This past Saturday in Duluth, Georgia, which is just northeast of Atlanta, I shot Katie & Steven’s wedding. A couple of months ago, I shot Katie’s bridal session at Augusta State University and now I can show those to everyone. I love the way these turned.
Last week, I had an engagement session with Rachael and Nate at the Savannah Rapids Pavilion. Rachael actually grew up in Augusta, but now lives in Athens, GA while attending the University of Georgia. Both her and Nate had come down for the day just for their engagement session. The light of nearly perfect for the entire session.
I can’t wait for their wedding coming up in October later this year. Oh how I love those fall weddings.
Here’s just a few of the photos from the session, but if you’d like to be notified when the rest of the photos are released into their gallery, please CLICK HERE and send it your information. Once their released, you’ll get an email detailing how to access the photos.

Caroline and Jason’s wedding was somewhat very familiar to me. The wedding ceremony was held at her parents beautiful house in Waynesboro, GA and the wedding reception was held in an open field under a massive white tent. Both locations were decorated and setup oh so nicely.
The reason for it being so familiar to me is because about three years ago I photographed, Caroline’s sister, Catherine’s wedding. Both were at their parents house, but not in the same location. Both receptions were setup in or near an open field but not anywhere near the same place. Caroline’s was at Jason’s parents farm and Catherine’s was at her parents river house.
Everything was perfect for the wedding. Slightly overcast (no ugly shadows on the face), a cool breeze, awesome light and great people to photograph. The reception was setup with all sorts of decorations which you’ll see below. Caroline, Jason and both their parents really put a lot of time, effort and thought into the reception. It was one of the best receptions I’ve attended.
To Caroline and Jason – thank you being such a great couple to work with. I truly see the love you have for each other. Your wedding and reception was nothing short of spectacular.

The groom’s cake was done by Sarah-Ann of Baking by Sarah Ann. Not only was the cake so unique and detailed, but it was so yummy. Her cakes are always the best.

Wow, I can’t believe I’ve had to wait this long to post some images from this wedding. It was beautiful. We’ve gotten everything moved from Augusta, Georgia to Lexington, SC. The essentials are setup, the utilities are on, DirecTV totally rocks and the kids are headed back to school tomorrow. I’ll some photos of the house later this week to post.
Caroline and Noah’s wedding several weeks ago in March was perfect. Perfect weather which made all of the dogwoods bloom and create such a lovely setting for their wedding at the First Presbyterian Church in downtown Augusta, Georgia.
Here a few of my favorites I picked during the initial viewing.

So I’ll give a brief explanation to this, but yes, it’s true, we’re moving!!
BUT NOT FAR.
Next week, both me and my two adorable little girls are moving from Augusta, GA to Lexington, SC (which is just outside of Columbia, SC). It’s only about an hour from Augusta, so it’s not too far from where I’ve lived my entire 31 years.
So here’s a little story behind the move. Approximately two and a half years ago, my mom decided to take a job and move away from us. Mom could have been promoted long before that, but she choose to stay in Augusta, close to family, and raise me and a little brother and sister and see that we all finished high school. Thanks Mom, the sacrifices you’ve made for us, are unmeasurable and will always be remembered. Back to the story. She moved with the bank, but it wasn’t she’d be living in Atlanta or Charlotte, oh no, she and Dad and sister we’re moving to Syracuse, NY. Freakin Syracuse. Far, far away. While I didn’t necessarily like this, I knew it’s what Mom wanted to do to further her career. We all really missed having her around while she was there. She worked with the bank to only work in Syracuse for 2 years then try to find something closer to us in the South.
Two years passed, a low and behold her time was up and the bank had found Mom a job closer to us. The new position would be in Columbia, SC. Only an hour away. HALLELUJAH! So once Mom and Dad had found a house in Lexington, SC, I knew it was time to move. I’ve always been close to my Mom. She’s a savvy businesswoman, has a huge heart for helping and developing people. She is just an awesome person to talk to (plus her cooking rocks).
So, starting next Tuesday, March 30, 2010, Lawrence Kent Photography will be moving from Augusta, GA to Lexington, SC.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
1. Starting Tuesday, March 30, 2010, I’ll be closed for moving and setting up the business in Lexington, SC. I will be closed until April 13, 2010. During that time, I will very limited access to the internet. I will be checking email from my iPhone throughout the day and will try to respond in the evenings. Please bare with me during this transition.
2. I will no longer live in Augusta, Georgia. I will live in Lexington, South Carolina.
3. I will continue to be available for weddings, Georgia weddings, South Carolina weddings, wedding everywhere.
WHAT THIS DOES NOT MEAN?
1. I have not sold my business, portraits OR weddings. I have not gone OUT of business. I have not quit photography.
2. I have not stopped taking wedding commissions.
3. I have not dropped off of the face of the earth.
I am very excited about what is to come and thank you for allowing me to explain the move and what it meansand what this means to my clientele. Many exciting things are coming soon such as a new portfolio, new look, and general spring-cleaning of our online presence.
Here is the new contact information:

I was so proud to shoot this weekend for Amanda and Steve. Not because they were both just awesome clients and genuinely in love but because both serve in our Armed Forces. Amanda serves our country based out of Tennessee and Steve serves in North Carolina and when they return from their honeymoon (in Spain – no fair!!) they will return to their separate bases. In May (which is just a short time away) Amanda is getting deployed to Afghanistan. They are trying to work it to where Steve will also get deployed close to where Amanda will be, but nothing has come up yet.
Their wedding was absolutely beautiful. Very small and intimate with close family and friends. The entire day was very laid and flowed smoothly. The weather totally cooperated for us. Mild temperatures in the high 60′s and very little breeze.
To Amanda and Steve – thank you so for letting me share in your day and help make the memories to share with you and everyone.
Also, be sure to sign up to be notified of when the remaining images are posted online. Click here to SIGN UP!! Below are several images from their wedding day. I had so many excellent I wanted to share, so the images will be broken up into two different parts. Here’s Part 1!
