Kiera + Brian’s wedding day was absolutely incredible. From beginning to end, it was such a special day and I am so honored to have been a part of it. Last fall, I visited them in their hometown of NYC for their engagement session – that, in and of itself, was a dream come true – and it felt like no time had passed when I saw them both on their wedding day. I just adore Kiera + Brian. They are two of the nicest people and I’m so glad that they were able to have the wedding day of their dreams in beautiful Charleston.
After a beautiful intimate ceremony at nearby St Luke’s Chapel, which was officiated by Brian’s father, everyone headed out to beautiful Lowndes Grove Plantation for the reception. The ladies of Pure Luxe Bride brought Kiera’s vision of a classic, elegant garden-inspired celebration to life with gorgeous florals by Branch Design Studio, plenty of candles, gorgeous vintage plates, and one of my favorite wedding cakes EVER!! I loved their color palette of light blue paired with pops of bright pink, orange, peach, blush and cream. It was absolutely perfect!
Stephen of Darby Events kept the dance floor packed all night and the newlyweds exited through a glowing tunnel of sparklers at the end of the night. Here are some of my favorites from Kiera + Brian’s gorgeous Lowndes Grove wedding…

I met up with Dawn + Joey in February for their beautiful engagement session here in Charleston. They brought their two beautiful pups, Willow + Cricket, along for part of the session… and boy, did they have a blast at Hampton Park?!? I am totally OBSESSED with the photos of them walking together (below) because […]
Audra + Rahul’s beautiful traditional Indian wedding in Charleston was definitely one for the books. I absolutely LOVE everything about South Asian/Indian weddings… the colors, the attire, the music, the food, the traditions, the rituals, the family element, the dancing. There really is nothing like it and if I could specialize in shooting only South […]
From the very first time I spoke with Martha Camille, I knew that her Boone Hall wedding was going to be EPIC. I also knew that she was going to be a dream client for me – and she absolutely was! I love all of my couples, but it’s so extra special when someone has […]
When Martha Camille told me that she wanted to recreate her mother’s studio bridal portraits, I’ll admit… I was a little hesitant. I’ve never done studio bridal portraits before and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to bring her vision to life. As a creative, I love doing things that are outside of […]
2023 was definitely one of the best years yet for my business. I had the honor of working with so many fabulous couples, in so many fabulous locations… including Spain, Italy, and Hawaii! I feel extremely lucky that I was able to experience such a tremendous year of growth and travel. Here are some of […]
This colorful winter wedding at Sea Pines Resort was the perfect way to start 2024. On one of the coldest days of the year, Caitlyn + Mark said “I do!” on the iconic 18th lawn at Harbourtown Links, overlooking the Calibogue Sound. Surrounded by their closest family + friends, their day was everything that Caitlyn […]
