Where history and natural beauty frame your Story







Photo Venue

Here in the Northeast Georgia mountains, we've created a sanctuary where natural light meets historic charm.
At Mountain Laurel Farm, we honor the photographer's craft by providing spaces that capture enchanting moments - from morning light streaming through century-old windows to golden hour across our mountain meadows.

Holiday Mini Sessions 2024

Last-minute availability for our professionally styled holiday settings

Step into a thoughtfully curated holiday experience where historic charm meets festive elegance. Our winter collection features professionally styled vignettes that flow from the warmth of our century-old farmhouse, with its glowing Christmas tree and emerald velvet accents, to the whimsy of Santa's mailroom in our historic barn. Each setting has been artfully decorated to tell your unique story - whether capturing professional portraits or creating cherished family memories. From twinkling lights and fresh greenery to mountain views and seasonal touches, every detail invites you to pause and savor the magic of the season. With both indoor and outdoor options, complimentary hot chocolate, and the natural beauty of our mountain setting, your session promises to be as memorable as the portraits themselves.
