Georgian Club Atlanta Wedding Photography | Elizabeth and Erik

Elizabeth and Erik’s Wedding at the Georgian Club – Atlanta Georgia
Post by David

We met Elizabeth and Erik at Lizzie and David’s Bloomington, Indiana wedding. We thought right then and there that these two were going to be lot of fun to work with, and after we shot their engagement session last fall we knew for sure. Their wedding was to take place in Atlanta, Georgia and after a long drive through a freak snow storm (btw, people in the south have no idea how to drive in the snow!) we arrived at our hotel and were ready to shoot their wedding the next day. We were excited to be down south, as we have some photographer friends down there and neither of us had done much more than drive through Atlanta.

The next morning we met up with Elizabeth at her parents’ house where I dropped Cathy off and headed over to the church to meet up with the guys. Erik was helping the band with their music that he had arranged for their ceremony (!) while Lizzie and David enjoyed the music. It felt like deja vu.:DTheir reception took place high atop an Atlanta building in the Georgian Club, which had some of the best service of any venue we’ve shot at (THANKS!). We really enjoyed how their reception hall was split up into multiple rooms, so people could converse without loud music in one, and dance in another, which we thought was a great idea for future brides.:)Despite all the snow and cold weather the wedding went beautifully, the people danced all night long to the totally awesome jazz band, and we were sad for the night to come to an end as the two waved goodbye from the window of their Mini-Cooper and drove off to start their lives together.

Elizabeth & Erik- Thank you two for being one the sweetest couples ever!  Hope you had a blast on your honeymoon!!!:)

On with the photos!

Meet Elizabeth!

Meet Erik!


I got this photo by taking around 12-15 images and then merging them together.:) 
One of my favorite photos.:)

Cathy’s favorite.

Might have to frame this one next to the garter toss shot from Annie and Josh’s Chicago wedding.
These two had us laughing all night long.:)
My favorite of the day, for sure.:D
It’s so hard not to follow around past bride and grooms we’ve shot, at weddings, like Lizzie and David here.:D
This might just be my fav bridal portrait that Cat has done.:)
A special thanks to Erik and Elizabeth for being so awesome and letting us share their special day with us.:DWe had so much fun with you two and can’t wait to show you the rest of your photos!:)

Thanks for reading! – David.

Champaign Country Club Wedding Photography | Holly and Todd

January 10, 2010

Wedding Photography Coverage at the Champaign Country Club – Champaign, Illinois
Post by David. – Cathy and David Photographers

We first talked to Holly and Todd about their New Year’s Eve wedding less than 4 weeks before it was to take place. They had just become engaged in October and after being together for three years, they simply couldn’t wait any longer.

So a couple of weeks later, with a fresh layer of snow upon the grounds of the Champaign Country Club, we met up with Todd an hour before the wedding. We found him in a bit of a panic and slightly worried for his bride to be. Apparently, the salon doing Holly’s hair was an epic fail, as they say, and after two hours of the stylist screwing up her hair, Holly had thrown up her arms and gone home to do it herself. Todd shouldn’t have been worried though. Holly did an amazing job and was an absolute joy, as the rest of the day went by flawlessly. We had so much fun with this couple, counting down the clock with them, laughing with their friends and family, and having such an awesome time for our last wedding of 2009, and first (:-D) wedding of 2010.

A special thank you to the Champaign Country Club for their amazing service, care and kindness. You guys were great!:)

Holly editing her vows.:)

In this shot: Bride, Groom, Flowers, Step-Mom, Childhood friend, Officiant. All at once.
“Booyah!” as Ashton Kutcher would say.:-DSorry. Love those Nikon commercials. LOL!

Quite possibly one of my favorite bridal portraits.:)

Love. ^_^

Holly and Todd were sweet enough to let us drag them outside when it was 11-degrees out.:-DThankfully they were hot enough.;)

Normally I don’t post things like family formals on the blog, but I just found this one too touching to resist.:)It might be my fav of the day.

We’re just as confused as you are.:)

Cathy’s favorite shot of the day.:)

Happy New Year’s!

These have to be quite possibly, the BEST senior portrait photos, EVER.:-DThey had pictures of their childhood at every table, each one a different age group.

Thanks for reading! – David.

Kia Gregory - January 15, 2010 - 10:14 pm

I love that shadowed hallway shot. There was something about it that was eerie AND beautiful at the same time. Eerily beautiful? That’s what I’m going with.

Brianna Phelan - January 14, 2010 - 9:32 pm

C&D you guys are masters of light! You rocked this! Love love love the shot with the green wall.

ProImage Weddings - January 11, 2010 - 2:27 pm

Stunning, clear, real, full of life. Awesome!

Carlene - January 11, 2010 - 11:12 am

What fabulous photographs (use of lighting, angles, color, etc.) and it must really exciting to have awesome subject matter!!

Meg @ Sienna Wedding - January 11, 2010 - 11:02 am

Absolutely gorgeous! I just LOVE the shot outside with the lights behind them. Stunning!

Fina - January 11, 2010 - 11:02 am

The emotions are captured perfectly! What a beautiful night! Congrats again Holly and Todd!

Jessika Feltz - January 11, 2010 - 12:42 am

Fantastic job, guys!! Loved the ones by the Christmas tree!! They looked so happy throughout the whole day!

Dad - January 10, 2010 - 11:16 pm

Definitely difficult to pick a favorite. Loved the colors and the shadowing of the feet on the hard wood floor, the intensity of the two in a tango and the gentleman holding the strings. However my favorite was the far away shot in the darkened hallway that was both romantic and mysterious. Well done.

Karalee - January 10, 2010 - 5:36 pm

Such a beautiful wedding and so stunningly captured. They look so perfectly happy :)

Maria Barker - January 10, 2010 - 2:29 pm

Stunning! I can’t believe they pulled together such a spectacular wedding in just four weeks. Beautiful!!

Jeanne - January 10, 2010 - 2:19 pm

Amazing photos Holly. You guys look so happy! Wish I could have been there, but these pics help me share the moment.
Love you tons!

Sharon - January 10, 2010 - 12:54 pm

What a teaser! Now I can’t wait to see all the wedding photos. Fantastic job, Cathy and David. It was a fun wedding, with many personal, precious moments. You caught some we didn’t know about. Love it, love it!

Lori Herrin - January 10, 2010 - 12:31 pm

It is totally impossible to pick out a favorite because they were all so well done. However, the gentlemen holding on to the strings of Holly’s dress and his expression was PRICELESS!!
Love you! Mom

Janice - January 10, 2010 - 12:24 pm

Stunning…when the subjects are perfect, so are the photos!

Christine Elizabeth - January 10, 2010 - 11:26 am

Fabulous! I love them! I can’t pick a fave, but I really love the groom and generations ;) Those moments always get me! And the black and white of them 3 from the end.

You guys totally rock! ;) Happy New Year!

Angi Davis - January 10, 2010 - 11:19 am

Pure AWESOME-NESS! I love her flowers and that dress…GAH!! Nicely done once again. Oh, and I’d never heard of this venue before, which is bad since I’ve lived here for over ten years. :O)
