Lindsay contacted me to ask if I take maternity pictures since she would be staying at The Grand for her babymoon. While I mostly photograph weddings and engagements, I love documenting couples at every stage of their relationship. What a beautiful momma-to-be! 💙 Here’s a few of my favorite portraits from her session:

The emotions that sneak up on you on wedding day! I always love documenting the reading of the letters from your soon to be husband or wife before the ceremony. What brings the groom to tears may make the bride giggle. Both equally beautiful images.

✨On the blog: St. Mary's Catholic Church Wedding | Katie & Andrew

"In Mobile, Alabama on a sunny May afternoon, Katie and Andrew sealed their love in a ceremony that will forever be etched in their hearts with a St. Mary’s Catholic Church Wedding. The gorgeous church, familiar to many Mobile Catholics, provided the perfect setting for their timeless union. From getting ready, first looks and grand reveals, to walking the aisle and sharing a kiss as they drove off to their happily ever after, this wedding is one for the books!"

Bragg Mitchell Mansion Bridal Portrait Session | Savannah
⁠
"Bridal portraits are an add-on service I offer, and they’re a unique experience in the world of wedding photography. We schedule these sessions once the bride’s dress is back from alterations, giving her the chance to slip into her gown before the big day. It’s more than just a photoshoot; it’s a trial run for hair, makeup, and bouquet – a sneak peek into the bride’s transformation into a vision of bridal beauty.

The Bragg Mitchell Mansion serves as the perfect backdrop for these portraits. Its grandeur, history, and stunning architecture make it an ideal location for capturing the essence of a bride’s anticipation and excitement. The mansion’s timeless charm adds a touch of vintage elegance to the photographs, making them all the more enchanting..."

Some of my favorite things to photograph are the little details that my brides carefully choose for their wedding days. The lace on her dress, the the heirloom jewelry, the soft curl to her hair, the architectural details of her venue... Each of these is very important to my clients and deserves to be documented!

'24 - '25 Brides - If you want a photographer who cares about all the details the way you do, I'm your girl!

I always love to get to know my couples and hear their story - How they met, The proposal, How they spend time together, etc.

But, one of my FAVORITE stories to hear is how they know everyone in their wedding party. This question always leads to some sweet moments or funny stories.

BRIDES - I'd love to know - How did you choose the special ladies who will be standing by your side?

POSITIVITY

My word for of the year for 2024.

I usually don't like to make New Year's resolutions. I'm not going to not have desserts for a year when Whit's has a new flavor every week! I think they're kinda silly...BUT this new year feels different.

After much reflection I feel that a word that embodies your hopes and intentions for the new year is much more fitting.

2023 was HARD.

I can.. and have been.. giving entirely too much of my energy on how bad last year was. But you know what? It was really good too! As cliche as it sounds, every cloud has a silver lining - Even the worst situations have some positive aspect. In 2024 I choose to embrace positivity.

The practice of being or tendency to be positive or optimistic in attitude.

I invite you to practice with me.
