Elopement – [ih-lohp-muh nt] – Noun

“An act or instance of running off secretly, as to be married.”

Yeah –  not all elopements are created equal. Nowadays elopements are less about being secretive, and more about being special and intimate. Maybe you’re just such a giving person, having the spotlight on you just isn’t appealing. Maybe traveling and visiting somewhere AMAZING is more important than making sure the tablecloths are the right shade of blush. Maybe being surrounded by 10, 15, or 50 of your closest friends or relatives sounds way more meaningful than 300 of your parent’s business associates (although they do give great gifts…).

I don’t want to sound like I don’t love the big elaborate weddings – but a big wedding isn’t the only type of wedding, and I happen to really respect and love couples who choose the more intimate route. And today that’s what elopements are starting to mean. Less than 100 guests. A shorter day, with a bigger emphasis on intimacy than size.

I specialize in helping you remember and capture the most important events on your most important day. Let’s get to know each other and make your intimate wedding perfect.

The Johnson Family

About our crazy family

My name’s Bud Johnson and I’m in love with love. I’m a full-time wedding photographer based out of Savannah, GA. I emphasize moments and intimacy in my style, and love sharing what I do with others. I love telling stories (check my instagram stories for the random tall tales my son, Titus, and I think up).

When I’m not photographing love stories I’m usually spending time with my amazing wife (and business partner!) Sarah, and with our amazing three kids, Titus (5), Maggie Mae (3), and Finn (1).

I’m mildly addicted to Diet Mountain Dew. I’ve probably read every photography blog available. I love YouTube and have started my own channel for tutorials and silliness. I run at least three times a week. And I’m a compulsive DIY-er. I absolutely love life and try to live it to the fullest. I can’t wait to meet you!
