Reynold's Plantation Wedding : Mattie's Bridals

It's very rare that my trips out of town happen without some form of misadventure.  My jaunt down to Greensboro, GA for Mattie's bridal session was no exception.  My mom was good enough to ride with me, and we actually made it to our destination early and without incident.  As the shoot went on and was close to wrapping up, we were feeling pretty good about ourselves and our ability to travel like the awesome independent women we are.  Then it was time to head home...and it happened.  Somehow, in the excitement of Mattie being all beautiful we managed to completely overlook the fact that we were apparently in the deer capital of America.  And we were going to have to drive 3+ hours, in the dark, surrounded by them.  Oh, and it had started to rain ever so slightly.  

Now, maybe you don't live somewhere that this is a problem, but in my general vicinity deer + dark + damp can mean a messed up front of your car.  And both myself and my mom have a very healthy sense of paranoia about the whole thing.  So what do we do?  Why, drive down the middle of the road honking the horn at random intervals, of course!  Mercifully, we really were pretty much alone, but I'm pretty sure that the few houses we drove past did not enjoy our performance.  So, ummm...sorry denizens of Highway 44 in Georgia.  Didn't mean to freak you out.  But I'm pretty sure you'll agree that these photos were TOTALLY worth it...

This first location is actually a private residence.  My mom and I were both hoping that the owners would want to adopt us, but thus far it hasn't happened.

Seriously, be just a little cuter, Mattie.  :-)

Mattie, there are no words.  Except that I love you!

What a good day that was! And what a beautiful bride and super nice family, too! Thanks for letting me tag along on this one. It was so much fun, despite being stalked by those "attack deer," both real and imaginary, all the way home. ;-)
