Earlier this week I featured his Walking Dead Engagement Shoot shot at the show’s production location in Grantville, Georgia. Today, I have another beautiful (yes, I said beautiful) zombie themed shoot from photographer William Hogan owner of Famous William Company. Collaborating with The Funky Shack an art studio that caters to designing weddings, and weirdly, has a connection to the popular AMC zombie series. Scenes of Season 3 of The Walking Dead were filmed in their studio with zombies being decapitated right in the space where they hold design consultations with their brides!

The Zombie Wedding Bash is more than just a fun zombie themed shoot. It’s a charity event benefiting Camp Southern Ground a camp created by Zac Brown for children of all needs. “Not only did The Funky Shack get involved with this awesome charity,” says William, “they got us involved too and had us there with the photo booth at their Zombie Bash!!”

The Walking Dead fans Jeremy and Heidi’s timing couldn’t have been better. Not only is it the perfect time of year for a zombie themed engagement shoot, but their downtown Grantville, Georgia location was recently made over to accommodate AMC’s The Walking Dead production. While shooting season 3 of the popular zombie apocalypse series most of downtown was blocked off with 24 hour police security while production began transforming the signs and building fronts into the “King County” set seen in the show.

Janette + Brian’s DIY Halloween Wedding

Even in death love lives on for couple Janette and Brian who had a frightfully, fun Halloween wedding. Half of the dynamic duo that runs the fangirl blog Le Geek Janette says, “I can say with all certainty that my wedding day was the best day of my life…I’ve never been a traditional gal so logically I wasn’t looking to plan a traditional wedding.” With over a year to plan, once the date was set the couple sent out their zombie themed Save the Dates and home-made invites to prepare guests well in advance for what was in store for them.

Janette and Brian decided on keeping the ceremony relatively traditional opting for a chapel located at a cemetery to still tie into their theme. Janette wore a white wedding dress and veil with a cobwebbed red rose bouquet the groom a grey suit and matching Halloween themed boutonniere. Being the geeks that they are, after the two were pronounced husband and wife the couple made their exit down the aisle to the theme from Star Wars. Always a great way to end a wedding ceremony.

After the ceremony guests were given time to get ready for the couple’s costumed reception! “All in all, I’m very lucky to have married such an awesome guy that would even be willing to go with a crazy idea like a Halloween wedding. We make a great geeky team.”
