Cynthia & Dustin's Vintage Wedding ~ Wauchula Photographer

Cynthia and Dustin had a lovely vintage wedding at Homeland Heritage Park in one of the oldest standing churches in Florida. The beautiful little church was built in 1887 and still has the original stain glass windows. Their vintage inspired reception was held at Torrey Oaks Community Room. She used a lot of her own antiques and creativity to give the reception hall it’s vintage makeover. Cynthia and Dustin’s wedding is very special to me.  Their wedding was the first wedding I shot where I was surrounded by friends that I have known since I was a little girl. Her sister Aimee and I have been close friends since Junior High. I actually took pictures at Aimee’s wedding two years ago when my passion for photography was just getting fired up! Cynthia & Dustin’s wedding was also my first hometown wedding back in Wauchula, Florida were I was raised. It’s so nice to have a great reason to go home and visit!

North Georgia Fair: Fun Sessions ~ Marietta Photographer

For a few years I've been drooling over the opportunity to take pictures at a fair or carnival but timing just never worked out. This year, I put the North Georgia Fair Schedule in my calendar back in March so I could plan accordingly!  Getting to ride the rides, play games, and eat junk food - super fun! I loved the colors and ride lights. To make it even better - I got to catch the last few song of Sara Evan's performance. Although harder than I anticipated (tons of people and tricky light) capturing fun memories at the fair was awesome - I would totally do it again! Who's next?

First up, The Jednaszewskis. I just love taking pictures of Natalie - that girl has a ton of personality! She was a little scared of the rides at first but warmed up to them real fast!

Caity & Ryan were my next subjects! They are the cutest couple ever.

The line for the ferris wheel was a mile long so we decided to skip and just finish the night with some photos in front of it! 

 

And finally - Sara Evans! Love her! 

Sam & Jared's Carl House Wedding ~ Auburn Wedding Photography

Two weekends ago, we photographed Samantha and Jared's beautiful wedding at the Carl House in Auburn, Georgia. It was a beautiful Georgia Day - the kind that lets you know fall is on its way.  Samantha chose a soft palette of pink and mint green for her colors.  Samantha was the most beautiful bride and Jared was looking mighty fine himself!

 

 

Their great friends Maggie & Clay created the beautiful wedding arch and adorned it with flowers. Having friends and family contribute key elements to the wedding day is a great way to really create a special setting for your wedding!
