Jillian and Chris were married at The Venetian Pier at Lake Lanier Islands. They are both in the Air Force and live in New Mexico, so when I showed up at the wedding, it was the first time we had met! Let me tell you what a delight they both were! Jillian and Chris both have fantastic families and their love just flowed the entire day. My favorite part of the day was when Grandpa sang a song to them that he had sang to his wife on their 50th Anniversary...seriously, one of the SWEETEST moments ever! (see pictures below!) Jillian and Chris, thanks for having me to capture your day...I felt like part of the family by the end of the evening! Enjoy!

Kristina and Hans were married at their home church of Alpharetta First Presbyterian and then celebrated their union with an elegant reception at The Manor Golf and Country Club in Milton, GA. I know I say this all of the time, but I must just have the sweetest couples as clients because Kristina and Hans are were just delightful! I was greeted with a squeal when I arrived in Kristina's getting ready room and the entire wedding day was full of laughs, sweet moments, and TONS of fun! You'll see from the pictures that this was an elegant affair with gorgeous tablescapes adorned with the prettiest flowers. However, at this wedding, elegant did not mean stuffy! Kristina, Hans and all of their guests knew how to party! The dance floor was packed all night, the photobooth brought lots of laughter, and the candy bar topped off the night with a
Chukkar Farms & Polo Club | Alpharetta, GA | Ashley & Chris | BerryTree Photography | Wedding Photography
July 15, 2011When I think of Ashley and Chris the first word that pops into my head is - PRECIOUS! These too are so in love and even more importantly that love is deeply routed first in God. I know without a doubt that their wedding day was surely precious in the eyes of the Lord. Ashley and Chris were married at their home church, Greater Heights Baptist Church, in Cumming, GA and had an incredibly sweet reception at Chukkar Farms and Polo Club in Alpharetta. Let me tell you what a fun place that was to shoot! First...there is a gorgeous green barn with yellow accents...fun! Then, there are all of the animals - pigs, chickens, horses, and even a farm cat. My favorite pictures from the day were when a HUGE clydesdale horse came RUNNING towards us - seriously...so fun! (Make sure you make it to the bottom of the
Las Vegas, NV | Destination Wedding Photographer | BerryTree Photography – Sara and Josh are married!
June 21, 2011One of the incredible perks of my job is getting to travel. Last year I got to shoot weddings in Maine and San Diego. Coming up on the books are weddings in Pennsylvania and Oregon. And Josh and Sara asked me to be a part of their special day in Las Vegas!! Seriously...how lucky am I? Josh and Sara live here in ATL but most of Sara's family is from New Zealand. So...a destination wedding in Las Vegas seemed like the perfect place to meet up and celebrate! I was excited beyond measure to get to shoot this wedding...the glitz, the glam, the lights...what photographer wouldn't be? But what surprised me most was just how ROMANTIC Las Vegas can be! Of course...Sara and Josh being completely in love with each other didn't hurt...made my job easy! The wedding took place at a catholic church on the strip (who knew??) and
These two are SO fun...just adorable with each other! To start it off...their names are Sam and Cam...I mean really...can you get any cuter than that? They were married at the Hazlehurst House in McDonough, GA which is now one of my favorite venues! It is a beautiful historic home and the staff there makes sure every detail is perfect. Seriously...check out the pictures of Sam's dress in the getting ready room...could that room be any more perfect?! I could ramble on forever about this wedding but I'll just let the pictures tell the tale! Sam and Cam you had a beautiful day and it was a pleasure and joy to work with you both! Much love! S wow...I swear each blog post I do gets longer and longer...gotta find a way to narrow these down...but for now...enjoy!
So my current trip to the beach inspired my second "Inspired." post! I've been looking all week for the perfect shot to use. I thought I would find it in a beach umbrella, or an ice cream cone, or a big plate of fresh seafood - something beachy. Instead, the juxtaposition of this warm terra cotta house against the crisp blue sky really spoke to me. I hope you enjoy this color scheme as much as I do! It just warms my soul! So...enjoy...beach house turned wedding!
Jesse and L'Shea are SO fun! They are just a vibrant couple that radiate happiness and love - gotta love working with people like that! L'Shea's favorite color is PINK! Every time I met with her from our initial consult to our final planning session she has been covered head to toe in pink...her outfit, her nails, her purse...so...it was absolutely NO surprise to show up to a completely pink wedding! Of course...there was a *tiny* bit of yellow thrown in in honor of Jesse and his Alma Mater - Georgia Tech...and a surprise exit vehicle PERFECT for the groom! Enjoy the images! Jesse and L'Shea...love you both and I'm so thankful I got to be part of your special day! **Special thanks to Jennifer Boggett who flew all the way from Ontario, Canada to help me shoot this wedding - seriously...could I have more amazing friends!? You were an amazing
Norcross, GA | BerryTree Photography Wedding Photographer | Nick & Amanda: Married! | Flint Hill
April 26, 2011So...I think this is going to be the longest post E.V.E.R.! First of all...I just love these two. Amanda is one of the absolute sweetest people you will ever meet. You can tell from her smile the moment you meet her - she just beams of happiness and joy! As she was leaving her wedding I got the privilege to be the last one to say goodbye to her and she told me that she appreciate everything so much and that she wanted to stay in touch and hang out! Seriously the sweetest compliment I could ever get from a bride. How blessed am I to be able to say Amanda is not merely my client but my friend. Awesome. Not to forget Nick...Nick is one of those guys that will do anything for his bride - whatever makes Amanda happy. His eyes beam with pride every time he sees
One of my best friends and photographer herself, Amber Anderson, tipped me off to this amazing website! http://www.design-seeds.com/ For photographers like us who pay VERY close attention to color and details this site is a color lovers dream! I seriously sat mesmerized scanning through the pictures on this site for eternity! Well...the site inspired me to do the same with my own photography but take it a little further. So...what you have below is the first installment of many! What I'll do is take a picture of something that inspires me and use that to then create a color palate and then turn that color palate into the beginnings of details for a wedding! This is going to be fun! Would love to hear your thoughts on this first one! Pink and yellow and green are pretty popular wedding colors...I picked out the plum color to add a little bit
