I’m pretty sure Kira was the only bride in Charleston on her wedding day that was hoping for the skies to stay cloudy and overcast! Although it’s a photographer’s dream for those conditions, brides usually want sun… and lots of it. Not Kira. She loves the moody, romantic feel of an overcast day – and for the most part, she got her wish! Although the sun did peek out a few times later in the afternoon, we were blessed with great weather for their wedding day.
The day started with a sweet First Look in Flowerdale garden, followed by portraits around the stunning grounds of Magnolia Plantation. We met up with their fabulous bridal party on the avenue of oaks, then headed to the Carriage House for their ceremony under a beautiful oak tree. The reception space looked INCREDIBLE, thanks to the ladies of Pure Luxe Bride. It was such a romantic + warm design… I loved it!! Guests enjoyed a variety of lowcountry-inspired cuisine, then danced the night away before Kira + Brent exited through a tunnel of glow sticks. Here are some of my favorites from Kira + Brent’s romantic glam wedding at Magnolia Plantation…

From the moment I first spoke to Sandra, I knew her wedding day was going to be something special. She had a clear vision of a day filled with special details, personalized moments, and a celebration of love that was truly unique to her and Matt’s love story. Being in the fashion world, I knew […]
There’s something undeniably magical about Charleston SC. The cobblestone alleyways, the historic charm, and the gentle breeze off of the water – which creates the perfect setting for love to flourish. When I had the opportunity to capture Hannah + Ashley’s engagement session on an overcast day this past September, I knew it would be […]
Hilton Head is a special place to Abby + Greyson, as Abby’s parents live there and she’s been visiting the area for years. I always love how the magic of Hilton Head and Sea Pines brings families together on such an incredible day. This September wedding day at Sea Pines started off with torrential rain […]
Somehow, it’s already February and I just realized that I haven’t posted my year-end recap from 2024. Yikes! Better late than never, I suppose! If I’m being totally honest and transparent, 2024 was a difficult year for me + my mindset. Self-doubt, not knowing where I “fit in”, feeling jealousy of other photographers, and not […]
