July 30th, Joe and I decided we would elope on our Colorado-bound roadtrip. On July 31st, I bought my dress (on clearance at BCBG) and bright and early on August 3rd I headed to Atlanta where I’d pick up Joe from the airport. We were married on August 4th and headed to North Carolina on the 5th. We decided to take the slight detour to Asheville, NC as a quasi-honeymoon and to celebrate Joe’s 3 year vegan-niversary. Asheville is one of the most vegan-friendly small towns in the US.
While in Atlanta we stayed at an adorable bed and breakfast in Grant Park. The owners were very friendly and had no problems accommodating our vegan diet.

On the way to North Carolina, we stopped at an old-fashioned convenience store that advertised views of Tallulah Gorge. I am a sucker for waterfalls and old things so we stopped.
. It was HOT HOT HOT, so we stopped in front of Paula Dean’s restaurant to grab a cold one.
Brandon bought a body casting kit for Marla. When she contacted me a few months ago to shoot her maternity pictures, she said she wanted to take pictures of them doing it together. I have a whole series taken during the event that are really great documentary shots- but they’re a little too private to post here 
Finally, I drove them to a spot I remembered passing by months and months ago. The old garage had great light.
