Awarded Best of Zola
I had a very specific idea in mind for our wedding decor — something soft, clean, and elegant without being too flashy. What the team delivered was exactly that and more. The all-white florals, the gentle candlelight, and the way everything was arranged just made the whole space feel peaceful and beautiful. It was the kind of setup that made you pause and take it all in. Our guests kept saying how calming and classy everything looked. It really felt like the decor matched who we are as a couple. I also really appreciated how smooth the whole process was — I never felt stressed or overwhelmed. A big thank you to Nur and Afsana for making sure every detail was handled with care. I could tell they truly cared about making it right, and it showed in every corner of the space.

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Candid & Story-Telling driven with a soft, nostalgic film influence! I have a strong focus on genuine emotions over stiff posing, capturing the intimate in-between moments that just feel natural and timeless!

HLS Photography GA was absolutely amazing throughout our entire wedding experience. From our first meeting with Hannah for our engagement photos, we knew we had found our lifetime family photographer. Hannah's communication was phenomenal - she was so responsive and professional, and really helped make the entire process seamless. The quality of their work was truly phenomenal, with stunning photos that captured all the special moments and emotions of our big day. Hannah had such a wonderful, positive energy and really felt like close friends by the end of the night. We are over the moon with our wedding photos and cannot recommend HLS Photography GA highly enough!

There is no better job in the world! In our opinion at least. We strive to produce a wedding film that is tailored to you. We know that planning your wedding can be stressful but when it finally arrives, it's over in a blink of an eye. We are here to capture those moments, so you can relive the best day of your life for generations.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for vendors, I had stressed for weeks (okay, maybe months…) over finding the right videographer for our wedding day. Unlike a photographer, which feels like a given, I wanted to find someone that could capture our day beautifully, both through the lens and the emotions that would make up that most special day, for us to fully justify it. Beyond that, my husband does videography for a living, so that made it ten times harder (talk about a critical eye!) But immediately upon seeing Ben’s work and talking to him over the phone, both Wes and I knew he was the perfect person for us. Not only was he extremely friendly, courteous, and kind throughout the entire process, all of his videos were done so beautifully, I felt like I was in the room. And on the actual day, Ben was a JOY to work with. Despite all the usual chaos that a wedding day brings, not to mention the crazy South Carolina June heat and humidity, Ben kept his cool, always being professional and flexible with whatever the day brought. His attitude was so uplifting and made the experience all the more special to have him there. And when we got the final video edit back …to say I was blown away would be an understatement (the angles, the color… I mean, CHEFS KISS!) While the day is a truly whirlwind, it’s hard to take in the moment fully especially when looking back on it, but Ben was able to truly encapsulate it for all its meaning, humor, and joyfulness. I can’t wait to replay it over & over again to bring myself back to a day I will never soon forget thanks to Ben and his incredible work!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a more talented and professional photographer for our wedding than Jessica! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in great hands. She has an incredible eye for detail and a unique ability to capture not just moments but emotions. Our wedding took place in the mountains, and her photos perfectly captured the stunning scenery in a way that felt so personal. The way she played with natural light and incorporated the landscape into our photos was nothing short of amazing. What truly sets her apart is her ability to bring out the personalities of everyone in front of her lens. My husband and I felt completely at ease, and the photos reflect who we are as a couple so beautifully. From candid shots to posed portraits, every image tells a story that feels authentic to us. Her warm and calming presence on our wedding day was exactly what we needed. She was organized, attentive, and blended seamlessly into the day, capturing everything. We are absolutely in love with the photos and will cherish them forever. If you’re looking for someone who can capture not just the visuals but the soul of your special day, Jessica is the perfect match for you!

She did it happily and without judgement. Couldn't recommend her more!

Courtney and her team at Combe & Co were AMAZING! As an event planner and type A personality it was hard to turn something over to someone when you have a vision in your head of what it should look like Those fears and that anxiety were put to rest as soon as I met Courtney and her team. Her month, week and day of coordination went off without a hitch. There were hiccups as with all weddings but I never even knew about them. Her team knew what I needed before I ever even said anything. I cant recommend Combe & Co to enough people.

My love for photography is my passion. I take it with me everywhere I go, I capture pictures of my daily life and I print those pictures once a month, I know it will be worth it when I'm old and look back at life. Being a wedding photographer is a very emotional/technical thing, it is a challenge to create technically correct, well-composed, perfectly lit, beautiful images all day long, every weekend. Wedding photography is not for everyone, but it's for me! I love that challenge. Bring it on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Andrea is a spectacular photographer & was such a pleasure to work with! We had several meetings leading up to our wedding to discuss our vision, wants, & must have shots. She leaves herself open to you all day which came in handy as we asked her to stay an additional hour & she agreed without hesitation. Turn around for full galleries is super quick, we got ours just over a week after our wedding. Photos were one less thing to worry about and we can’t be more grateful for that!

When my husband and I started looking for our wedding venue, we had pretty high expectations. We are full-time wedding photographers and most of the venues we have been to are pretty cookie cutter and not at all what we wanted for our own wedding. You’ve got your barns, ballrooms, and industrial chic venues and then you’ve got something completely different like New Holland. New Holland has character, charm, and a one-off nature that was exactly what we were looking for. We knew that when we decided to have our wedding after being married already for ten years, it had to be at New Holland. Sophie and Reagan made the experience booking and hosting our wedding effortless. Our entire wedding celebration was unconventional, and because of that, it required a whole lot of coordination with activities and food for our guests that typical weddings don’t necessitate. Sophie and Reagan handled everything the day of the wedding perfectly. It was like one big choreographed dance. I know that without them, our wedding would have been a huge, disorganized embarrassment, and we are so grateful they helped make our day run smoothly so that we could enjoy it. If you’re the kind of bride who is looking for something bespoke and can’t find it at any of the venues you’ve visited so far, I know you’ll find it at New Holland.

RLM Affairs was everything I dreamed of and more. When we first started looking, I had never even heard of RLM Affairs. I saw some pictures online and decided to check it out. When we got there, we both fell in love. We loved how simple RLM Affairs made it. Everything was laid out right in front of us. The only thing we needed to worry about was photography, and the DJ. Resia was also AMAZING. She made sure all of my questions were answered and helped everything go so smooth. My bridesmaids and groomsman especially loved her ability to always keep a drink in their hands whether before the ceremony or during pictures. I could not imagine our big day with out her! Finally, Kelly, the in house florist was amazing as well. I brought in a lot of my own decorations but she helped with florals and making sure my vision came to life. If you're looking for an amazing venue, I highly recommend RLM Affairs.

Throughout the whole process Melanie was amazing to work with. The venue is beautiful with a perfect view of the mountains. Despite rain in the forecast and drizzling the morning of the wedding, the field has amazing drainage and Melanie’s team worked hard to set out all of the chairs and dry them off. We were prepared to move the ceremony under the pavilions for rain, but ended up with perfect weather. Two months before the wedding Melanie sent a helpful questionnaire about all of our details to make sure we were on the same page. My husband and I graduated college three weeks before the wedding, so Melanie graciously held a thorough meeting post-graduation with our families to go through everything once the chaos of exams and graduation ceremonies were over. She is kind and generous while maintaining clear expectations about what the venue can offer. In the pictures of the tables settings you can see the table runners, lace table runners, and vases (including the floating candle vases) that we used from the venue. She has a great supply of helpful decorations. There are two cabins on site that we used for the groomsmen and the florist to set up at the venue. The honeymoon suite is adorable and perfect for the night after the wedding! The barn was perfect for dancing and dinner under the pavilion was magical. If you are looking for an outdoor venue in the mountains, you cannot choose a better place.

After a great engagement session, we were so excited to see her again for the wedding weekend and have her on our team. Neither of us had done professional photoshoots before, and she walked us through the process and gave us simple prompts to follow that made it easy! We asked for pictures that really captured the feeling of the day, rather than photos that were overly posed or only taken for social media -- and she delivered! We still haven't received our whole gallery (since we just got married!) but we're in love with the photos we got back and are so excited to see the full set. I would absolutely hire Elizabeth again.

Planning was so easy and we simply sent her music right through Spotify for each part of our wedding, so cool. But here is where things are taken to a whole new level, anyone can have all of the gear, and skill that Sue and JB Jams has but not everyone is Sue. She was attentive, quick thinking, adaptive, added a matching energy to our event and didn’t have unfair pricing. If you are looking for an event DJ, MC and good human, do you and your event a favor and book JB Jams.

We got married at Shiloh Gardens and it was the perfect choice for our special day. From start to finish, Linda, the event coordinator, was responsive and easy to work with whenever we had questions or needed something. The venue itself is stunning with lush green gardens that felt private and peaceful, which created the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful and serene the space was! The open layout gave us the flexibility to set up exactly how we wanted, and everything felt stress-free because Linda made herself available throughout the planning process. We highly recommend Shiloh Gardens to any couple looking for a gorgeous, tranquil setting for their wedding. Photography: @marycatherine.photos
