Ashleigh & Dewey’s engagement session and upcoming wedding hit all the venues that I consider the “Classic Athens.”

Jessie & Tanner’s engagement session at the gorgeous State Botanical Gardens of Georgia in Athens was filled with the most delicious lighting.

Morgan & Bo’s engagement session at Lake Herrick and the State Botanical Garden of Georgia is a time capsule of their time together.

If there’s one thing I know after growing up in the area, it’s that Athens is a fantastic place for engagement sessions. Here are my faves!

Ansley and Carson’s engagement session at the lovely State Botanical Gardens of Georgia was just the sweetest day. Rachel captured their joyous smiles and lovely personalities excellently.

Molly and Matthew’s beautiful wedding at the UGA Chapel is half of this blog, but I am exceptionally excited to share their reception at Herty Field as well!

Ryan and Josh’s gorgeous and glowing rehearsal dinner at the Georgian Hall reminded me of all the ways I love interacting with my clients.

Alexa and Kevin wedding at the UGA Chapel and reception at the Georgian Hall was the perfect celebration of a kind and immaculate couple. You could not have asked for a more joyous occasion.

When you were born and raised around Athens and you’re invited to capture a surprise proposal inside Sanford Stadium, you obviously say yes! We are so excited that we got to capture this moment of Sammie and Braden’s story.

Makenzie and Will’s beautiful wedding day and reception at Chapel Athens includes all of the Athens classics we’ve grown to love!

I loved exploring different parts of the University of Georgie with Ryan and Josh for their engagement session. The first time Ryan called me, I knew that she and I would have the best connection! When you can feel the chemistry from the first phone call, you know the pictures will be special.

Kelly and Jesse’s wedding at the UGA Chapel may have me convinced that they’re the University of Georgia’s number one fans! Everything about this wedding was Classic Athens.

I absolutely loved Kylie and Vivek’s intimate botanical garden wedding! I’ve mentioned it before, but the State Gardens on UGA’s campus are a dream location for me. I want to take as many portrait sessions as possible in the rose garden!

Kaitlyn and Dillon’s wedding at The Chapel Athens continued the trend of their engagement session: celebrating the couple and the city of Athens around them. As it is practically my home town as well, I’m obsessed with some of the city portrait shots we captured between the wedding and the reception.

Today, we are taking a quick glance at Susan and Greg’s intimate State Botanical Gardens of Georgia wedding! I love this venue more every time I visit. The flowers were showing off in the bright sunlight of spring!

Today we are following Meredith and Hunter’s engagement session from Lake Herrick to downtown Athens! If you’ve followed my photography for awhile, you know that I adore three things: lakes, dogs, and gorgeous lighting. In this series of photos, you get a healthy dose of all three!

Today I’m sharing a very special bridal session with Carlie at Birdie & Co Studio! The pure excitement of seeing everything come together in a top secret pre-wedding “test run” is a pure prelude of joy. The peace and lack of pressure on the day really comes through in these photos. It’s a sacred glimpse into those last few moments before marriage.

For my first blog of the new year, we are diving into Ashley and Andrew’s wedding at 255 Milledge! I’ve spent so much time with them over the last year that this one feels exceptionally special. If you haven’t checked out their engagement session or their bury the bourbon session yet, definitely do so before checking out this one! I shared their rehearsal dinner last week as well. I’m simply in love with them.

Today I’m sharing some of my favorites from Victoria and Joel’s engagement session at UGA’s North Campus. You all already know that this location never gets old for me! There are so many amazing spots to grab unique and beautiful captures and I’m always discovering more!

Kaitlyn and Dillon’s engagement session at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia is today’s featured blog. This is one of my favorite free session locations in Athens! A well-manicured garden or park always provided elegant, natural backdrops that enhance any session together.

Emma and Brendan’s Athens engagement session was incredibly special. For starters, these two are middle school sweethearts! I photography high school and college sweethearts all the time, but middle school is so sweet and unique.

Earlier this year, Alexis Lunsford and I put together an editorial-like, stylized luxury Garden Party Wedding at the The Gardens outside Athens, GA!

Millie and Tyler… find a sweeter, more head-over-heels-in-love couple… I’ll wait. These two are precious and their wedding day was on a warm, sunny day in February.

I’m a sucker for a good proposal story. In fact, I always ask my couples at their consultation how they got engaged. So, imagine how much I love photographing proposals? Um… the limit does not exist!
