Emily and Sarah's Hotel Indigo Wedding in Athens

Hotel Indigo Athens wedding photography

I’m so excited to share photos from Sarah and Emily’s Hotel Indigo wedding that took place in Athens, Georgia earlier this year.

Everything about the wedding was soooo much fun, from Sarah and Emily getting ready in the same suite with friends and family to them dancing with friends during the reception.

One of my favorite photos of the day was taken during the champagne toast. Another favorite was taken as Sarah was approaching Emily for the first look. Check out the expression on Emily’s face … priceless.

My protege’ and associate photographer took an awesome photo of Emily showing Sarah the car lining in her coat. He also created a video of their ceremony.

The highlight of their ceremony was the choir serenade that Emily organized as a surprise for Sarah. Boy was she surprised. :)

Gilly Francis and her crew made sure the day unfolded without a hitch. They were great to work with, as were the folks at the Hotel Indigo in Athens.

I'm an Atlanta wedding photographer who takes soulful, quirky and honest photos ...

I'm also an adventurous traveler and all-round nerd. I love to hike with my beagle/cattle dog Roux and best friend/spouse.

I was born in Atlanta, moved around a lot--30 cities and 5 states--and then came back.

After graduating from the Art Institute of Atlanta, I took a job at asmall newspaper in south Georgia, where I photographedhospital teas, pecan farmers, and beauty queens.

I photographed a biker funeral, death penalty protests andTed Bundy while interning with the Associated Press.

While a photographer for two dailies in Florida, I photographed Ronald Reagan, a train derailment and the dedication of a screened-in porch.

An unexpected life turn took me to Vermont where I fell in love with Bernie Sanders and on to Indiana, where I edited photos for a major daily, and nerded out getting a master’s and PhD.

After teaching photojournalism at colleges and universities in Florida, Indiana and Mississippi, I returned to Atlanta to earn myfifth degree--a Master's of Divinity.

My passion for storytelling with my camera and my interest in religious diversity led my to the field of wedding photojournalism.

I have documented weddings large and small, Unitarian and Pagan, indoors and out, Christian and Muslim, in backyards and in churches. The most exotic wedding I have photographed took place in Mexico and was officiated by aMayan shaman.

When I'm not photographing weddings, portraits or corporate events, I work on personal photo projects, visit friends in amemory-care home, and volunteer at a recovery center.
