Titan Country :: {north ga senior photographer}
It won’t be long the Dragons of Jefferson (my hometown team) and the North Oconee Titans will be going at it on the ole grid iron. Well I was at the home of the Titans this past week and it wasn’t for a football game, it was for yet another incredible senior shoot! A past co-worker of mine booked me to shoot her daughter Breanna… they had several locations already picked out and in mind. The session went great despite the heat…. Breanna was a little shy out of the gate but warmed up quickly and the smiles were shining from then on. Here are a few shots from the session… ::
Mansions and Mustangs :: {north ga senior photographer}
Sooooo…. another senior session and more great shots. This girl Bridget is friends with this girl Carly (parking deck GTO… ring a bell) who I a shot just a few weeks ago. Thanks to word of mouth I was able to finally break into the Banks County market (uh oh…. the photography monopoly may be over)… Go Leopards (whats up coach Hanley!!!…. we graduated together by the way everybody)…. Anyway this shoot like the rest was pretty cool. It was taken at a house that probably could put most to shame that has been on MTV Cribs tv show….. this place was absolutely amazing, we actually could have done the whole session there! Anyway after I picked my jaw up off the ground we got started shooting. Also…. Bridgets dad is friends with Carlys dad and he has the kick tail GTO… well Bridgets dad brought out a 1969 Mustang Mach 1…. wow!! Man I have been lucky thus far shooting some pretty cool vehicles with some just as cool seniors… (is cool still cool to say?…. maybe I should substitute the word “sick”… I learned that one last session =)… okay anyway…. here is a sneak peek from the session at the mansion ::
“Sick”… Senior Session :: {north ga senior photographer}
Another great senior session… not only because it has some kick a## pictures, but because I have learned a new meaning for an old word… Sick [sik] adjective: – crazy, cool and insane. This word was used a few times during the session and in a few comments on the post… I kinda like it, I like the idea that my work is “sick” 
…. Anyway, other than learning a new term this session, it was pretty awesome. I love stepping outside of the norm if you know me and this session like the others so far this year was just that. Very cool locations and ideas I must say… Lori (the cool mom) and Andrew came up with them all on their own…. they told me me what and i shot it with my own twist. My favorite was obviously the baseball field and I think that the weight room turned out well too… or “sick”…lol. Anyway check out these “sick” sneak peeks::
Hott and Humid :: {southeast wedding photographer}
I am very excited about this couple…. they booked me awhile back for their wedding up in Asheville NC this October…. this fall… leaves changing…. in a valley between two mountains…. can you tell I am somewhat, okay a lot excited about it. PLUS its a destination wedding for me… (Scott loves destination weddings). They came down on Tuesday to go ahead and do their engagement session. As I remembered details from the venue in Asheville, I thought about the perfect place here that resembles similar to what she was describing… anyway we loaded up and went to a buddy of mines place too shoot and Jessica could not have been more pleased with the grounds. Wait till she see’s these sneak peeks… without and more lip from me, here are a few:
Down on the Farm :: {north ga wedding photographer}
Jessica and Kyle…. a couple of very nice and down earth people…. I mean farmers. I met Jessica last year I believe it was, she had booked me for a normal portrait session of her and Kyle (between us i think it was a test run…lol …. they seem to have liked what they got and the process of getting the shots because I was lucky enough to get booked for their wedding coming up in October at Tucker Plantation… I can’t wait! We shot their “official” engagement session yesterday and boy was it fun. They are farmers off course and love the rustic look of just good ole farm land and…. it made for some great pictures! Their story is pretty cool and Jessica wanted to incorporate a lot of their special moments into this session. I am so looking forward to their wedding as I know we will really get some great pictures… Here are a few from the engagement:
2012 Senior… Wright Here, Wright Now :: {athens ga senior photographer}
Senior session 1 of 2 for this week… and this was a great one. Carly’s mom and I have been planning this session for about 2 weeks and I think we pretty much planned it perfectly. We got some GREAT pictures in some very cool locations. Thanks to Mr. Perry for bringing along his 1960′s Pontiac GTO…. A pretty bad a%# car by the way. I knew from the beginning that these were going to be some awesome shots…. because when they look good on the LCD screen… they are going to be great on the big screen!! Carly was quite the model, she didn’t say much but she was deff working the camera. Oh and for the record… when we shot in the tall grass, she was not afraid of the weeds and the unseen critters running around… really she wasn’t =). So without anymore delay… here we go:
Looking for Strikes :: {jefferson ga senior photographer}
Class of 2012 seniors continue with Mr. Blair… Blair is the brother of BC whom I shot his wedding back in May. We planned this shoot a few weeks ago… and if you know me or my work then you know that I am all about something different… I was reminded that Blair was a pretty incredible bowler (or that’s how he worded it lol)… so you know me I want to get some shots inside the bowling alley. OH YEAH… thanks to Jefferson Lanes for opening up and letting us in for about 30 minutes to shoot. So after the bowling we hit up the football and ended with whats becoming the trademark for SGP Seniors… the car shoot…lol. Here are a few sneak peeks from the session::
Bo-man on the Playground :: {children photographer jefferson, ga}
Bo’s turn for another round of birthday pictures… We shot these this afternoon on JES playground. With rain moving through just a few hours before us and a 7:15 birthday party at the Mexican Restaurant, we hit the window to shoot just right! He is a fast one to try and catch on camera… thats the truth! I ended up getting some great shots from the shoot… here are few sneak peeks… now if you will excuse me we are going to eat Mexican for Bo’s b-day =)
Lil Fields :: {athens ga children photographer}
Blog post number 3 for me tonight, but I just had to finish this session because it was soo sweet. This is pretty cool because Cassie has been cutting my hair for several years now and over those years I have heard stories of her engagement, of her wedding, of her pregnancy and now I finally got the chance to take pictures of lil Meadow her one year old daughter! I tell you what though… if she works the camera when she gets older like she did today… moma and daddy might have a lil super model on their hands =) Here are a few sneak peeks from today’s session:
2012 Senior Session :: {athens senior photographer}
Have I mentioned that I like creative photography…. maybe once or twice if I had to guess! That is the biggest reason that I love doing the senior sessions, they all want something new and uniquely to themselves and that is what keeps me pushing the envelope to the next session. Ms. Hanna booked me a few weeks ago and we did a lil planning on where we would start shooting and where we would end up. I must say that this whole shoot was fun, but for me the very end of it was the best because…. we were racing against the sun and the remaining light of day that was left to steal a few more awesome shots before it got dark… well that is exactly what happened… so congrats to Hanna on her upcoming senior year and she is kicking it off right with some awesome pictures… check out a few from the session.
Broke the ICE for 2012 :: {senior photographer}
Soooo this year so far has been a good one for starting out with a bang!… My first wedding of this years season was at Piedmont Park and Park Tavern, and I set the bar high for the rest of my wedding season. Well it looks as if I may have done the same thing again except with the kick-off of my senior season. I had this shoot last night with Ms. Paige whom goes to the same high school that I graduated from… (Go Dragons and whats up coach DuBose!) and this shoot was just fun all the way around. We collaborated for about two weeks or so kicking around a few ideas and naming a few locations… finally it all came together. She did her thing and let me do mine… and together we got some GREAT shots to kick of her senior year and my senior season. We pretty much covered it all in this shoot from beautiful portraits, old grunge backgrounds, cool commercial like vehicle shots to even some good ol’ attitude looks Jtown style! I hear Paige is pretty good at softball and wins coaches awards in golf, but she surely was a natural in front of the camera… almost as if she has done this for. Maybe I will get the chance to work with her again on down the road. I want to give a quick thank you to Hillary (the light lady) for holding my lights as I forgot my stands… Thanks! For more info on my senior sessions click here or contact me directly. Here are a few images from Paige’s session:
The Jinks Family :: {athens ga photographer}
I choose to shoot a very limited number of family sessions each year… well this past Sunday was one of the few that I will shoot this year. A great family… the Jinks. I go to church with two of them and they ended up buying a gift certificate from me before Christmas to give to the mom for family pictures. We shot at a favorite hot spot in downtown Athens… the session went well even though it was 90+ degrees outside… Here are just a few from the session:
so this first one was me just playing around waiting…. i kept it =)
The Thackers Wedding! :: {north ga wedding photographer}
So it’s been quite sometime since my last blog post… I have been slacking a bit, but there is no better motivation for a blog post than a great wedding to show. I shot Savannah and Ben’s engagement pictures a few months ago… (remember, that was the flat tire day), and well it was finally time for the big day. Ben and Savannah decided to do a “First Look” (as I think all brides should do =) so we got tons of great pictures without being rushed. Minus the squal line storm that came thru just as th ereception started… the day went perfect. Here is a little sneak peek of the day:
Ahhhh the intimate “First Look”……
Trashing the Dress Mountain Style :: {north ga wedding photographer}
Well the time had finally came… time for part 3 of Ms. Ashley’s Trash the Dress (TTD) session. This was originally supposed to be done last Sept , but after a few reschedules later… here we are and boy was it worth it! I have been looking forward to this water session for awhile. We have previously shot the Country/Urban session and the Junkyard session and now the infamous water session! (OH YEAH… anybody thinking of doing this but is a little timid of ruining their dress… guess what… after all of these session I am taking her dress and getting it dry cleaned and it will be as good as new….. so seeeeee you don’t have to ruin it to Rock It.) Anyway…. I had this place in mind since day one of shooting a few of my buddies fishing here some 4 years ago. Ashley and her mom jumped in the ol truck with me and off we went. After an hour or better ride and some misdirections from TomTom and Casey… thanks bud, we had finally arrived…. well I’m not sure what else I can say other than this was a FUN shoot not only for me but I think for Ashley as well…. The water was pretty frigid still but like a champ she had her game face on…. I’ll hush now and let you see.
For booking information on a Trash the Dress or a Rock the Dress… please contact me at scott@greeneworks.net or 706.296.5634.
Triplets at Hurricane Shoals {Children Photographer}
Session two of the Crib, Crawl and Walk package with these three little triplets…. If you ever thought shooting a six month old was tough, try 3! These guys did well though…. the adults out numbered the kids by one. Mom and dad brought help in the form of grandparents. We decided on Hurricane Shoals Park for this session…. it was close by and we were all familiar with it but boy was it HOT! Anyway here is a sneak peek from the session:
Mr and Mrs Cain {athens ga wedding photographer}
Soooo NOW I can post the real deal. Carley and Brandon are officially hitched and documented. Since day one Carley trusted me with the direction to and creativity for her pictures. I strongly convinced her to do a “First Look” and she accepted and it was great… just ask her about it! We did the first look on north campus at the University of Georgia and their wedding reception was at the Commerce Civic Center. Well… there isn’t much more I can say about this wonderful couple that I haven’t already said in their previous two post (engagement and bridal). But I would like to thank them for letting me be a part of their special day… Thanks Guys! Check a few pictures from the big day!
A Poole of Fire: Trash the Dress {wedding photographer}
Got a phone call about 2 months ago from Mr. Poole… he had just been recently married at Hurricane Shoals Park and was looking on Google images and some of mine just happened to pop up (thank you blog =)… well he wanted my TTD aka Trash the Dress… services! I was delighted of course because these are one of my most favorite type of sessions to shoot… We corresponded a few times via email and he showed me some ideas of what him and Brandi were thinking…. and well as soon as I saw fire as one of the examples… Scott got all excited about this shoot (yes I just spoke in 3rd person!). Brandi and Josh put back on there wedding attire from that special day in March…. and we did a little ‘trashing”. The session worked out good with the old junk cars as it went with what was kind of a “rocking 40′s and 50′s look”. Here are some of the shots from the Poole’s Trash the Dress:
Mr. Bray at Staghorn Chapel {children photographer}
Mr Bray at Staghorn Chapel… the son of an old basketball team mate and friend of mine… was quite the character to shoot. His mom and dad got married at Staghorn somr years ago so when I was contacted and to take pictures of lil Brock… Staghorn Chapel was mentioned and it only made sense to shoot there where the family first began. Here are a few from the session of lil Brock man!
Rock that Dress Mrs.Cain {wedding photographer}
So Carley the day is here… obviously I have written this post before your wedding date, but I know you would kill me if I posted before hand so I won’t! Anyway for those of you guys out there… like I mentioned before in Carley and Brandon’s engagement session… she told me some 3 years ago that I was going to shoot her wedding and well I am either shooting it today on 5/21 or I have shot it yesterday b/c this is the Sunday after…. WELL now that we are all confused, here are a few pics from Carley’s bridals that we took two weeks prior to her wedding date…. she may call them bridals but I am putting these under my “Rock the Dress” category… way to go Carley =)… PS- she took a few special ones for her new husband the football coach, see if you can spot them! (had fun shooting the wedding tonight)
Macy T: Year One Done {kids photographer}
Ms. Macy’s Year One package is a wrap. We took her final session pictures of the package this past Sunday and like the other 3 sessions she did not disappoint. Macy has always been a well tempered baby or at least every time that I have had the opportunity to shoot her…. I will admit she was a bit more challenging this go around as she was walking, talking, laughing and clapping but I managed to grab her attention for some great shots…. here are a few from the session:
Wedding at Callanwolde Arts Center { atlanta photographer }
So… I think I have stated many times before… I LOVE TO SIDE SHOOT!!!!! =) I have various photographers that side shoot with me and in return they use me from time to time… well this past Saturday I had the privileged to shoot with the very talented Allyson Warrington of AGW Photography. The location of the wedding was a very beautiful place. The Callanwolde Fine Arts Center. So many photographic areas to shoot on the outside and on the inside. Here are just a few of my shots from the wedding:
Nate at Hurricane Shoals { kid photographer }
It was time for me to shoot Mr. Nate again… (Nate Dawg!!!!…. sorry just had to say that, one of my favorite rappers from way back in my high school years). Anyway…. this Nate is not a rapper but I think he’s going to be a runner…. kid is fast! I got some good shots with Mr. Nate… it took a few hiding and peek-a-boo games but we nailed it… Good job Nate! Here are a few shots from the session at Hurricane Shoals Park:
All Aboard { Jefferson, GA Photographer }
Man… this guy is growing fast! I remember shooting little Blake when he was just 3 months old… we have had a session together every year now and now they little guy is 4. Wow… time flies. We have shot about at most of my hot spots for kids, but his mom said he was into trains…. well luckily Jefferson has no shortage of train tracks and or train cars… here are a few from the session:
Andi and Thomas are Married { Atlanta Wedding Photographer }
I tell you what… 2011 has blessed me with some great weddings thus far and even better couples! This wedding, no doubt is one of my favorites thus far. Thomas and Andi booked me awhile back ( thanks for the referral from Stacey Cooke Photography )and I drove down to his property near Peachtree City to scout the layout of the land… well it was and is a photographers paradise. The day actually started a little shakey for me… Thomas and Andi didn’t know this until now, but as I headed over to shoot Andi’s hair pictures I pulled my back out as I was putting my gear in my car and I was in some serious pain all day (ouch)….. AND to top that off as it wasn’t already enough, the beautiful hay fields that we shot in and were around for about 12 hours severely aggravated my allergies, but again I wasn’t going to let any of that slow me down on this big day…. and bust it wide open we did. Thomas and Andi, to say at the least, are some of the nicest and and most sincere people you could ever meet…. Andi has already booked a Trash the Dress with me in August… I can’t wait for that day, maybe we can get Thomas to put on an old suit to fill in the part as well =)… anyway I had a difficult time picking a few to post so here are a lot…lol. Thanks Guys!
