2025 Brings new opportunities!

We are rotating our focus to more intimate weddings & elopements in Florida and extending into Georgia & Alabama!

After focusing on higher end weddings with photo & film in the Atlanta market and destinations across the country and Caribbean with our founding company This is You, for nearly 15 years as well as the last 5 years operating our own 5 acre wedding venue, we are ready to bring that experience and love of weddings to smaller settings along the Emerald Coast of Florida. We will still travel (Orlando & Atlanta still being favorites), and look forward to giving you a qualified, affordable option to your wedding and/or photography needs.

THE SOUTHERNERS Photo and Film

Our first blog post! Although we have been photographing hundreds of weddings with our well established designer brand, we found that our services were out of reach of so many awesome brides. This is why we are here, to provide a balance for deserving Atlanta brides in quality and price. We look forward to creating both beautiful photographs and films as we launch a brand that will be more achievable for so many more brides that would otherwise have to suffer with the growing pains of an amateur on their most important day of their life. Looking forward to hearing from you soon, as will begin to fill this website with content as we grow.
