Destination Wedding | Atlanta Wedding Photographer | Josh & Katie

January 6, 2021

Pack your bags because weโ€™re headed to Alabama! Back in November, we jumped in the car and made the trek to Mobile, Alabama for Josh and Katie’s destination wedding.

We first met Katie at her adorable AirBnB to capture her and her girls getting ready.

From there, we went to the three-acre park that features lush greenery, sculptures, and a picturesque view of the ship traffic along with the busy port at Cooper Riverside Park for bridal party photos and Josh and Katie’s first look!

Then it was off to the gorgeous Kirk House and Gardens, where Katie and Josh tied the knot among beautiful landscape around the historic home with ivy growing up the sides.

Every colorful detail had been planned out perfectly, so when it was time to walk down the aisle, Katie and Josh were calm and relaxed and ready to say their “I Dos”
