Savina and Mason had a magical engagement session at sunrise in Piedmont Park. Despite the chilly morning, they embraced the cold, and as a small perk, had the park mostly to themselves.

Their upcoming November wedding, led by Invision Events, promises to be a celebration of love and joy. We can’t wait to witness their special day and see their love story continue to unfold. Cheers to Savina and Mason, and the beautiful moments they shared at Piedmont Park!

The Swan House is an icon in Atlanta.

Nestled within the lush greenery of the Atlanta History Center, the Swan House sets the perfect backdrop for a fairytale wedding. I was lucky enough to photograph my most recent wedding at the historic mansion as it played host to the Lex and Alex and all their guests.

As the doors of the Swan House swung open, all eyes turned toward Lex as she prepared to walk down the sweeping staircase escorted by her brother. Her gown became my favorite detail of the day, effortlessly blending a traditional look with some modern flair. The gown, along with its matching veil, displayed a blush undertone that perfectly matched Lex’s complexion. Delicate blue lace adorned the gown and veil, adding her “something blue” with effortless charm. The meticulous attention to detail created a truly unique and captivating ensemble. To complete her look, she wore a gorgeous headpiece that added an ethereal touch.

Following the ceremony, guests continued the celebration in the gardens for cocktail hour with a grand reception in the Atlanta History Center ballroom. Brianne McMullan Events welcomed created a stunning design that welcomed guests with soft candlelight and blossoming trees, bringing the outside in. Friends and family danced the night away, creating memories that would be cherished for a lifetime.

Thank you to the incredible vendor team who made this day possible!

Tented Wedding at The Thompson Savannah

Kathleen and Lucas’ tented wedding on the lawn of the The Thompson Savannah was charming and breathtaking, ending in a vibrant sunset over the Savannah River. With relatives coming in from all over the world, the pair chose Savannah for its historic backdrop and natural beauty to welcome them in. From the Spanish moss decorating Savannah’s iconic oaks to the charming, Southern architecture, guests were surrounded by beauty from the moment they arrived.

Schuyler and Joseph chose Blanc Studio West in Atlanta for their maternity portraits. Rather than choose the typical outdoor aesthetic, Schuyler opted for a clean, modern vibe, and this studio provided the perfect backdrop. I loved seeing Schuyler celebrate her new look and embrace the bump for her session. Watching my clients become parents is a joy, and I wish these two the best as they welcome their new baby!

 

Madison and Jason welcomed their first baby girl just after Christmas. We were lucky to photograph their wedding day at Chateau Elan in June of 2021, and it always brings me joy to watch my couples begin their families! Seeing Madison and Jason with Emma was no different. They are natural parents, and their love for Emma is evident in each portrait. Congratulations, you two!

 

What better way to begin 2023 than by highlighting one of my favorite engagement sessions of last year. Rebecca and Scott are getting married this Spring. While we searched for the perfect location for their engagement portraits, we knew we wanted something private and bespoke. Not surprisingly, we settled on Meadowlark 1939.

Meadowlark is the perfect location for portraits. Its gardens are beautifully kept yet still slightly overgrown, making the entire property feel like a Jane Austen novel. Rebecca and Scott looked lovely among the changing Fall leaves, and we had fun playing and capturing these portraits. I’m so thrilled to be capturing their wedding this May!
