Year in Review 2012 ~ Enagement Sessions

What a year 2012 was for Peach Blossom Photography! One of my favorite parts of the holidays is taking the time to reflect on all the amazing weddings, engagements, and family shoots I had throughout the year. Below is a compilation of one of my favorite shots from each engagement session I did this year. Nothing compares to dreamy lighting and amazing clients....

Jeanette & Colin's Winter Wedding ~ Roswell Photographer

Jeanette & Colin were married at the beautiful St Peter Chanel Catholic Church in Roswell on December 1st. Their reception was held at Roswell Mill's Ivy Hall. Their Christmas inspired wedding was decorated with red and white roses. I loved how they gifted their guests silver ornaments! I just love winter weddings!

P&K's Jekyll Island Engagement Session ~ Atlanta Wedding Photographer

Last weekend, Brent and I had the joy of witnessing two of our friends tie the Knot at the Jekyll Island Club. So while we were down on Jekyll,  my amazing clients Paige and Kevin drove down from Atlanta for a destination engagement session! Saturday was a little chilly, super windy, and high tide so we captured a few around the Clam Creek Picnic area and the Horton House ruins. We met back up Sunday to capture a few fun photos down by Driftwood Beach. I just love how these turned out!!! Can't wait for their March 2013 wedding!

 

Here is a little preview of my favorite photos I snapped as a guest at Kasia and Alex's wedding too!!!

Emma & Reid's Charleston E-Session ~ Charleston Wedding Photography

The last weekend of October, Brent and I got to spend the weekend photographing a wedding and engagement session in beautiful Charleston. Emma and Reid chose The Battery and College of Charleston as their e-session backdrops. Having met at the College of Charleston, it was only location that would work for them! The weather was perfect and we had such a fun morning. We are looking forward to their June wedding in Atlanta!
