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…

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 […]
