What I love so much about Nallely and Javid is their tender love they have for each other. Both of the two met at college, where Nallely was pursing a Bachelor’s in Math and Javid going to business school. Javid is in the military, and was about to leave for training when Nallely reached out to me about her wedding. She reached out to me, telling me that they were planning on having a fast engagement and needed photos together before he went away. Nallely told me that she was so excited about doing life together and that he would return only days before the wedding.

We began the morning photographing Nallely and Javid’s first look at Montaluce Winery, located in the heart of the North Georgia Mountains. They had the sweetest first look and the love they had for one another was so apparent. Nallely wore a beautiful flower crown and a gown she bought off the rack from David’s Bridal.

The two were wed at Juliette Chapel, a wedding venue north of Atlanta, directly after the first look and portraits with only their immediate families in attendance. It was such a stunning day, and I’m honored to have documented their love and celebrate alongside their families .
