Kristin + Jay are truly amazing people. From the first time I met them, I knew their wedding day was going to be very special. Honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better couple to end 2018 with! Their wedding day was so perfect and after the end of a long wedding season, it was a breath of fresh air to celebrate with such amazing people and their families. From the moment I drove through the gates at Lowndes Grove on their wedding day, I knew it was going to be incredible. Seeing the wooden pews set up for their ceremony on the front lawn was a fun surprise… I LOVE them and think they really add so much to the feel of the ceremony. If they had put that much thought into their ceremony seating, I knew the rest of their details and design was going to be phenomenal… and it was!!
I don’t think I picked my jaw up off of the floor at all on their wedding day. Beautiful florals, fun linens, amazing stationery, stunning dresses all around, exceptionally kind family + friends, and a gorgeous reception design were just a few of the highlights of their day. Boy oh boy, it was one for the books!!
Kristin + Jay started their day off with a sweet First Look, followed by bride + groom portraits around the property. Their pup Jack Henry joined for some photos and he was such a sweetheart. He was literally the size of a Shetland Pony and I just wanted to take him home to snuggle with after the wedding… SO CUTE!!! Their bridal party looked stunning in classic black tuxes for the guys and mulberry-colored gowns for the girls. The perfect color combination for a late December soiree. Guests arrived on a vintage bus to watch Kristin + Jay say “I do!” in a gorgeous sunset ceremony. It was so perfect!!
Kristin + Jay joined their guests for cocktail hour, then danced the night away with everyone on the dance floor. At the end of the night, Kristin + Jay exited through a tunnel of sparklers and hopped into their getaway car… the perfect ending to an incredible day… and my 2018 wedding year! Here are some of my favorites from Kristin + Jay’s amazing winter wedding at Lowndes Grove...

I love it when my couples opt to do an engagement session with me before their wedding day. While it’s by no means necessary, I always really love getting to know my couples before the wedding day – and I also love being able to take some epic photos of them during this special time […]
From the very first time I spoke with Caroline, I knew that her wedding day was going to be so special. With just their immediate families in attendance, Caroline + Kevin’s day was centered around family – and they wanted to begin their life together surrounded by the people who love them the most in […]
Lauren + Matt are the embodiment of pure, unfiltered JOY. The way these two look at each other. The way they smile from ear to ear when they are next to each other. Absolute, contagious, electric joy. I truly feel so lucky to have been in the presence of their love. It’s a love that […]
In May, I headed to Atlanta for Lynsey + Tyler’s romantic wedding at Summerour Studio. I knew their wedding weekend was going to be special and it absolutely was!

I first met Tori back in 2016 when I photographed her older sister Kiersten’s wedding.

Legacy clients are so special and the Stolen family means so much to me. They […]
When I first spoke to Elizabeth last June, I knew that her wedding day was going to be something special.

Elizabeth wanted […]
