You know I like to celebrate other vendors on this blog when they excel and today is no different.

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!

Gracie and Luke’s wedding at the Hadden Estate had two of my favorite things: cowboy hats and a dog! There is something deeply nostalgic for the country life I grew up when I see cowboy hats and I love how they were incorporated into their wedding attire. Of course, any dog will always attempt to steal the show!

Caroline and Riley’s wedding at The Georgia Club was a wedding detailed to perfection! There’s something I love about a color scheme reminiscent of a coastal estate that Caroline’s choices absolutely nailed down. Between elegant white flowers and bountiful touches of blue, this was a timeless event!

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.

Marie and Aaron’s wedding at the Hadden Estate at Damn Good Dawg Farms was the perfect way to kick off my summer wedding season!

Not only did it make their day easier and more memorable, it helped me capture the moments along the way.

Brooke and Zach’s wedding at the Wildflower 301 is today’s blog offering! This couple was exceptionally kind and I loved every minute I spent around them this day. I know every photographer says their couples are beautiful inside and out, but we truly mean it! These two were so intentional in their decisions and design and it really coalesced into a stunning, elegant day.

Kayla and Brantley’s Grant Hill Farms Wedding was a perfectly charming fall wedding. I’d previously shot a wedding there in 2021, and I adore the blue barn and the lush green landscape around it. Being a fall wedding, Kayla’s focus on a rust color palette really drew everything together. I loved it!

Maggie and Ryan’s Sandy Creek Barn Wedding on Lake Oconee was a sun-kissed stunner!

With a stylish eye that perfectly blended classic and modern, I loved how Maggie’s vendors put her vision together.

Sidney and Taylor’s wedding at The Factory at Walton Mill brought together modern chic with an industrial setting. Simply put, it was a jaw dropper! They also had one of the best photobooks I’ve ever seen.

Lauren and Harrison’s wedding let me return to one of my favorite venues in all of Georgia: The Farm at High Shoals just outside of Athens in Bishop, Georgia. Working alongside one of my favorite wedding planners, Lindsey Wise, the couple shared their vision for every little detail and Lindsey definitely delivered! As I moved around the stunning venue taking photographs, I was blown away by the level of intricacy and care in every aspect of the design. Every aspect of the day, from getting ready and portraits at the Villa to the ceremony in the vineyard and on into the cocktail hour and reception at the stables, made this wedding into the definition of a showstopper.

Yeni and Zach’s Hadden Estate wedding was so much fun! Hadden Estate is a new venue in Watkinsville and it has so much to offer. The venue is situated on a blueberry farm and the entire property is gorgeous. There are a few different options as to where to have the ceremony.

Leah and Jack’s private residence wedding was incredibly special. Their engagement session was in Madison, so I loved how they kept the outdoor theme throughout their wedding festivities. It was great getting to know Leah and Jack’s personalities through their engagement session, to then being able to understand how they envisioned their wedding day.

A frequent question I get from brides is: “Do I really need a second photographer for my wedding”? I wanted to have a dedicated blog post to share the importance, and hopefully convince you if I haven’t already.

The Swan House is a venue that most wedding industry professionals have high on their bucket list, and I was lucky enough shoot an editorial here recently. Everything about The Swan House is swoon worthy. The architecture and the landscaping are a photographers dream!
