Kaylee + Will | Athens, Ga Wedding

Last weekend, I met Kaylee at the Hilton Garden Inn in downtown Athens, Ga. When I walked into their hotel room her and her ladies were having a fabulous time chatting and laughing. She has the best group of friends a girl could ask for! They had nothing but her best interest at hand ALL day long! Once the ladies were dressed and ready they headed to the hotel’s bar for some more fun and giggles. We then hopped on the trolley and made our way to the wedding site. Kaylee’s fiancé’s family, has a beautiful piece of heaven where they built a barn, created a ceremony and reception site for their big day! It was spectacular! Will’s family really knocked it out of the park! They created the perfect ceremony site, lining the isle with pea gravel that lead to a large oak tree that was back lit by the sun and just on the other side of the tree is a cute little wooden marker with Kaylee + Will’s names and wedding date to memorialize the special day. They built a beautiful bar under the overhang of the barn for guests to enjoy and the reception site was tented with a checker board dance floor, chandeliers and a large stage for the live band that kept the party going all night long.

After their ceremony and family formal photographs, the wind started picking up. Kaylee’s bridesmaid’s were encouraging her to make her way back to the barn. They were so concerned that the rain would ruin her dress. Her and Will rushed away as the rain started to drift in and my heart started to break. There were so many locations I had in mind for their sunset photographs as husband and wife and I knew with the rain we just weren’t going to make it to any of them. However, the rain ended up not “ruining” anything. In fact, it made their photographs more gorgeous and as romantic as ever!

With the quick change up in their wedding day schedule, Kaylee + Will made their way into the tent for their introduction and first dance as husband and wife. This is about the time I started asking anyone and everyone if they just happen to have an umbrella - not a soul had one. The plan was, once they finished up their dances, we would go back to the barn for photographs. So, my husband, who came along to help this eight and a half month pregnant photog chick out, grabs the lid of a trash can and holds it over my head to keep my camera and I dry from the rain so I can photograph Kaylee + Will under the overhang of the barn. I am SO thankful for my man! He got soaked in order for me to do the best job I could for this sweet couple.

Kaylee + Will thank you so much for having us as your wedding photographers! You two (AND your families) have been such a pleasure to photograph! Congratulations!!

Jessica + Chris | Starrsville Plantation, Covington, Ga Wedding

starrsville_plantation_covington_ga_wedding_photographers-144.jpg

About a year ago, during our first wedding consult, I met Jessica and her now sister-in-law, Toya. The two engaged ladies were both in full swing of planning their weddings. I photographed Jessica's brother, Morgan and Toya's wedding just last year. It has been so fun working with their family and I was thrilled to get to work with them again just last weekend during Jessica and Chris' gorgeous Starrsville Plantation wedding! Their family is so close! I love this about them. I love that when Jessica and her dad had their "first look" his smile was from ear to ear the entire time! I love that when Jessica walked down the isle, Chris about lost it! I love that Jessica's parents always ask me to take a photograph of them - they are the sweetest couple and I am sure the most incredible role models for their children to look up to.

Jessica's father's speech was too sweet and it brought me to tears too! He talked about how when Jessica was a little girl she would play kitchen under the dogwood tree in their back yard and her mom would watch her from their kitchen window. One day Jessica's mom, Mrs. Cindy, was out by that dogwood gardening and she found one of Jessica's little kitchen pots. I am sure this flooded her mind with memories of when her daughter was just a little one. Her dad also mentioned that when Jessica was little she gave him some cute little coupons for things like a back scratching, foot rub and one for "no more complaining". Ha! Apparently he had redeemed them all but the "no more complaining" coupon. During his speech, her dad pulls out the "no more complaining" coupon and hands it over to Chris! So cute!

Congratulations Jessica + Chris!!!
