Erin + Eric traveled from their home in Wisconsin, along with their closest family + friends, to say “I do!” in the lowcountry. They chose Sea Pines since her aunt lives on nearby Daufuskie Island and they really wanted to get married somewhere warm + laid back. They couldn’t have made a better choice! Their first born pup, Decker, and their 18 month old son, Lucas, were the real VIPs of the day and it was so amazing to watch them all come together in marriage.
Although rain threatened the area all morning, we were able to do all of their photos outdoors before the skies opened. Thank you, Mother Nature!! We started their day with a beautiful First Look in the local cemetery. Yup, that’s right… a cemetery! Erin + Eric totally trusted my vision and didn’t bat an eye when I told them where I wanted to do their First Look… and it turned out beautifully. You’d never even know! I am so thankful for clients who trust me, even when my plans include cemeteries on their wedding day!!
Erin mentioned that the bright pink azaleas were her favorite, so naturally we had to find some for their portraits. It was another odd-ball location choice – a random driveway – but it totally worked. I felt really creative and inspired with their portraits… and they are some of my new favorites because of it!!
Rain started shortly after family photos, so their ceremony was moved indoors… but it was so perfect. Decker fell asleep on Erin’s train during the ceremony and Lucas started crying during their vows. Everyone was laughing and it was a memorable ceremony for sure!!
Their reception took place at the Atlantic Room and they danced the night away with their friends + family after a delicious seated meal. Both Erin + Eric had smiles on their faces all evening and it was clear just how loved they are. It was an incredible day and I’m honored to have been a part of it all. Here are some of my favorites from Erin + Eric’s spring wedding at Sea Pines Resort…

I love it when my couples opt to do an engagement session with me before their wedding day. While it’s by no means necessary, I always really love getting to know my couples before the wedding day – and I also love being able to take some epic photos of them during this special time […]
From the very first time I spoke with Caroline, I knew that her wedding day was going to be so special. With just their immediate families in attendance, Caroline + Kevin’s day was centered around family – and they wanted to begin their life together surrounded by the people who love them the most in […]
Lauren + Matt are the embodiment of pure, unfiltered JOY. The way these two look at each other. The way they smile from ear to ear when they are next to each other. Absolute, contagious, electric joy. I truly feel so lucky to have been in the presence of their love. It’s a love that […]
In May, I headed to Atlanta for Lynsey + Tyler’s romantic wedding at Summerour Studio. I knew their wedding weekend was going to be special and it absolutely was! Their celebration started with a beautiful rehearsal dinner at the Peachtree Club, overlooking the city. It was so great to meet all of their VIP’s the […]
I first met Tori back in 2016 when I photographed her older sister Kiersten’s wedding. Little did I know then that I would go on to photograph their sister Chelsea’s wedding in 2021 – and finally Tori’s wedding in 2024! Legacy clients are so special and the Stolen family means so much to me. They […]
When I first spoke to Elizabeth last June, I knew that her wedding day was going to be something special. She spoke about getting married in her hometown of Beaufort SC – first, a sweet ceremony at her local church, followed by a tented waterfront celebration filled with bright colors and palm accents. Elizabeth wanted […]
