Bryan and Abby

March 22nd, 2008  |  Published in engagement, lifestyle  |  10 Comments

I’ve known Bryan for a long time now. He’s an incredible financial adviser, talented actor and mad skills as a cook. Now he’s outdone himself by finding a wonderful girl! Bre, I mean, Abby (inside joke) is beautiful, fun, has a great smile and is totally in love with Bryan. Yep, he’s definitely marrying up!

I had an incredible time with them. We ran around laughing and having a great time “chasing the light” when the sun happened to peak through the clouds. It felt like the sun was playing cruel tricks on us — it seemed that every time we got a location where the sun was shining, it disappeared between the clouds again!

Check out the bling!

Yeah, this is probably my favorite shot of the day. Beautiful light makes ALL the difference in the world! What a fun pic! Bryan is definitely “too cool for school” here.

Thank you, city of Chattanooga, for building such architecturally interesting structures!

There’s that sun again!

And there it goes:

Just so we don’t take ourselves too seriously:

I really enjoyed my time with you! I’m really excited for you both! Enjoy your slideshow!

    Dear Rich, I like the new website. I checked out Bryan and Abby’s page: Love, love, love the close-ups and playful candids like on the grass! Your photos past and present always impress, from the lighting to background and so on. And then to top it off, this is the second time I’ve seen photos of friends and I’ve gotta say you capture people’s personalities. For all the words a photo captures, you didn’t miss a thing. Bryan and Abby are absolutely adorable together, beautiful, thoughtful,fun and in love, and that came through the lens! Our family wishes you all the best!

    Rich,
    I have never met you but Bryan and I have been long time friends since college and I HAD to see his engagement shots. I’ve been married for 2.5 years now and live in Atlanta, , and this is BY FAR the best photography I’ve seen! Where have you been all my life?!
    You not only capture the spirit and personality of these two, but you caught the heart of Chattanooga, that great town that I miss so much from our college days. You have an incredible eye for the not-so-obvious-but-oh-so-intriguing angles. Don’t stop.

    And perhaps my husband and I can use you sometime to shoot us!
