Pups and Love : Lifestyle Session in Atlanta, GA

The wedding industry can be a hard one.

Sometimes there is a lot of animosity and competition, and it’s hard to make true friends! Along the way on my journey to becoming an established photographer here in Atlanta, I met Margaret Snider. She is one of the most amazing people inside and out, and so talented to boot! She has done a few shoots with me, and I highly recommend her as a sweet, genuine person, AND a talented professional makeup artist.

One day we were chatting about making friends in the industry. Not just being friendly, but being FRIENDS. Actually caring, not just talking work, and looking out for each other. She mentioned Danielle to me. I had been following Danielle’s amazing work as a wedding designer and planner on Instagram under her company name, Detailed I Do’s, for awhile, but I didn’t have the guts to reach out! Again, this industry can be so intimidating, and I was just too nervous to reach out to someone who had such success and great work!

But, after Margaret encouraged me to reach out, I did. Much to my suprise, Danielle wrote me back the very same day, and we made plans to meet!

So, meet Danielle.

She is the owner, founder, and lead designer of her company, Detailed I Do’s. Specializing in full service wedding planning and design, she has impeccable taste, which was demonstrated in her gorgeous, mid-century modern, renovated home. She kindly invited me into her home to take photos of her, her husband Chris, and their two fur babies!

I can’t wait to see our friendship grow, and see where this year takes Danielle on her wedding adventures!
