Into the Woods in Birmingham

For my design feature in Alabama Weddings 2022, The Wanderlust Issue, I wanted to bring the finer details of a Southern wedding deep into a forest setting for a dreamy visual that spoke to the concept of wanderlust. My creative team brought all their talents to the great outdoors for a styled shoot full of bridal inspiration with a few nods to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, which would hint at our 2023 issue, Storytellers. I’m also proud to have an image from this shoot grace the Sept/Oct cover of AW, on newsstands now, with all the fall feels. As I share this feature, I’m also preparing my 2023 styled shoot and have dreamed up more beauty with another fantastic team. Stay tuned for the story to unfold this January.

Sofreh Aghd in Atlanta

Sara and Anthony’s rooftop wedding at the Peachtree Club produced some of my favorite wedding images by The Scobeys, all with sweeping views of the Atlanta skyline. Working with the bride and groom to produce the perfect sofreh aghd, the centerpiece of a traditional Persian wedding, continues to be something I remember because I love getting to understand different couples’ beliefs and traditions and bring them to life. It’s the beauty of telling love stories of all kinds that makes me fall in love with what I do over and over.
