Pamela + Jess’ wedding day was incredible, albeit a little wet. Mother Nature decided to throw us a curve ball when it started POURING right after Pamela + Jess’ First Look. We literally had to run onto someone’s front porch to stay dry since we had no idea it was coming!! Despite that fun surprise, the rest of the day was actually pretty darn amazing. Pamela + Jess were surrounded by so much love + support on their wedding day – it was beautiful to see. On an already stressful day, made even more stressful by the unexpected weather, these two definitely weathered their first storm together (pun INTENDED) with grace.
Their day started with a sweet First Look and Jess’ reaction to seeing his bride for the first time was everything a bride could hope for. We started portraits with Pamela + Jess and we got about 5 poses in before the skies opened up. Luckily, we were able to jump onto someone’s front porch to keep dry… but wow. That was a surprise! After 10 minutes or so, the rain let up enough for us to get Pamela + Jess back to the lighthouse, where we joined their bridal party. As the rain continued to fall, our only option was to have everyone stay on the front porch for photos as we stood out in the rain… thanks to Kelly, my awesome assistant, for holding an umbrella over my head!!
The skies cleared for their ceremony, so we started 15 minutes earlier than scheduled to outrun more rain that was moving into the area. Pamela + Jess had their dream ceremony, outdoors overlooking the water. Thank you, Mother Nature, for gifting this wonderful couple with a few minutes of dryness!! I know this was so important to them and I’m thrilled that they were able to get married outside!! After the ceremony, everyone headed to the clubhouse for the reception. Guests dined on amazing food and the dance floor was PACKED all night!! At the end of the evening, Pamela + Jess exited through a tunnel of sparklers… the perfect ending to an exciting wedding day. Here are some of my favorites from Pamela + Jess’ rainy Haig Point wedding…

Some wedding days are beautiful. Others are joyful. And then there are the rare ones that feel like joy in motion – the kind you can feel in every frame, every laugh, every stolen glance. Rachel and Mac’s wedding at Magnolia Plantation was exactly that. From the very beginning, they chose to experience the day […]
For Jennie, Sea Pines has never been just a wedding destination – it’s home. Long before this day, she spent summers working in Harbour Town, learning its rhythms, its light, and the way life slows down just enough on Hilton Head Island. So when it came time to choose where she and Greg would get […]
Some places hold more than memories – they hold generations. For Madeline + Porter, Hilton Head wasn’t just a beautiful setting for their wedding day at Sea Pines Resort; it was part of their family story long before they ever said “I do.” With both of their parents having been married on Hilton Head and […]
Nine years of growing up together gives you a certain steadiness – the kind that doesn’t panic when plans unravel. That quiet confidence defined Walker + Addi Grace’s wedding day at Boone Hall, even as steady rain reshaped nearly every detail of their celebration. High school sweethearts who met as freshmen and now call Columbia, […]
Some wedding days unfold exactly as planned. Others ask you to let go, adapt, and trust what matters most. Lauren and Billy’s wedding at Sea Pines Resort in Hilton Head was very much the latter – and in many ways, that’s what made it so meaningful. Elegant, sophisticated, and deeply classic in style, their day […]
Mayzie + Hyrum’s intimate celebration at the Ocean Course on Kiawah gave me allllll of the Ralph Lauren vibes. When I look back at these images, I’m instantly transported – there’s something so Americana and nostalgic about the day, in the best possible way. Maybe it’s the classic blue hydrangea bouquet, effortlessly timeless. Maybe it’s […]
