When Monica told me that her wedding vision was inspired by the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic, I knew immediately that this was going to be a unique wedding day. Lowcountry, chic, unique, and timeless were all words that resonated with the couple – and their planner, Ashley, created an incredible design that was absolute perfection. Even with a last minute venue change, Monica + Austin’s day couldn’t have been better. They always start their day together drinking coffee, so they asked if I’d be willing to come early for a mini photo shoot to document their last coffee date before getting married. I absolutely LOVED this!! It was so sweet to create some beautiful photos of them before their big day got under way.
With 3 bridesmaids and 3 groomsmen standing by their side, Monica + Austin said “I do” in a beautiful waterfront ceremony officiated by Austin’s brother. We had the BEST light for portraits at Palmetto Bluff after the ceremony – and then we headed over to their reception a few miles down the road. Now let’s talk about the florals… oh my goodness, THE FLORALS!! Em Creative is just so incredibly talented. They completely transformed the event space with their floral installation. It was a showstopper.
Monica + Austin spent the evening celebrating with friends + family, dancing the night away. At the end of the night, they exited through a tunnel of sparklers – the perfect ending to their fairy tale day. Congratulations Monica + Austin… and thank you for allowing me to be a part of this amazing day!

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 […]

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 […]
