Darlene & Jon: Little Five Points & Piedmont Park

They met in high school and laughed as they recalled their first date ages ago. Through separate colleges and jobs in different cities, they spent a lot of time dating long distance. Darlene and Jon are happy to be once again living in the same city and now planning their wedding.

They got engaged by a tree in Piedmont Park after a picnic near Park Tavern. Darlene thought it was her idea to go to the park, but little did she know, Jon was planning to propose that afternoon. When it came time to choose a place for their engagement photos, it was only appropriate that we would start at Piedmont Park, near the tree by Park Tavern.

It was tough to narrow down the photos for this post- these two look great in every photo!

We couldn’t have picked a better time of year for their photos. The trees were in bloom and made the perfect backdrop for their photos.

After wandering throughout Piedmont Park, we walked around Midtown.

Hoping the rain would hold out a little longer, we headed to Little Five Points to get some cool shots at some of their favorite spots, and in Little Five Points there are definitely a lot of fun places to shoot!

These two are awesome- they didn’t let a little rain stop them!

Love this one!

We couldn’t leave Little Five Points without a few shots in front of the Vortex!

Darlene and Jon, thanks for braving the rain with me! Onto the slideshow…
