Can you even remember what our lives used to be like before the internet? Really… how did we ever live? How did we ever function? As business owners, one of the most important questions to ask is, “How did you find out about us?” I’m sure that as you filled out surveys, that’s a very common question and that’s because it’s so crucial for businesses! We need to know because that’s what determines how you advertise which is key to the success of any company. (Well, one of anyways.) For our next couple, the bride’s mom contacted us because she found us on Google! Out of all the ways someone can find us, that’s the one that is the most mind blowing to me! So to that I say, “Thank you Internet!” :) But really, this connection with Elissa + Mats was so sweet. Have you ever met someone in your life where you felt so much sense of peace when you met them or talked to them? If I had to choose one word to describe this couple, “peaceful” is the one I would choose. The booking process was smooth like butter…. It was just so…. easy! Planning their engagement portraits… easy! Outfits… easy! They were so easy to please…. like I said, peaceful! Even with outfits, they were happy with one. So simple and elegant! My kind of style! Ah... I just LOVE and respect that so much. Getting to know them made me realize that I need to be more like that. They had so much joy because there’s contentment in their hearts. Being content I believe is what brings true happiness, and that was so apparent with Elissa + Mats. They seemed healthy in every way. And, I’m sure that their cutest dog in the world definitely helps with that too! Did you know that their dog, Gigi, follows on Instagram? Ha! Yes, and how cute is that?! When I saw that Gigi started liking our posts, I about died! Elissa + Mats, you guys were fabulous! Not only did you guys look fabulous, but you were photogenic, fun and simply comfortable to hang out with. I’m so happy that you chose the Atlanta Botanical Gardens as your location too - it fit you guys perfectly! We appreciate you both and your mom for being incredible to work with. We are so happy that you love the photos! See you in fall of 2020!
With much love,
Craig + Unchong
