Maryland residents Suzanne and Joel fell in love with Magnolia Plantation over the internet. After seeing photos online, they knew it was the PERFECT spot for them to elope – even though they’d never even been to Charleston before, let alone Magnolia Plantation! But hey – I can’t blame them. Magnolia Plantation is absolutely beautiful and it WAS the perfect spot for their intimate and romantic elopement.
Suzanne + Joel’s wedding day started with a beautiful First Look and some portraits, followed by their amazing ceremony under the oaks. It was pure perfection. After their ceremony, we spent some more time exploring the plantation together – Suzanne + Joel even climbed into a tree that was perched above the Ashley River. Talk about EPIC!!! The best part of the day? Mother Nature timed things PERFECTLY for once. Although rain threatened the area, the rainy skies cleared mid-morning and remained dry up until the very last shot… literally! As we made our way back to the main house after we finished up shooting, it started to drizzle for the first time all afternoon. So thank you, Mother Nature, for keeping things dry for Suzanne + Joel’s beautiful wedding day!
Congratulations Suzanne + Joel! I loved being a part of your special day. Without further ado, here are some of my favorites from this fabulous Magnolia Plantation elopement…

When Katie first told me about her wedding day vision – a classic brunch wedding overlooking the water at the iconic Ocean Course on Kiawah Island – I knew it was going to be such a beautiful celebration. There really isn’t anything like a Kiawah Island wedding! A custom Modern Trousseau ball gown, topped with […]
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 […]
