Imagine getting married to the love of your life on the most perfect fall day in the North GA Mountains among your closest family and friends - yes please!! Ellijay has become such a special place to me over the last few years, and this Autumnal Wedding was the perfect way to capture Ellijay’s beauty. The changing leaves, the vast fields and forests, the fall breeze and leftover summer sun - it couldn’t have been more dreamy.
Karina & Andy got married on Oct 16th, 2022 and a year later decided to get dressed up again to celebrate their 1 year anniversary with a dreamy canoe sunrise anniversary session! We met just before sunrise at this beautiful lake and heard the birds chirping, along side some drilling and construction noises going on right next to us (LOL - the things you don’t see in the pictures!). It ended up being such a magical morning and I’m so happy I got to capture these moments for them.
Morgan is a dear, dear friend of mine and getting to meet (and photograph) her two sweet girls was so much fun. Poppy and Sullivan warmed up to the camera after about 10 mins and were such stars! We shot at this perfect field in Marietta during golden hour - my favorite time of day to shoot. Morgan picked out the perfect outfits for Poppy & Sullivan, and I adore how they looked at this location! I have been shooting a lot more in the Marietta/Kennesaw area recently and I love it!
When your original location has an entire WEDDING going on - you have to head to the backup location, which in our case was this super gorgeous hotel. We snuck inside (not really - they held the door open for us LOL), and headed upstairs to try and find some cool hallways/photo spots.
Kevin + Tia are such a sweet, special couple - this day was actually the anniversary of when they met and I just loved spending this morning celebrating with them! We watched the sunrise come up over the mountains, they read some meaningful vows and said ‘I do,’ we went to the Ellijay Coffeehouse for coffee (my favorite place in Ellijay - their breakfast is so good too!!), and then ended the morning at one of my favorite North GA lakes with a charcuterie board and a picnic blanket. It was so perfect!
When Baxter reached out to me to document their proposal I was BEYOND excited. He came to me before planning anything else - which is honestly my favorite thing! I was able to help him choose the location (this spot is a favorite of mine), the time of day (will forever advocate for sunrise), and how to have me capture it without Morgan seeing! We FaceTimed, planned, sent maps with arrows on where to go, and just got so excited for this morning.
Meredith is my freshman year (random!) roommate and I am so happy that 5 years down the road I got to take photos of her and her sweet guy, Christian! I found this road a couple weeks ago and was so so excited to shoot on it for the first time. We were there for almost 2 hours and not a SINGLE car drove by - I love quiet places like this in the mountains! Just us, the cows, the crickets, and the moon!
Ben and Vicky are wedding photographers themselves (check out their amazing work here: https://benxvicky.com) so I was extremely honored when they reached out to me for photos! We met in the beautiful Ellijay mountains right before sunset and explored the fields + dirt roads around us with their sweet baby girl and precious dog.
Alejandra + Cole are two of my dearest friends and this session was so so special. Alejandra and I met back in middle school and she used to model for my 12 year old self when I was just getting started in photography - this was such a full circle moment taking her photos again over 10 years later. Cole has been friends with my partner, Andrew, since they were 5 and I’ve known him since high school. He is such a great friend to the both of us!
Amy + Blake’s Wedding Day was so so special. When Amy first reached out, she mentioned that her dream wedding was in the Blue Ridge Mountains (outdoors), but that she was worried about how cold it would be, and didn’t want to make her family freeze at their wedding! So we came up with the idea to do a first look in the mountains, with just Amy + Blake, and then we headed back to their cabin and had their ceremony with the fireplaces on inside, and such a cozy atmosphere.
When I tell you Tricia + Travis are in love - I mean it. You can feel the love and joy just by being in their presence, and it really shines through in these photos.
Hannah + Reed’s intimate Dolomites elopement was an unforgettable morning exploring the Italian Dolomites in Auronzo di Cadore, Italy. We woke up before sunrise and drove to the location we had decided on the day before - but when we got there, the fog was so thick that you couldn’t see a thing. So instead, we headed to a back up location and it was absolutely perfect. We hiked to a little area where you could see the mountains at their peak beauty, and began an intimate and private ceremony - with a view!
Alan and I grew up in the same town, went to all the same schools, and didn’t end up becoming friends until our senior year of high school after I took his senior photos! Now, over 4 years later, I was lucky enough to photograph him and his sweet boyfriend, Connor in the North Georgia Mountains on the first night of July.
Isabel + Jon’s wedding is what DREAMS ARE MADE OF!! The dress, the color palette, the details, the friends, the family, the venue, just everything was so so magical and I feel so lucky to have captured their special day.
Keelin + Bunny traveled from Atlanta to Athens for this magical session and I am so so happy they did. Capturing their love was so special to me - you know when you can just tell two people are like soooo in love? Yeah that was these two lovebirds for me. I felt like I was third wheeling in the best way and we had such a beautiful night together.
Hannah + Reed are one of my favorite couples ever - we have shot together almost 10 times and I am so beyond excited to shoot their elopement in Italy this summer!!
Kristen was my roommate freshman year of college and I was SO excited to take photos of her + Evan + their sweet dog Ruby. We met at one of my favorite places for sunset in Blue Ridge and spent the evening exploring the beach and watching Ruby swim while the sun went down!
Nipuna reached out to me about planning a surprise proposal and I was SO excited to help out!! We decided that a couples session would be the perfect way to capture the moment without me having to hide or disguise myself (both of which I have done before for a proposal).
This intimate forest elopement felt like a real life fairytale. Drew and Casey are the sweetest couple, and their love is so so beautiful. We got the perfect weather, and Casey wore the cutest thrifted cowgirl boots with her vintage wedding dress.
The best morning with one of my favorite little families here in Athens! We explored downtown Athens and had so much fun shooting together, plus their outfits were just everything. So obsessed!!
Olivia + Christian reached out to me with the dream of “running off in the mountains and eloping somewhere beautiful” and I knew just the perfect spots here in Ellijay, GA!
Gia + David’s engagement session was just so magical. We explored one of my favorite locations here in Ellijay together with their dog, Odin! The weather was just perfect and Odin LOVED exploring + swimming. Gia + David’s outfits were perfect, and they were so much fun to work with. It felt like we had been friends forever!
This day with Avery + Anna felt like out of a movie! We explored this cute trail in Ellijay, swam in the waterfalls, and jumped off the dock into the lake! Summer shoots like this are some of my all time favorites - enjoying the outdoors and going on mini adventures are the perfect date idea for a session.
Mia and Jordan recently celebrated their 5 year anniversary and wanted some photos to document this special time!! Mia sent me her Pinterest board full of ideas and I immediately started planning!!
Matt and Jacob are just the sweetest couple ever. Matt reached out for some engagement photos and I was so honored and excited!! We spent this beautifully cloudy day exploring one of my favorite fields and obsessing over Pheobe, their sweet dog!!
An intimate wedding at a cozy venue tucked away in the North Georgia Mountains. Such a special day with Bree + Daniel.
Kayla + Taylor wanted a dreamy mountain top elopement, so we did just that!! They got ready at the cutest treehouse airbnb (not only am I a professional photographer, but also an incredible airbnb finder!!) and spent their morning loving on each other in the mountains.
Ali & Dante travelled up to Ellijay, GA from Florida with their sweet dogs, Gunner & Chloe, wanting a ‘winter elopement in the mountains’ and they definitely got it!! This was one of the coldest days of my entire life - 27 degrees with an 11 degree wind chill. I had to take frequent breaks to keep my fingers from going numb, but it was 100000% worth it. They got married on top of my favorite mountain overlook here in Ellijay, GA and we watched as the early morning clouds hovered over the mountains…
