Andrew and Katie: A Timeless Southern Wedding at The Grand Magnolia House

Katie and Andrew are one of the sweetest couples we have had the pleasure to work with! I first met them both at their engagement session in Athens and we instantly clicked (on a lot of levels, but most notably our love for Harry Potter). They have been such a joy to work with and I can’t wait for you to checkout these highlights of their day.

We absolutely LOVE shooting here.Timeless Classically Southern Wedding in Georgia_0074After some more reception fun, we took a few more “night-time” shots. I was initially a little nervous about lighting when Katie remembered that she wanted some photos on the swing at the venue, but I love how they turned out! She had such a great idea, and the lit-up pavilion is truly the stuff of fairy tales! Timeless Classically Southern Wedding in Georgia_0076-1Timeless Classically Southern Wedding in Georgia_0076Timeless Classically Southern Wedding in Georgia_0077Timeless Classically Southern Wedding in Georgia_0078After one gorgeous sparkler exit, the couple was on their way to the honeymoon in Mexico.  Congratulations Katie and Andrew!
