    Stress free wedding photos

    My boyfriend and I decided to elope over the Christmas holidays and, while we didn’t want to stress over details, knew we wanted some nice photos to capture the day. Having met Courtney when she did some work for my employer, I emailed her and was so grateful she made time for us on short notice and for the day after Christmas. We had a great time and everything was very relaxed.

    Courtney did a great job before and during the wedding making sure we got the photos we needed. Being so organized beforehand made the process so smooth. The photos were great and I really appreciated the visit post wedding to have the opportunity to see the photos and order some. I know so many brides who years later don't have any photos to share. Courtney was easy to work with and very responsive.

    Courtney was great in accommodating many special requests and she captured the exact blend of posed and candid shots that tell the perfect story of our wedding.

    Courtney was so great to work with for our wedding! From the initial contact, to the boudoir session, to day of the wedding, she was always quick to answer my questions (no matter how silly they seemed) and kept me and my family smiling the whole time.

    In a few words about Courtney's gift of photography, is that she captured our special moments, the feelings we shared with each other, with our friends & family and the beauty of our special occasion. Our wedding was outside in nature, very casual and now we have all those wonderful memories to hold dear to our heart.

    One word - SPECTACULAR! Choosing Courtney as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made, next to getting hitched! ;) She is delightful - professional, but personable, hard-working, and sweet. We have had many family pictures taken with pro photographers, each time more disappointing than the ones before. But Courtney restored our faith in finding someone who can capture not just beautiful pictures, but beautiful MOMENTS. She captured pictures of things I didn't even remember, or know, had happened. And she's invisible! I don't know how she does it, but you forget she's there! She is scooting around, taking shots of everything, without disturbing the events of the day at all. One of my favorite pictures she captured is of my 5yo son snuggled up against me, a little bit nervous about the day, but listening carefully to the officiant's words. She's absolutely amazing, and I will be calling her back for all of our celebratory photo shoots in the future!

    Courtney is a fabulous, talented, and flexible photographer. My husband and I had several special requests and she was able to accommodate them all. Best of all, she doesn't make the photography all about her--some photogs are total divas and Courtney is all about capturing your special day well so you can go experience your special day--not making you sit for hours and hours!

    My fiancé and I were searching desperately for a quality photographer that fit our budget. We were beginning to think there would be no one that could meet our needs when I found Courtney on a wedding website. She was highly reviewed so we decided to email her for more information. Right away we noticed a difference from all of the other photographers we had reached out to. She responded quickly and enthusiastically. She shared pricing information and suggestions for locations in the area. Courtney followed up with us intermittently to be sure that she was answering all of our questions. We finally decided she was our match and scheduled! Courtney was also extremely flexible. Our initial day we scheduled "washed out." Due to rain, there was no way for us to take our pictures. She fit us into her schedule the following weekend. Then, we found out the location we had chosen would be packed due to an event in the area. She let us know immediately and allowed us to pick a new location. Also, we received an email from her with pointers from make up suggestions to clothing recommendations for the best shots! When the time came for our session, we could not be happier. She was friendly and outgoing. We felt so relaxed and at ease. Courtney was open to our suggestions and utilized the props we brought in. The turn around was also very quick. We received our pictures 3 days later and they were AMAZING! The lighting, the locations, the emotions she captured resulted in beautiful pictures. I strongly recommend Courtney for brides and grooms looking for quality and a great value. You will not be disappointed!

    Courtney was amazing! She was easy to talk to and was able to capture exactly what I wanted. We were able to choose what photos we wanted beforehand, which made it move quickly and smoothly after the ceremony. She was very easy to work with and look forward to using her again in the future for baby and family photos! And if you brides are thinking about a Boudoir session, she is great and makes you feel very comfortable:)

    What a joy it was to work with Courtney! The most important criteria, for us, when booking a photographer was that they would deliver beautiful photographs that reminded us of how we felt on our special day. In that, Courtney delivered above and beyond! We also wanted someone that we would be comfortable with on such a happy, but somewhat chaotic day. From the moment we met Courtney, we knew her calm and friendly demeanor would be just what we needed on our wedding day and we were right! Courtney's friendly attitude helped us stay excited and positive throughout the picture-taking process. I didn't even notice her (in the best way) at the ceremony and most of the reception, but the moments she captured were just perfect. The pictures she took captured all the special people, moments and, most importantly, the feeling of our special day. We really couldn't be happier with the process and the outcome of working with Courtney.

    Courtney was absolutely a rainbow dream. She truly made our night fantastic. She and Janet Howard ran all over our venue putting finishing touches on nearly everything and taking beautiful photographs.

    More than photographers, Courtney and Janet brought an amazing light to our special day. I'm so glad my wife and I asked her to join us.

    WOW! Just WOW! Courtney is AMAZING! She took photos for my engagement and wedding. Pictures turned out wonderful and they really captured my now husband and I's relationship and personalities. It was so easy to work with Courtney; she made it fun but kept everything on time. She is a professional. She is detailed to make sure that all the pictures you want on your special day are captured. The best part was that a lot of the details were ironed out before the wedding so when it came time for the day it was a breeze. I would recommend Courtney to anyone with a photographer need. All I can say is that she was a true trooper with the combination of our family and friends all in the same place, she was there to capture the laughing, dancing and smiling.

    We planed our wedding in 2 weeks as we eloped in Blue Ridge. We didnt know any vendors or what we really wanted, we just knew we wanted a great photographer. I contacted Courtney and kind of described what we were looking for. She was very understanding and extremely easy to work with. She asked us a couple of questions via email and then we met for the first tome the day of the wedding. From the moment I met her I loved her! She understood what I was looking for, what a relieve! She was fun and super flexible. She made me feel at ease and went the extra mile. She drove 2 hours to get to us, hiked 1 mile up the mountain to our ceremony stop, stopped along the way to take pics and then stayed for the wedding cake and first dance. She was such a pleasure to work with! I am so happy and lucky I got to have her for my special day! The pictures are AMAZING!!!

    I'm a very type A person, so naturally my own wedding caused a good deal of stress for me. I had to balance between my desire to control everything and my fear of becoming one of "those brides." Courtney was a dream to work with. I think she has a natural talent for reading the style preferences and personalities of not only couples but of the families and guests as well. She worked alongside my wedding planner to ensure the flow of the day was perfect, even helping me read my reception to know when to cut the cake, open the dance floor, etc. On top of all that, the pictures were awesome. I also had several members of my wedding party and family say that she was the most fun photographer they have ever worked with-I can definitely say that, and I've been a bridesmaid seven times! A lot of photographers get overwhelmed and snappy which upsets everyone. Courtney was so upbeat, it spread to all of us so we could all enjoy the day. I can't recommened her highly enough!!

    I think the best way to describe Courtney's is through the words of my wedding dj who also managed one of the top wedding bands in the southeast for many years. He said that in his countless years of work in the industry, that Courtney was the absolutely the hardest working photographer he has ever seen. Courtney truly worked with us throughout the entire process to make sure that every event of our big day was beautifully documented. Everyone who has seen our sneak-peek photos has commented on not only how stunning her work is but also how they felt like they were there just through seeing the pictures. Courtney strikes the perfect balance between being the consummate professional (thoroughly planning, keeping the timeline on track, working well with all of the different personalities) and a just being a fun, happy, easy-going person to work with. She made us so comfortable and that definitely comes through in our gorgeous pictures. My husband and I will treasure the moments that Courtney captured in that day for a lifetime!

    We had Courtney take pictures of 14 family members the day after Thanksgiving. She put everyone at ease, worked well with the 2 and 5 year old and took fantastic pictures. She is such a professional but so comfortable to work with her. Our family highly recommends her.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Courtney Goldman. She was so easy to work with, friendly, and fun! She added a great, fun energy to both our engagement session and wedding. Many family members commented on how great they thought she was.
    Our photos are so beautiful! I highly recommend Courtney Goldman for any of your photography needs!

    You really can't go wrong in using Courtney as your photographer for your wedding. I met Courtney at a bridal show in Athens, and the choice was easy from there. Looking at her website, you can see what a talented photographer she is, and that she has a knack for catching those special moments. Courtney was easy to communicate with from the beginning and always responded promptly to my emails. She clearly explained what she offers and was flexible in creating a package that was perfect for us. She took our engagement photos, and that was really a perfect opportunity to get to know her. And she loves dogs, that was a plus for us :)

    Courtney only added to our big day. She kept everybody on schedule (even with my gigantic family) and didn't waste any time. She captured all the highlights of our wedding, without distracting from them. I could go on and on about how great she is, but you just have to see for yourself! I'm so glad we went with Courtney- and you will be too. The only complaint I have is that Courtney took SO many amazing pictures, it is really hard to pick which ones to frame!

    If you are looking for a photographer who is professional, easy to work with, and who will make your day even more fun and memorable- you can't go wrong. Courtney will help make your memories last a lifetime!

    My fiance and I recently relocated to Atlanta, so my knowledge of wedding vendors is limited. I was, admittedly, nervous about selecting a photographer for our engagement photos, but after our experience with Courtney Goldman Photography, I cannot thank her enough for her wonderful work, professionalism, and promptness throughout the process. Not only do we LOVE our photos, but she made us feel very comfortable before and during the session. She responded to emails within 24 hours (if not hours), willingly answered all of my questions, suggested locations for the session, and provided helpful hints for outfits/make-up/etc. She is competitively-priced, and I found myself wanting to purchase every image! Thank you Courtney for giving us photos we will cherish forever!

    There are no words to express how thankful I am that Nolan and I chose Courtney as our photographer. She was so patient and calm throughout the entire event. Her expertise in coordinating the timeline with the other vendors was much appreciated. Most importantly, Nolan and I haven't stopped talking about how Courtney was there at our every move to photograph the best day of our lives.

    We could not have asked for a more fun and awesome photographer for all of our wedding events. From the special book for my husband to the engagement session to the actual wedding and post wedding party, Courtney was a joy to work with. I could always count on a very timely response for any question and the turnaround for our pictures was incredibly quick. She did a fantastic job of capturing all the special moments, and I can't stop oogling at all our pictures!

    Courtney is an absolute artist! I spent hours searching the internet for a photographer for my wedding. I came across her website, and emailed her to set up a consultation. When I met her in person, I fell in love with her personality; it didn't feel like a "business meeting", but rather like I was meeting a friend for coffee. She showed me all of the different package options, and I was so excited to book her for my March 2014 wedding. Courtney photographed my engagement session (where she traveled an hour to stand in the 100 degree Atlanta August heat), my boudoir session (what would have been an "awkward" moment turned into something comfortable and fun thanks to her), and my wedding. I had 200 guests at my wedding, and Courtney was non-stop. She photographed EVERYTHING, and was able to capture all of those special moments--even those with my 2 year old flower girls/ring bearers. Many of my friends commented on how hard she worked, how professional she was, and how she had a smile on her face the entire time. After the wedding, she sent me a sneak preview of our photos, in the form of a professional-quality video set to music, in addition to posting them on a social media site, per my request, so some of our friends could see. Although our ceremony was outside and the sun shining, every image was bright and professional, with no shadows or overly-bright photos. Each album that I received in the mail, and the disk of all of the images, was carefully packaged and included special instructions on how to preserve the photos so that they last as long as the memories do. Courtney isn't the cheapest photographer you can find, but she is extremely reasonable, especially considering the quality of work that she provides, and the passion that she puts in to capturing those special moments. I would recommend her for any form of professional photography session!

    Courtney was very willing to work with my husband and I with our photos and pricing.
    It is hard trying to fit in everything you want all in one big day, but Courtney was very helpful and the photos came out wonderful!
