The Loft at Scott's Downtown in Gainesville, Ga. | Southern Distinction Magazine Series

Last but not least on this little journey through all the styled shoots for Southern Distinction Magazine, I am sharing The Loft at Scott's Downtown in Gainesville, Georgia! Scott's Downtown is located in the heart of historic Gainesville! They are an award winning restaurant with so many options for your event! They offer a beautiful airy loft space upstairs above their bar and restaurant. The natural window light made for the most glowing photographs of our models Katie and Joseph!

One of my fave parts about this shoot are the dress, the jewels AND the florals!!! Ha, that's almost EVERYTHING isn't it?! lol Aren't they so elegant thought?! Katie's bouquet is made of florals that were all blooming at the time of our shoot! Our florist from RLM Affairs was so creative!

2424 Warehouse at 9 Oaks Farm in Monroe, Ga. | Southern Distinction Magazine Series

So far I have covered two of the three venues 9 Oaks Farm has to offer their brides! This is the last one but it might be my FAVE! It's fun and filled with rustic charm! On Guest owner of the venues and florist, totally goes all out for her couples! She has decorated the 2424 Warehouse so beautifully! This venue has a bridal suite overlooking the warehouse space and the groom and has his own cottage for getting ready just outside on the same grounds. While they are still preparing the gardens for upcoming weddings, I can see that it will be unique with loads of opportunities for stunning sunset photographs!

Megan & Ben | Buckeyes Plantation Covington, Ga Wedding Venue

How pretty is Buckeyes Plantation!? About four weeks ago on a Tuesday, my sweet friend Katie Perkins (owner of Blondies) called me and asked me if I was available THAT Thursday to photograph a styled shoot for Southern Distinction Magazine!!! Wellllllll, I made myself available!!! lol This venue is so, so pretty and I'm very excited for the owners, Mr. and Mrs. McGarity! This venue is going to be the host of so many fabulous couples becoming husband and wife! 

Buckeyes Plantation is very well known for its bird hunting but couldn't you see yourself getting married on these grounds?! The owners of this gorgeous home have set up a beautiful Bridal Suite that opens up to the sound of the fountain flowing outside and over looks the gorgeous property! The grooms are not left out either! They have their own cabin with a grand view too!

Our beautiful couple, who are actually a REAL couple, Ben (Katie Perkins' brother) and Megan (the McGarity's daughter) were fabulous models!!! I really loved photographing these two! Please look over the vendor list! They are so wonderful to work with!
