I knew that Jocelyn + Justin’s wedding day was going to be amazing, but just how amazing… I had no idea! It surpassed every expectation I had and I’m just so thankful for this job – documenting love like theirs is an absolute honor and I count myself lucky to have been the one they chose to be there with them on their wedding day. Every part of their wedding day was pure perfection. The weather was gorgeous, we found some incredible locations during portrait time, the venue was incredible – it was my very first time shooting at The Cedar Room and let me just say that I could shooting EVERY wedding there! It’s stunning!!
We started their day with a sweet First Look in downtown Charleston before meeting up with their bridal party for group photos. Jocelyn + Justin’s bridal party was amazing and everyone was so nice… it felt like I was part of the family! Their ceremony was officiated by a family friend and it was honestly one of the most moving ceremonies I’ve ever witnessed. I was on the verge of tears as they recited their own vows to each other. Witnessing + documenting love as strong as theirs is the ultimate honor and makes me so excited to find that in my own life someday. It exists!!
After a seated dinner, we ventured to the rooftop at The Cedar Room just in time for the perfect sunset and it was AMAZING!! I loved spending this time with them and allowing them to take some time together before the party really got started. They even shared a second First Dance together on the rooftop… so sweet!! DJ Wade kept the dance floor packed all night and let me just say that Jocelyn + Justin know how to throw an incredible party! I am just so happy for them and so honored to have been there to document it all for them. Here are some of my favorites from Jocelyn + Justin’s beautiful summer celebration at The Cedar Room…

Hannah + Matt’s intimate brunch wedding at The Sanctuary on Kiawah was such a special celebration. If there are two things I LOVE, it’s an intimate wedding and brunch!

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.

Hilton Head is a special place to Abby + Greyson, as Abby’s parents live there and she’s been visiting the area for years.

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 […]
