So I’m going to venture out here a bit and say Savannah has to be one of the most charming places in the South! When I heard about this lovely wedding to be set amidst an oh-so-lovely moss laden Savannah backdrop, I could not have been more happy to capture it! As you will see, these two are so much fun and Bonnie has such a beautiful old world feel to her that is absolutely breath-taking! Not to mention she is cute as a button -best putting on the dress shot ever, right?! Love!
The hotel where they got ready {The Savannah Mariott Riverfront} was so neat as well in that it overlooked the BEAUTIFUL Savannah River with giant boats passing by – so big they almost didn’t look real! As we wrapped up the shots at the hotel and the girls were putting on their final touches, I glanced out the window for one more peek at the stunning river view and….gasped.out.loud! There was a huge (and I mean slap-y0-grandma HUGE) storm heading not left, not right, but STRAIGHT towards us! No joke -I’m talking a WALL of water people!
I quickly found myself running through a blowing, flash-flooding monsoon to get to my car and I have to admit….it was actually quite charming ; ) I mean, I’d totally be lying if I said I wasn’t giggling as I ran, umbrella in hand, splashing like a child through the washing water and huge rain puddles! Ah, SUCH a movie seen….I was totally waiting for Ryan Gosling to run around the corner and scoop me up! ; ) But I digress…as fun as it was, I was so happy to see the skies clear up just as we pulled up to one of the most beautiful chapels I have ever seen (Bethseda Chapel) so we still had plenty of sun for our to-die-for mossy tree backdrops!
It was such a joy to shoot you two and your wedding so absolutely charming! A huge thank you to Steph for her wonderful help through the day!
