Cool Beans Coffee Roasting

I photographed Cool Beans coffee shop on Marietta Square for a Three of a Kind photo feature for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, December 1, 2011. Cool Beans is owned by Kevin and Jennifer Langill, a husband and wife team that has owned the shop for well over a decade. The baristas at Cool Beans roast coffee beans multiple times a week to ensure a fresh product right in the store. These are some of my favorite images.
