Hello Everyone! Switching gears today and bringing you an amazing surprise proposal. It’s no secret I love surprise proposals and I have covered a few in the past. This one was special because I happen to know the soon to be bride and groom! I’ve known Samuel for about 10 years so I’ve seen him transition from a teen to a Man. When he told me about his big plan I was so excited and could not wait to capture the proposal. We laid out our plan and with the help of his friends we executed it perfectly. I usually share the proposal story all at once for you to read before viewing the pictures but today I am going to do it differently. I will break the story up and put them next to the image to fits the part of the story best. Congrats to Samuel and Bukky! I wish you both the very best.  Check out the images and story below (Bukky’s version). Enjoy!

So I have always loved ferris wheels, so i have been bugging him for months to take me on the Atlanta Skyview (a ferris wheel in downtown Atlanta). He finally agreed to take me on friday and then we planned to head to a friend’s birthday dinner afterwards. On our way to Skyview i noticed that he was acting weird….quiet, not really paying attention, etc. I asked what was wrong and he said he was tired so i let it go. We went on the ferris wheel as planned (LOVED IT! lol)

After he suggested that we walk over to Centennial Olympic Park by the water fountains.

When we got there i told him that we needed to take a break and sit by the benches (My feet hurt, lol).

while we were sitting there i heard our song (Joe-No one else comes close:)) And i looked at him and said it was odd because its a slow song and its an old song for them to be playing at the park.

He suggested we go closer the fountain…

..and when we got down there i saw one of his friends (Dj Ecool) standing behind a speaker

By the time i turned to him and asked what was going on he had started his “proposal speech” and then the tears came! lol.

I saw Steve (Fotos by Fola) with a camera….

He got on his knee…

…. then i heard screaming and shouting and looked up to see a huge crowd of our family and friends running towards us!!!!

Of course i said yes and he put the ring (AKA Rock) on my finger!

We have been dating since we were 16, so it was truly the best moment of my life as the man of my dreams asked me to become his queen just as the sun set in the background, the water fountain erupted, and family and friends cheered and supported us.

Hello Everyone. Hope you had a great weekend. I am excited to share this E-session not because it’s another E-session but because Mathilda & Osa are “my peoples” lol. I’ve known Mathilda for a looong time. We hung out/partied a lot  back in the days (and still do) and I was always taking pictures with cheap camera’s..lol. When I look back I remember vividly Mathilda telling me how nice those pics from the “cheap camera’s” were and that I should consider taking up professional photography. I did not think too much about it back then but here I am now doing it years later 🙂

For the shoot Mathilda and Osa had a great idea of a vintage/retro e-session so we worked together and put this awesome shoot together. We hit up Stats Atlanta, Centennial Olympic Park and The Biltmore Ballrooms. I had a blast. Congrats guys! I am truly looking forward to your big day! Check out the story of how it all started and some images from the shoot . Enjoy!

It was a Saturday like any other, I was relaxing after a long week at work. A couple of the guys had asked me to come out that night but I had passed because I was exhausted. One of my very good friends Bose called to let me know that there was a 40th birthday party she wanted to invite me too. Initially I refused because I was so tired but then my sister from another Mother, Sase, called to ask what was going on that night, I told her about the party but told her I was not sure I was going but she eventually convinced me to go, Sase is persuasive like that, her mouth sweet well, well. So I jumped in the shower and got dressed, went to pick up Sase and was prepared to not stay very long at the event. We walk in and as I surveyed the room I notice her. Standing tall, commanding the room, gorgeous and with the most beautiful smile I have ever seen. She had this mane of hair on her head, looking all Amazonian and herbal. But there was one problem she was hanging around this guy almost the whole night so I was not sure she was single (he would turn out to be her older brother). I kept my eye on her all night and eventually she moved from the guy’s table to a table with a group of 5 – 6 of her girlfriends. As any man with sense knows, it is extremely dangerous to try to penetrate a pack of babes in the wild, especially when you are not sure the lady you are after is single. So I sent Sase to  do some Mission Impossible and Inspector Gadget work for me. Sase came back and said that the coast was clear, she was single and that her name was Dupe. The whole time Sase was giving me grief because she said I was “dulling” and I should just go talk to her. But a gentleman waits until the right moment abi? When I saw my opening, I walked up to her. She had her back to me, I put my hand on the small of her back, leaned in and said Dupe Right? She turned around and smiled……and the rest is history

Love, joy, happiness and excitement was the vibe throughout this e-session. You can’t ask for anything better than that!   Laid back and fun are the words i would use to describe Cassandra and Shelton. I had a great time with them and i am really looking forward to their wedding early next year. Check out some shots from this session which took place at the Centennial Olympic Park Atlanta. Enjoy!

Exact spot Shelton proposed to Cassandra (Great acting..lol)
