Atlanta Wedding Photographers Share Historic ...

As an Atlanta wedding photographer, I get to shoot at some amazing locations. As some of you may know I am involved in historic preservation and I love historic venues. This week we are going to cover some of my favorite historic places of worship in Atlanta. I am also sharing a map of the historic churches, temples and synagogues in Atlanta. I hope you enjoy this little tour as much as I do.

The Temple, established in 1860 to serve the needs of the German-Jewish immigrants, is the only non-Christian historic house of worship in Midtown. The neoclassical Temple was designed by noted Atlanta classicist Philip Trammell Shutze in 1931. While dramatically scaled back from the pre-Depression plans, the sanctuary takes cues from Venetian churches Shutze saw while studying in Rome. During the 1950’s and 1960’s, The Temple was a center for civil rights advocacy. Its civil rights role was one of the central themes in the movie Driving Miss Daisy.

Payne-Corley House

Payne-Corley House Is An Atlanta Wedding Photographer's Dream

Payne-Corley House Is An Atlanta Wedding Photographer's Dream

This week’s blog is on the Payne-Corley House.  As an Atlanta wedding photographer at atlantaartisticweddings it is one of my favorite places to shoot. It is located in the Duluth Historic District right across the street from the train tracks that go through downtown.

While all these physical upgrades make for a beautiful venue where Payne-Corley shines is in its staff and their event training.  Krista and Mike together have over 60 years of experience in event planning.  Their gracious staff make every guest feel at home and at ease.  They are quick and know how to think on their feet.  I particularly remember them accommodating a wedding on one of the rare occasions when it snowed in Duluth. 

Intimate Wedding at Payne Corley House

Intimate Wedding at Payne Corley House

This week’s wedding is Jack and Gloria. It was an intimate wedding at the Payne Corley House, where a few lifelong friends and family got together on a beautiful day to celebrate two people who found a partner in life.

The Payne Corley House, built in 1873, is one of my favorite venues in Atlanta. The owners Krista and Michael Ganley have turned this historic mansion into a premier wedding turnkey venue, that can provide you with flowers from Abby’s at the Cottage, food from one the top cooks in Atlanta, talented professional wedding planners and a beautiful setting for your event.

And just like that, we’ve reached December. What an amazing year it’s been for Atlanta Artistic Wedding Photography. We’ve captured so many beautiful couples’ big days and shared their stories of true love and unadulterated happiness. Though 2018 may be winding down, we still have more weddings to share. 

On Saturday, Nov. 24, we had the wonderful opportunity to document Alison and Brett’s lovely autumn wedding at the gorgeous Payne-Corley House located in historic Duluth, Ga.—an emerging area just northeast of Atlanta.
