This wedding is a special one and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better start to 2021! Kicking off a new year with Kiersten + Kyle was EXACTLY what I needed after a crazy, stressful 2020. Even though the radar looked ominous most of the day, Mother Nature really did us a solid and graced us with GORGEOUS overcast skies and only a few rain showers here and there.
Weather aside, Kiersten + Kyle’s wedding day was everything I knew it would be… beautiful, elegant, full of joy + laughter, and an absolutely EPIC celebration of their love! They decided not to do a First Look and I absolutely loved Kyle’s reaction when Kiersten came down the aisle with her dad. Kiersten + Kyle said “I do!” in a beautiful ceremony and the rain stopped just in time for their bridal party photos and portrait time! The light was SO GOOD and I am obsessed with all of their photos overlooking the Stono River! The celebration kicked into high gear and let me just tell you… these guys know how to party! I always love photographing the dance floor and this was one of my favorite dance parties to date!
I couldn’t imagine ringing in the New Year with any other couple and I am truly blessed to have such amazing clients. If this wedding is any indication of how 2021 is going to go, I am SO EXCITED to see what the rest of the year brings. So without further ado, here are some of my favorites from Kiersten + Kyle’s stunning winter wedding at The Island House…

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 […]
