This past spring we had the pleasure of working together with a wonderful team of wedding professionals to highlight one of the best-kept secrets in Georgia. Located in LaGrange, Georgia, the Bisham Manor is a Tudor-style castle with all the luxuries of a modern mansion home.
Inspiration for this styled shoot came from the architecture of the house itself. The goal; reflect the custom, bespoke feel of the venue with the modern artistic style of today’s bride. An airy color pallet of blush, gold, ivory, and pale blue-green hues were contrasted nicely by the earthy, rustic tones of the stone and brick walls of the mansion, as well as the dark green landscape surrounding the property.
We are proud to announce that the highly regarded online luxury wedding blog, Strictly Weddings has just published this shoot on their website! Check out the feature located here.
Many thanks to the editors at Strictly Weddings for their consideration. Their blog post has many images; however, we’d like to share some of our personal favorite here.
A classic Mercedes-Benz roadster was just another of the many details that made this project such a wonderful collaboration. Something we affectionately call “Southern Tudor Couture”.
The Bisham Manor is no ordinary house. It’s custom made. The same is true of the beautiful wedding gowns used on this day. Couture dresses made of silk gazar and french lace with hand-sewn cathedral veils call to the modern style of today’s bride. A tall, expertly decorated wedding cake helps mimic the height of the house.
Imported fine china with a British-European style complimented the high-end English Tudor history the home was designed for. No two place settings are alike, thus tapping into today’s style of layering patterns and textures for ultimate design.
Luxurious linens dressed the tables and beautiful floral arrangements echoed the color scheme, providing a very modern, contemporary feel to the look of the shoot.
Once again, we would like to express our sincere thanks to the Bisham Manor staff and all of the vendors listed below that bravely navigated morning thunderstorms and a very hectic schedule to make this shoot possible. If you are engaged or planning a wedding, we highly recommend all of them for your special day.

Elegance meets exuberant color. That’s the best way we can describe the beauty of a Nigerian wedding. Chuma+Belle’s big day that began at the Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel for bridal prep, followed by a ceremony at the Holy Spirit Catholic Church and then back to the the ballroom at the Renaissance Waverly embodied everything you would expect from a wedding. A truly loving couple with strong family bonds who know how to celebrate in style. It’s how all these factors play out that makes their experience so unique.
Traditional outfits that feature their culture and heritage compliment modern, sophisticated details. The day begins with Belle’s beautiful couture dress and Chuma’s sleek black suit. By the time the reception arrives, a quick change of outfits provides an explosion of color. In particular, the Aso-ebi custom is incredibly eye catching. With this Nigerian wedding tradition, outfits are made from matching fabrics and pattern and worn by family members to denote unity, support, and to represent sides of the family. Belle chose to feature Ankara lace in a rich hue of yellow with forest green accents for her wedding party. Friends and family join in the festivities with their own color combinations for a truly uplifting pallet of colors. Touching family tributes and native dance displays provide an atmosphere unlike other weddings you may experience. Heartfelt thanks to Chuma+Belle for allowing us to share this journey!

A walk in the clouds. No, not the 1995 movie. We’re referring to the romantic rooftop wedding that Steve and Margot pulled off at the Peachtree Club in downtown Atlanta. Nothing but blue skies surrounded this couple and their guests as the warm rays of the sun peered over the skyline on this very chilly and windy afternoon. A black and gold theme set the tone for modern elegance across all the details. From the beautiful Bloomin Bouquets floral arrangements to those gorgeous black BCBG bridesmaid dresses. It was perfect.
We had such a great time working with everyone in this wedding. Such a relaxed atmosphere. Nerves could not be found anywhere. It was just a casual weekend wedding getaway in the clouds in one of the best venues in Atlanta. To make things even sweeter, Steve’s Michigan State Spartans made the NCAA Final Four and DJ Euro Andy had everyone rocking the night away. Really, what’s not to like? In any case we send our heartfelt thanks to Steve + Margot for allowing us to document all the memories of that day. Let’s relive some of those moments right now!

It was a cool but sunny Saturday afternoon in Durham, North Carolina for this lovely wedding. Chad + Jaime were simply a blast to photograph with their carefree, easy-going personalities. They truly were able to enjoy the company of their family and friends without worrying about every little detail of the wedding. They transitioned seamlessly from the ceremony at the church to the reception at Bay 7; formerly a tobacco warehouse from the historic district dating back to the 1800s. Now a days this is one of the coolest venues in the entire city. Thanks Chad + Jaime for bringing us along for the ride!
A few weeks ago we photographed the wedding of Charles (Chuck) and Betsy. I met Betsy over coffee at Starbucks to talk about her wedding and how we could capture it for her. I was referred to her by a mutual friend and from the moment I met her I knew we had to work together. She is the sweetest, most kind young lady I’ve met. Hearing her describe in detail a recent trip to Japan demonstrates how she enjoys experiencing other cultures. That fascinated me. So young and so adventurous!
She also talked extensively about her fiance and how they met. At first they were just friends but in time that friendship very quickly blossomed into a beautiful relationship. Now you can just see his eyes light up whenever she arrives.
All throughout they day of the wedding the emotions flowed, from the moment her father first saw his little girl in her dress, to the moment when the couple exchanged vows. It’s really beautiful to see how this wedding came together with the help of family and friends. That’s why I love weddings. I get a front row seat to every story and those moments live forever in photographs. It’s actually quite special.
Congratulations Chuck and Betsy. It was a pleasure to work with you and your special day.

What a wonderful wedding Ramón and Escarlett Melissa had a few weeks back. Although it rained all day, it didn’t dampen their spirits,
