Intimate Wedding in Santa Rosa Beach, 30a | Taralee + Matt

Taralee + Matt’s intimate wedding is proof that a wedding planned in 3 months can be just as beautiful as the rest. All you need is an Airbnb on the beach, a dress and suit from ASOS, great HMU artists, a bouquet, and the rest is extra.⁠

They are from Atlanta and had spent many summers down in Seagrove together. It remained a special place for them even though they moved all over the country for grad school. They wanted to keep their celebration very small and casual with just family members from each of their families.

All of Taralee + Matt's friends and family pitched in on the day of the wedding to help bring it together and it was perfect. To see them all so willing to make this day special for them was just inspiring. It's one of the things I love about intimate weddings. I also love seeing everyone stand at intimate ceremonies. Seeing friends and family stand with the couple as they get married, there is something so special about it. Everyone pitches in to bring the wedding together and then everyone gets to watch the celebration unfold.
⁠
We took some time before the ceremony to explore the beach and it was amazing. I basically stood back and gave very minimal direction. I love doing this because it allows me to photograph in such an authentic way. The couple is interacting just as if I wasn’t there which I absolutely love. Just documented the moments as they happened.

I absolutely love photographing intimate wedding days, if you are interested in me photographing your wedding you can message me here!
