Indian Weddings


I want to say one of the most colorful and beautiful ceremonies is the ones from the Indian culture. Since working at www.atlantaartisticweddings.com I have gotten the honor of photographing Indian weddings and engagement parties. You can see examples of the engagment party I shot by following the link Atlanta Artistic Weddings Indian Engagement Party. At the site you can see the henna Tattoos and the colorful sarongs. It was so great to see everyone dressed in their traditional clothing and celebrating their culture together. As you can tell from the photographs it is a Atlanta Wedding Photographer's Dream!!!

What to look for in a Church when you are having your wedding

I have done many weddings at many different church locations through out Atlanta and the surrounding areas. The one thing that can be said that everyone will agree on is that they are all different! Each religion, minister, church group and church have different rules about what a person can and can not do. It is important to look over the church's rules and to ask as many questions that you can so there are no supprizes. I have talked to many people who think that when they rent a church then they can do as they please. But churches have very unique and specific rules that everyone has to respect. As I have said before I am (the photographer) not the most important person at the wedding. The most important thing is the ceremony and the couple. I don't use flash because I don't want to take away from the couple of the scanity of the ceremony. I am not going to be the obnoxious wedding photographer going behind you during the ceremony.

As always ask questions and look around at the different churches to have your wedding. I know there is one out there that will suit you, your wedding and your beliefs. If you have any questions please email me at david@atlantaatisticweddings.com or you can also look at google maps to find a church that is close to your reception venue or home.

Atlanta Artistic Weddings

I was recently asked what I like about doing weddings and I responded everything! I especially love doing weddings at historical locations around this great town Atlanta. I have worked with some great professionals and I have shared them at my site www.atlantaweddingphotographer.com. I have listed DJs, musicians, wedding planers and locations that I thought were great. I have also made a map of some the great locations atwww.atlantaweddingphotographer.info. It is a interactive map showing a photograph from www.atlantaartisticweddings.com and a location of the venue. I have designed the map to help brides and grooms to find a convenient location wedding location around Atlanta.



Some of my favorite locations are the historical venues. As some of you know I have been a full time photographer for different archeology and historic research firms around Atlanta for close to 20 years. I have learned truly appreciate some of the greatest historical sites in the state. My most recent find is the Brasselton Stover House.



You can see images of the facility at their web site at www.braseltonstoverhouse.com. It is located outside of Atlanta in the Braselton Historic District. There you will Mary and Marvin Stover. They are real down home people that will do their best to make your wedding a day to remember. They have recently added a addition to the back of the historic mansion. You can see some photography I shot there at my site www.atlantaartisticweddings.com There are so many interesting places to shot there from the front porch to the side yard with the historical barns. Also the facility has one of the best bridal rooms of any facility I have seen. It is a really under appreciated wedding facility at a great price!
