So I’ve 2nd shot a few weddings since I started the internship with LeahAndMark.com but this one was a unique event. Mark had an idea. Mark told people about his idea. Mark put together his idea. Mark makes things happen. I was lucky enough to be around when it happened and snapped a few shots of my own. I wasn’t sure what was going down in Mark’s head – he definitely had a narrative he was aiming for. I was trying to find my own version. This …read more

So you’ve probably already seen Mark’s and +Raven’s posts about the styled shoot Raven set up a couple weeks ago. I dropped in and snapped a few photos of my own.

A Tea Sampler
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
A little while back, Intern Jennifer contacted me and we set up a small shoot at one of my favorite hidden spots in the Atlanta area. ZenTea. Much to the dismay of Mark, I don’t drink coffee. Instead, I’m an avid tea drinker. I ended up rambling a couple times to Jen and our two lovely models about the different kinds of teas and their different health benefits. I could go on and on and on about tea. But I won’t. What I will do …read more
wedding bells for D&A | 2nd shooting with +Raven
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Oh man, where to begin? I have a lot of photos… I guess I will my fall back of bullet points: +Raven, Sooji and I shot a wedding I was in Roswell – around the corner from our usual studio spot (who knew?) Everyone was amazing FOOD I COULD EAT! (not relevant to the photos… but more for my sanity) Everyone was laid back Weather was perfect That’s essentially it. + Raven got ahold of Sooji and I awhile back and asked if …read more
Chance
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Sometimes life gives you chances. You have to take them because they are rare. Whenever I was in NYC I missed the opportunity to see three people. No biggie because I did so much while I was there. But that’s when life threw me a bone. Sitting across the aisle on the same airplane as me was one of the three people I didn’t get to see. Abba. She’s awesome. We met in the performing arts department at SCAD. She has been working up in …read more
Inters old and new – Unite! @ Kai-Lin Gallery
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
I received an email out of the blue from Brittany Wages – LeahandMark.com intern alumni. She needed a second shooter for a new gallery opening up in the Buckhead area and I was all over it. I hadn’t had a chance to meet her and it seemed funny that we hand’t met. She is currently a student at SCAD and I’m and alumni. I find a pleasant little sense of irony it that little fact. Anyway – I showed up at the beautiful, pristine …read more
Swimming in photos
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Or drowning in them… I’m not too sure at the moment. As I write this post, I’m sitting next to Leah and +Debra at the Bellies to Babies event in downtown Atlanta. I’ll be honest. I’ve been taking so many photos at so many shoots I’m backed up on editing. I tend to write the posts right after the shoots happen to save time later, but now even that’s not enough. …read more
Brownies, a parking deck and flames
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
It’s funny how life works out sometimes. There is so much that has been going on that I can barely keep my head on straight. In the midst of the whirlwind of life I was able to catch up with a dear friend from the performing arts department at SCAD. She lives up here and works at a local theater. In catching up I was able to snag her away from her other duties to come out for a little photo shoot Megan set up. Megan shot …read more
Meet me 100%
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
This has been an intese experience. Everything is so jumbled right now, but it will all be worth it in the end. I’m doing something for my own sanity. I’m doing photography because I don’t have to worry. That’s not to say I think I’m ‘the shit’ or any thing like that. Quite the opposite. I keep talking a lot about SCAD in these posts, but that’s because that college was a big factor in every aspect of my life since Junior Year in High School. Honestly, …read more
2 Days – 2nd Shooting – 2000+ Photos
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Mark lives on gmail when he is not behind the camera. I live on my computer too because of my freelance graphic designs and a comic book I’m commissioned to work on. At one point Mark pops up and asks if I want to second shoot a wedding. I jumped at the opportunity. Though I didn’t know the details, I really wanted the chance to work a wedding and see how he managed such a hectic day. Off to North Carolina with Leah and …read more
A little spark is all you need
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
The title kinda says it all for me – but I know I can be very ambiguous. I saw a very blurry photo late one night on Facebook. It was of a dress a friend of mine from college had finished making. I knew for a while that I wanted to do a couple different photo shoots with this particular lady because she is such a unique character. We met in the Media …read more
There has to be an end…
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
So today is oficially the last day of the internship. Holy … this was intense. I don’t want to stop. I feel like there is so much to say about – everything – but I just don’t know where to start. (Pin-Up Shoot with +Raven) I know there was a long pause in my postings, again. And I really need to be better about it. I was on so many different photoshoots that I couldn’t keep up. I came into this internship ready …read more
