Brenda Upton Photography bio picture

Welcome

Hi there!  And welcome to my blog! 

I'm Brenda, and I LOVE being a photographer.  Being able to do something for a living that never really feels like "work" is amazing.  I am a 2005 graduate of the University of Georgia where I studied art and photography.  Since then I starting digging my heals in all areas of photography trying to find my niche.  Once I tagged along as a second shooter at a wedding with a friend, I knew I had found it.  I love that I get to be a part of such an important day in people's lives and document it for generations to pass on. 

When I'm not shooting or editing, you can find me hanging out with my husband, Ben at home in Stone Mountain.  And next to us on the couch are our two favorite "manimals", our pups Jack and Shorty.  This blog will not only follow my recent wedding and portrait work, but you'll get an occasional post about the happenings in our neck of the woods. 

So, enjoy!  And please contact me if you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting!

Carrie & Kyle: Cedar Plantation

It was a beautiful Friday night in Acworth back in June when we had the opportunity to shoot the wedding of Carrie and Kyle. I met up with Carrie at the hotel to get some getting ready shots before we headed over to the gorgeous Cedar Plantation.
Last detail, the veil…Proud Mama.

Marci & Justin: Sneak Peek

Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE a fun jumping shot! You may think they are cheesy, but I love the random different things people do and faces they make. For example check out Marci and her lovely bridesmaids…now they got some serious air!
