Wedding Photography That Keeps It Real
If there’s ever a time to keep it real, it’s on your wedding day.
And real relationships? They feature two (or three) personalities that shine bright alone and even brighter together. They have beautiful lumps, bumps, wrinkles, freckles, and scars that deserve to be celebrated. They involve big emotions that lead to giggles, tears, snorts, and sniffles.
And yeah, real people can feel awkward in front of the camera. Except when I’m the one behind it.
“We are so so so grateful for your wonderful work, your comforting personality, and your ability to make us feel comfortable enough to show our true selves in our wedding photos. The day wouldn’t have been the same without you and your magical spirit!” — Kyrstyn
No matter what your wedding looks like – bring on the big weddings with extended wedding parties, the microweddings, and the elopements – your celebration deserves to be captured with a high level of talent and attention. If you’re building your day with intentionality and authenticity, I’m the Georgia wedding photographer for you.
My Process
- Discover
We’ll meet for a phone or video call consultation and geek out over your favorite movie, who your cat’s named after, and your love story. If it’s a fit, I’ll build you a custom proposal, have you sign a contract, pay a retainer, and we’ll officially be booked! - Plan
Next, you’ll complete an in-depth questionnaire (hello, fun date night activity) so I can understand each of you both individually and as a couple. We’ll also discuss logistics for your big day. Expect me to check in a few more times throughout the planning process, with a final call around one month before the wedding or photoshoot. - Photograph
Your day is finally here! Time to have some fun. My approach to wedding and engagement photography is always natural, relaxed, and fun — capturing who you are as a team and as individuals. A week after our session, you’ll catch some sneak peeks on social media, with your final gallery delivered a few weeks after that.
“Working with her was 10/10 amazing from beginning to end. She was a great communicator – easy to talk to, quick to reply to emails, and always upfront and clear about what she needed from us when. She was relaxed and fun to be around, which made it easy to enjoy the wedding day despite our lack of sleep and typical awkwardness around cameras. Also, it was really important to me to work with a photographer who understood the wedding that I wanted.” – Hannah & Peter
Meet the Photographer
I’m Raven (she/her), and my superpower is getting my clients to feel comfortable in front of the camera. I think it stems from my own awkwardness in front of the camera and never feeling like I belonged in front of it. So I realized early on, after falling in love with photography, that I wanted to create space in front of my lens for absolutely everyone to feel natural. How do I do it? By getting to know you really, really well. By putting you at ease in your favorite place with your favorite person. And by cracking the occasional fart joke.
Wedding photography & elopement photography start at $3200.
Portrait sessions and engagement sessions start at $550.
All packages include myself as the main photographer, printed products, an online gallery for sharing & viewing, and a USB of photos + printing release.
You don’t fit in a box and neither does what you’re looking for.

“Working with Raven was so easy, a relief after all the stress building up to my wedding. I always knew she was on top of things, that I could direct her or ask things of her, and that she would be prompt in her response. She was comfortable to work with, had a positive attitude all day, and took some of the most amazing photos I could’ve dreamed of. She captured my and my husband’s vision perfectly. And leading up to the big day, she was always in touch and easy to reach. A dream come true of a photographer!” – Linden & Pablo
TRAVEL
Travel within a certain distance of Atlanta is included in all photography packages.
I’m a Georgia wedding photographer, but I’d love to work with you in another location! There will be additional fees to cover my transportation, lodging, meals, and carbon footprint offsetting, so contact me to get a quote specific to you!
“You know, I was really nervous reaching out as a plus size person… Images with me in them have never been my favorite. But I cannot stop staring at our wedding photos. You captured us at our best, and all I can see in the photos is the love. No self doubt or awkwardness. I will never be able to thank you enough for that.” – Chelsea
Have a Question?
Are you available for my wedding?
I sure hope so! The best way to find out about my current availability is to contact me.
Do you work with LGBTQ+ couples?
Abso-fucking-lutely. That’s not even a question in my mind, just like it’s not a question if I’ll work with older clients, plus-size clients, BIPOC clients, disabled clients, or throuples/triads. I respect you and your love story in whatever form it takes.
Where do you travel to?
My wedding and elopements include travel within four hours of Atlanta. So even though I’m a Georgia wedding photographer, I’m here for you. And as of 2023, I’m thrilled to announce that I’m now including travel fees to the Raleigh/Durham area. I love traveling outside of these areas as well, but travel fees will be involved. Reach out for a custom quote!
Why do you include albums and prints with your packages?
Because having printed photos from your wedding or photoshoot are the easiest way to enjoy them, and that’s what they’re for — to be enjoyed! We took these photos so you could remember a special moment in your life with a special person by your side. By including albums and prints with my packages and making the process easy, I’m enabling that experience for you.
I have another question. Help!
No problem — I’ve probably answered your question on my FAQ page. But if not, just reach out. I’m happy to answer!
It’s Your Time To Shine
Yes, you. Even if you feel awkward in front of the camera. Even if you’re eloping. Even if this is your third marriage. Even if your relationship doesn’t look like what you see in bridal magazines. Your love story is beautiful — and it’s time to capture it.
