Jesse and Rachel - 2018.

Jesse is a face that isn’t any stranger to the blog. You may better recognize him as the brain and body behind Solar Wolf Cosplay, and because of the several costumes he has had me document for him over the last two years.

Jesse and his soon to be wife Rachel approached me for some engagement photos that best captured them in some of their favorite places in Atlanta, The DragonCon hotel trinity.

It was strange being able to walk around without bumping into folks, and it was much more quiet than I ever expected downtown could be, but overall I think I captured them both well as a couple.

And of course, what’s else says “fun engagement shoot” without a few outtakes :P

Jessica and Thomas - 2017.

I'm fairly certain I met Jessica and Thomas when we shared a room at DragonCon a few years ago, but for all I know (and I even asked) we could have met before. 

Sometime later Jessica became a huge supporter of me and my photographic career. We always talked about shooting, but things never seemed to line up. 

When Thomas asked for Jessica's hand in marriage at this year's Con, the decision was made that it was in fact time for us all to work together.

And because you can't get a bunch of nerds together without having a moment of "we should dress like Mortal Kombat characters and run around a park". It was decided that some additional fun had to be had.

Congratulations to you two, here is to many loving years together.

Oh, and Thomas. FINISH HER...or something.
