Hills & Dales Estate Engagement | Sami & Drew

I am excited to share these Hills and Dales’ engagement photos of Sami and Drew taking last Spring. They are getting married at the Swan House in Atlanta next March, and when we set out to find a great location for their engagement portraits, we settled on Hills and Dales. The estate shares a complimentary aesthetic of old-world architecture and sprawling gardens. Like the Swan House, it’s a perfect location for any portrait session.

We began at the main estate, walking through the boxwoods and greenhouse. However, we noticed bright azaleas lining the path to the main house on arrival. Sami loved the idea of sneaking down hill for portraits in front of these lively bushes, and as a lover of colorful flowers, I was happy to accommodate (elated, actually). Their session felt like a fairytale from beginning to end. I look forward to their upcoming wedding day and their happily ever after!

I'm LAURA

welcome to my journal

This is where I love sharing recent weddings and sessions, my travels, and life with my husband, and our three pets. When I'm not capturing a wedding day, I'm often enjoying the outdoors with Garrett, playing with our pups, or finding a new place to call home for the weekend. My passion is telling love stories, and I hope I get to fall in love with telling yours.

let's meet!

THE JOURNAL

North Beach was the perfect location for Nicole and Rob's Tybee Island session. While they played with their pup, Lucy, I simply followed. We ran together on the sand, not worrying for once about dirty hems or windy hair.

Christie and Brian strayed from traditional southern clichés and played into the modern lines and motifs of Fernbank Museum of Natural History in Atlanta throughout their wedding design – from their paper to their florals.

I was honored to be able to capture my second photographer's sweet family for her birthday and Mother’s Day present. We played on the grounds of Meadowlark 1939 and came away with the most lovely photos of her and her family.
