Young Love – Atlanta wedding photographer photographs young couple at the farm

Ahhhh, young love.  You know, the kind of love that just can’t be disguised.  The kind that is apparent to everyone around.  When two young people who are so in love that their happiness just sort of pours forth, you can’t help but be infected by some of their happiness yourself.  That’s what this shoot was like for me.

This couple has been married for a short time and asked me to photograph them at the farm.  They wanted portraits that were relaxed and fun and showed them as they truly are — together.  Of course I agreed and I met them at my favorite farm – The Farm at Pamelot in Milton Georgia — on a very hot and humid summer evening.  It had been a long day for me already and I was tired.  My kids were out of school and I had spent the day shuffling them to various activities.  Plus, did I mention that it was about a gazillion degrees out?

So, to be completely honest, I was probably not in the greatest mood that evening.  When the couple arrived we started the session just taking a few shots by a picnic bench and some bushes.  Within ten minutes it was clear that these two were simply adorable.

He looked at her in a way that simply said “I love you” without needing words.

And she giggled.

He put his arm around her waist.

And she giggled.

He pushed a hair out of her eyes.

And she giggled.

Soon I was smiling just watching them together.  And of course, I kept clicking away!  And she kept giggling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course I was also smiling because the lighting at the farm on a gorgeous (but have I said how hot it was?) summer evening is simply luxurious and this evening was no different.

As the session went on these two walked and talked and it was clear that, while already married, their honeymoon is far from over.  The young love they share is priceless.  My goal was to give them photographs that capture it so that when they look back 10, 20, even 50 years from now, they too will be unable to suppress a smile and feel this way all over again!

Thanks to this beautiful couple for letting me capture this special time in their lives together!
