we absolutely love shooting engagements and weddings with “real” people. it’s what we do.

every once in a while, however, we think it’s important to get our creative juices flowing. so we set up a shoot for a group of atlanta photographers with models, a makeup artist, and awesome locations. not only do we have a blast meeting and shooting with other photographers, but it also inspires us to think out of the box and try new things. here’s some shots from the day.

we stopped by our favorite place to watch movies during the summer (2 for the price of 1!), starlight six drivein. they’re awesome about letting us roam the lots!

you know what else was awesome? the models we snagged. michele, angela, and chad froze their booties off for us and still managed to look amazing!

i’ve always wanted to get photos like the two below. chad was an awesome smoker. is that bad to say?

next stop, the atlanta prison farm. you’ve seen us shoot (and video) there before. it recently got vandalized by fire, but we still found some awesome places to shoot.

another photog shot – everyone worked so well together

amazing shot taken by our intern, Colleen. she’s the coolest.

another shot from colleen.

such a fun day! if you’re a photog in the atlanta area and are interested in going on shoots like this with us, join our facebook page – we’d love to have you!

remember the old prison farm we found close to our house?  heather + tim saw our post on it and said they HAD to do their engagement photos there because tim works at a prison and well, it would just be awesome!  so we were excited to do it!  they also drove down from south carolina to shoot there!

can you tell they had a good time?  :)
