I’ve dreamed of shooting a wedding at Palmetto Bluff for years, so when Betsy + Nick hired me to photograph their wedding there this spring, I was so excited!! I absolutely LOVE Palmetto Bluff… it’s such a gorgeous property and the absolute perfect lowcountry setting for a wedding day. Betsy + Nick’s wedding day started off with a sweet First Look, followed by portraits around the property before meeting up with their friends and family for group photos. Betsy + Nick opted to include only their siblings in their wedding party, with Betsy’s brother + sister standing by her side and Nick’s sister serving as Woman of Honor. I love how intimate their entire celebration was… it was such a very personal day that focused on and celebrated all of the important relationships in their lives.
Betsy + Nick said “I do!” in a beautiful ceremony in the cutest little chapel on the square at Palmetto Bluff. Afterwards, they joined their guests for cocktail hour before heading inside the celebrate. After a delicious seated meal, guests lounged on the wrap around porch and danced the night away on the dance floor. At the end of the night, Betsy + Nick exited through a tunnel of sparklers… the perfect ending to an incredible day. Here are some of my favorites from Betsy + Nick’s intimate wedding at Palmetto Bluff…

When Katie first told me about her wedding day vision – a classic brunch wedding overlooking the water at the iconic Ocean Course on Kiawah Island – I knew it was going to be such a beautiful celebration. There really isn’t anything like a Kiawah Island wedding! A custom Modern Trousseau ball gown, topped with […]
I met up with Dawn + Joey in February for their beautiful engagement session here in Charleston. They brought their two beautiful pups, Willow + Cricket, along for part of the session… and boy, did they have a blast at Hampton Park?!? I am totally OBSESSED with the photos of them walking together (below) because […]
Audra + Rahul’s beautiful traditional Indian wedding in Charleston was definitely one for the books. I absolutely LOVE everything about South Asian/Indian weddings… the colors, the attire, the music, the food, the traditions, the rituals, the family element, the dancing. There really is nothing like it and if I could specialize in shooting only South […]
From the very first time I spoke with Martha Camille, I knew that her Boone Hall wedding was going to be EPIC. I also knew that she was going to be a dream client for me – and she absolutely was! I love all of my couples, but it’s so extra special when someone has […]
When Martha Camille told me that she wanted to recreate her mother’s studio bridal portraits, I’ll admit… I was a little hesitant. I’ve never done studio bridal portraits before and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to bring her vision to life. As a creative, I love doing things that are outside of […]
