R+C's Wedding
The perfect Savannah DIY wedding
There’s something sooo good about a DIY wedding when a couple makes the whole day completely their own, and these two did exactly that. Their Savannah wedding took place at a family member’s home by the water, with the prettiest spring colors, a vintage ’60s Chevy that’s been in the family for generations, and everyone already taking shots together before the ceremony even started lol.
I loved this day SO much because it felt like them from beginning to end. Nothing felt overly managed or like they were trying to squeeze themselves into somebody else’s idea of what a wedding should look like. Everyone was relaxed, the house was full of people they loved, and the whole thing felt more like one giant celebration than a production.
As a traveling Colorado wedding photographer, these are the days I live for. Give me a beautiful setting, a couple I adore, a little bit of chaos, and a hundred tiny moments happening all at once. I’m gonna notice all of it.

Kyra did our wedding photos and our engagement photos! She is absolutely FANTASTIC & I cannot recommend her enough. She kept me calm, cool, and collected while perfectly documenting the day for us. She never makes it feel like the camera is on you. When planning, I constantly said I didn’t want it to feel like a show and SHE NAILED IT!! All of my pictures are gorgeous. It’s been a few months and I still am obsessing over our wedding pictures daily.
This wedding is such a good example of why I’ll always love an at-home or backyard wedding in Savannah. You get so much freedom to make the day personal, whether that means bringing out a family car, throwing a party by the water, doing things completely out of order, or just spending more time actually hanging out with your people.
And these two made it SO easy to love photographing their day. The whole wedding was colorful, warm, funny, sentimental, and full of people who were genuinely excited for them. Literally my favorite kind of gallery to deliver.
If you’re planning a DIY wedding in Savannah, a backyard wedding, or something a little less traditional along the Georgia coast, hiiii, I would love to hear about it. [Tell me what you’re planning.]
