I first met Carrie a few years ago when she interned with a local wedding planner. We stayed in touch through the years and when she got engaged to her longtime love, she asked me if I would photograph her wedding. It’s always such an honor when someone in the wedding industry asks you to be a part of their own wedding day! Although a date change made it impossible for me to be there on her actual wedding day, I had the honor of photographing her bridal portraits at Lowndes Grove before the big day. We had such a great time together and I absolutely loved how everything came together!
For her bridal portrait session, Carrie crafted her own bouquet filled with yellow, white + green blooms. I loved the pop of color! She wore a custom Robert Bullock brocade ball gown, emerald green shoes, and tied an emerald green ribbon around her bouquet in honor of her Dad’s birthday, which was 3 days after this session. What I really loved about this session is that Carrie was so laid back and really leaned into the process. Despite crazy wind, we went out to the dock and those are some of my favorite images ever! I love how the wind played with her dress and her curly hair! So fun!
Although I wasn’t able to photograph her wedding in the end, I’m so glad I was able to do her bridal portraits at Lowndes Grove. We had such a blast together! Here are some of my favorite images from Carrie’s beautiful bridal portrait session…

From the very first time I spoke with Caroline, I knew that her wedding day was going to be so special.

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 […]
