On the same weekend last year, I photographed Mallory’s sister, Stacy’s, wedding at the Gadsden House – and I knew an engagement was on the horizon for Mallory. One year later, it was Mallory’s turn to say “I do!” to the love of her life, Brian, at the William Aiken House and I am SOOOOO grateful to have been the one they chose to document such an important day! Now that both Verner daughters are officially married, I’m thinking a yearly anniversary party needs to happen so that we can all come together again to celebrate this amazing family!
Mallory + Brian’s wedding day was incredible. It started with a sweet First Look and some bride + groom portraits, then we jumped right into bridal party photos since rain was threatening the area all day long. Lucky for us, it didn’t rain AT ALL… except about 10 minutes before the end of the reception, when the skies opened up and it POURED rain during their sparkler exit!! It was definitely a fun way to end the evening! Mallory + Brian chose an amazing color palette for their big day and the florals by Roadside Blooms were perfection!! Did you happen to see Mallory’s bouquet?!? HOLY MOLY!! It was a beast and oh-so-pretty. Seriously, one of my all-time favorite bouquets!! Sage green accents were the perfect pop of summer color and I love how they incorporated gemstones + geometric elements into their wedding decor… a sweet nod to Brian’s love of collecting fossils + rocks. It was the perfect summer celebration, for sure! Here are some of my favorites from Mallory + Brian’s garden party inspired summer wedding at the William Aiken House in downtown Charleston…

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.

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 […]
