"I have been crucified with Christ. it is no longer I who live, but christ who lives in me. and the life i now live in the flesh i live by faith in the son of god, who loved me and gave himself for me."
Galatians 2:20
There is something so special about weddings in the South. Southern weddings are known for their timeless, classy design, that I find myself falling in love with over and over again every wedding day. There's a special sweetness lingering in the atmosphere. I'm absolutely drawn to the kind, timeless, and precious charm of these days. Deep-rooted in tradition, Southern weddings will always have my heart. It is my greatest joy to serve couples all across the Southeast.
This passage is the foundation of what I do. I pray that throughout your wedding experience, you are able to see Christ through me. It is because of His grace and mercy that I am able to serve my couples. I pray that I reflect Him in all that I do!
CRAZY concept right there. I know. But the truth is, so many wedding days are set up for failure. This sounds harsh, but I've seen it over and over. The photographer arrives, nobody is ready, but the 8 hour timeline starts NOW. We rush into the first thing on the timeline, are playing catch up all day, and before you know it you're walking down the aisle. Next thing you know, you're leaving and it was all a blur.
Sure, it was still the best day of your life. But what if it could be ever better?
It can!!! And it should be.
I am the STRONGEST believer that your gallery reflects the pace of the day. My belief stems from my own wedding day. My photographers were just there. No stress, no wondering, they were present and around. They carefully created a timeline that allowed me to slip in and out of the bridal suite as it was time for each type of photo. Instead of spending the day outside in one spot for hours taking every kind of photo, it was spaced throughout the day.
So why do I care so much?
I remember my wedding day. I wasn't stressed. I turned my brain off. I never felt like time was running out. Instead of running from place to place, I made memories with the people nearest and dearest to me. And you know what? Because of my wonderful and amazing photographer, she captured these memories. All because she had the time.
So there you have it: my biggest wedding truth. I am so passionate about this, as I want all of my brides to love their day as much as I did. It would be my biggest honor to help create a wedding day that you will love and remember.
Details are often overlooked on wedding days. EPP serves a lot of brides who love the details and want to remember them forever! My goal is for you to see how special the details are. I never ever want anyone to feel silly for caring about the little things- I'm here to care with you!
I work best with brides who have a vision for their day! All of my brides are able to send me a pinterest board with their wedding dreams. This makes it so much easier to execute your vision! EPP brides care a LOT about their day!
The majority of my brides reach out because they are intrigued by my light approach to photos! I would say I have a light and airy approach, with a softer, whimsical finish. EPP wedding galleries look like a storybook!
It's ironic actually, because when planning my own wedding I pawned the floral planning off on my mom because I thought I didn't care. Boy am I glad she did! EPP wedding galleries look extra stunning when they are filled with beautiful florals!
My editing style is at it's absolute BEST when working with upbeat, classy colors! My brides lean toward light, girly, happy colors. EPP brides usually are not drawn to darker, moodier vibes!

EPP has a unique engagement photo planning style that my brides LOVE!
