Cara + Dustin’s Barnsley Gardens Wedding l Wedding Photographer l Atlanta, GA

Okay….I must warn you to brace yourself for a post full of incredible beauty…may as well grab an ice cream and make it a whole experience -you know you want to  ;) A gorgeous couple beaming with love, one of the most beautiful venues in the South, the ever-talented Edge Design team with perfect details and flowers at every turn, absolutely gorgeous hair and makeup by Patti and her team at Brushworx, and the amazing blessing of a beautiful, breezy spring day all in ONE you ask? Yes my lovelies… Cara and Dustin’s Wedding was…dare I say, perfection?! Mmmm… I do! …dare, that is  :)  I absolutely adore Barnsley Gardens (as you may remember *wink, wink*  ;) and was over the moon to not only go back, but to get to capture such a wonderful day amidst the beauty of it all! If you live in Georgia and haven’t been, let me tell you… do not pass go or collect $200, get it on the sched because it is…well, beyond words.

I have to tell you…when we set Cara and Dustin up for their first look I was totally determined to be strong and put on my big girl pants! You know, save my concealer that was probably already melting in the sun : ) But when I saw Dustin start to tear up as he gently touched his bride on the shoulder and they turned and embraced with deep adoration…phew! CANCEL CHRISTMAS! It was all over…ah, the sweetness! ; )  Let’s be honest though, that’s totally one of the things I love most about my job…the incredible moments that could never be put into words. And so I shall continue to march ahead with waterproof mascara and kleenex in hand and take in it all in! Bah-ring it!
Ah, but I digress ; ) It was truly such an incredible love-filled day from their first look, to their vows, to their wonderful friends and family; I can’t thank you guys enough for choosing me to capture it! You two are amazing together and I wish you so much love and blessing in your marriage! And of course a special thank you to Nina for all of her fantastic help second shooting!
