Atlanta, GA Wedding Photographer
I am here to document the messy, the fun, the real, and everything in between. It's your story and I want to tell it. Anyone can take photos, but not everyone captures a story intentionally like yours and makes you feel everything all over again. Even when you’re constantly growing, loving differently, you can feel the the warmth and love of where you were in each season of life.

I'm Bella Neal
After being in the wedding industry for 7 years + watching my own growth as a person... I went through so many phases in my life where I was engaged, married, pregnant and now a momma to 2 beautiful babies. Through it all, I have seen the magic in the love you experience for the people in your life + yourself. I strive to document that so when you're old + wrinkly you get to look back and remember who you are today and how you felt in these seasons.

Bella is absolutely AMAZING!!! My husband and I hired her for our engagement shoot & as our wedding photographer and she killed it!! She is such an angel & amazing to work with. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and does everything she can to make your photos perfect and the way you want them. Bella was helpful throughout the wedding planning process and answered any questions I had! She is extremely talented and goes above & beyond for her clients! Couldn’t ask for a better wedding photographer.
She truly cares about her clients and does everything she can to make your photos perfect.

Let me start by saying I am very very particular and Bella is the best. She is one of the rare photographers who has colorful photos, I find so many photographers filtering photos to the point of turning the sky completely white. She is not only an extremely talented photographer, but the sweetest & most genuine & creative person who is so fun to work with, she makes it SO easy. I am not a natural behind the camera and she tells you exactly what to do and every pic turns out so cute. She has a vision and it always comes to life!! She is truly an artist, we are so happy we chose her to do our wedding, we are obsessed with our pics!!! We loveeeee moonstone!!!

Bella was an absolute dream to work with! From our engagement session, bridal session and our wedding day - you could
tell Bella truly cared about getting to know us and bringing our vision to life. We had never done a professional photo session prior to our engagement session and Bella and made us feel like we had been friends for years! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and even on our wedding day, it felt like I had another girlfriend with me throughout the day. Bella was truly a blessing to us and captured our most important day so beautifully! We have received so many compliments on our wedding photos and it’s all because of Bella and her team! We will continue to have Bella photograph our big life milestones for years to come!
Bella made us feel like we had been friends for years!

Kenna and Patrick spent an afternoon running around an Atlanta Coffee shop for their session in the Winter! The most perfect time to enjoy a coffee with trench coats, your fave jeans + your boo thang.
Westside Ironworks at Brash Coffee in Atlanta, GA was the location for this photo session. Not only did we get to have fun and get creative with the cutest micro coffee shop, but also got to walk around and get creative with different building backdrops, city views, and restaurants with cute seating that made you feel like you were in a cozy corner of Paris.
Being able to get creative for engagement or anniversary sessions is a huge thing I advocate for with my couples. Whether it’s the place you met, had your first date, or somewhere you love going for weekly dates.. Make your session uniquely YOU!! There’s nothing better than making your photos reflect you two as people and steering the direction from traditional locations and outfits, to comfy fun ones.
After we enjoyed walking around Westside Ironworks, we headed up the parking deck to the rooftop! It wasn’t the best city view, but it was a fun change of scenery where they got to run around, do fun piggyback rides and get those windy shots with the hair to make it dreamy!!
I had the best time running around with these two cuties and can’t wait to start incorporating more coffee shops in my sessions!
You can check out more photos from their session HERE 🙂
Xx,
Bella

Kelsey and Jacob’s wedding in GA at Vinewood Stables was stunning, but how their love story started is one I’ll never forget! These love birds actually met as two ER nurses working side by side during the pandemic and fell in love. Kelsey had made a TikTok on their engagement that shows the proposal and it went viral!
Jacob literally hopped off of a helicopter on their ER heli pad, got down on one knee, and proposed! Talk about a fairytale! Kelsey expected to go to the helipad with a stretcher to pick up a patient, but instead, she received a surprise proposal!
The Young’s engagement drew so much attention that it was actually featured in PEOPLE magazine, then when they got married, their wedding day was again featured in PEOPLE, which you can check out here! It was so amazing to have the honor of capturing The Young’s wedding day and getting to know them more! They are truly so much fun, easygoing, and the most caring people.
Kelsey + Jacob’s Special Day | A Wedding in GA
Their wedding style was so gorgeous and I loved the classy and victorian theme! Their entire wedding in GA was so open and homey feeling. All of their family and friends were there to support and love on them! Their love for family is so evident, and you can tell because they were surrounded by so much love!
I just adore how in love they are with each other. When you look at their wedding photos and the way they look at each other, you can truly tell what an amazing connection they have. From two ER nurses saving lives during the pandemic to a viral engagement on Tiktok and magazine features, these two and their story are what fairy tales are made of, and I am OBSESSED!
