Today, we're diving into J & M's captivating Atlanta City Hall wedding—an afternoon full of love, perfect lighting, and photographs that tell a story as rare as the couple themselves.
The Setting: Rooftop Garden at Atlanta City Hall
The Golden Hour Magic
J & M chose the rooftop garden at Atlanta City Hall for their 5:30 pm ceremony. Let's just say, the timing couldn't have been better!

The Photography: From Ceremony to Portraits
Family Moments & Moody Edits
Following the heartfelt ceremony, it was time for family portraits. The setting sun continued to offer the most natural, ethereal backdrop as we moved around the area. But what really made these photos stand out? J & M opted for our signature "moody edit," giving each snapshot a deeper, more emotive touch.
How Love Crossed Oceans: J & M's Unique Love Story
Love knows no boundaries, and J & M's love story is a testament to that. Having met on vacation in Jamaica, J, from LA, and M, from Kent, felt an immediate connection despite the miles that would soon separate them. "Love has brought us the distance," says J. Their journey hasn't been an easy one, spanning continents and overcoming several life challenges, including the Covid-19 pandemic and significant family losses. Yet, their Atlanta City Hall elopement marked the beautiful culmination of this chapter in their lives.
