Beautiful bride Kate is an interior designer and she knew she wanted a clean, modern vibe for her wedding with a soft color palette. Inspired by her love of bamboo, Lauren of ELM Events designed a beautiful, unique reception space that was anything but ordinary. From the beautiful lounge, to the use of modern ghost chairs + stools, to the amazing hanging plant chandeliers courtesy of Branch Design Studio… it was such a perfect blend of simple, modern + organic design that fit Kate + Mike’s aesthetic and personality to a T!
Kate + Mike’s wedding day started downtown with a sweet First Look, followed by portraits with their beloved French Bulldog, Seamus, and their bridal party. They said “I do!” at a traditional Catholic ceremony at Kate’s grandmother’s church in West Ashley, then headed over to the Rice Mill to celebrate with their closest family + friends. Despite an epic rain storm that blew through the area during their ceremony, it was still such an amazing day filled with smiles + laughter. Enjoy some of my favorites from Kate + Mike’s modern Charleston wedding at the Rice Mill…

I was introduced to Cait through former DCW bride and fellow photographer, Lindsay, who had worked with Cait previously, but was not available for her wedding day. I’m SO thankful that Lindsay connected us because I immediately fell in love with Cait and her vision for a sweet, intimate wedding celebration in Charleston. Caitlin’s parents […]
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 […]
