When Callie told me that she wanted to do her bridal portraits out on Isle of Palms, at an incredible home that they would be renting for getting ready on the wedding day, I was so excited. Not only would we be able to create beautiful portraits of Callie – but I’d also get a sneak peek at the house where we’d be photographing the First Look and portraits on her actual wedding day. Callie’s fiance, Gates, works in property management here in Charleston and, luckily for us, one of his clients owns this beautiful home on IOP. We are so fortunate that we had access to this gorgeous property for both her bridal portraits and their wedding day – and on a beautiful spring evening, I met Callie + her mother here for their bridal portrait session.
Callie’s sweet Anne Barge ball gown was absolutely stunning and the bow on the back was the icing on the cake. I absolutely LOVE statement bows on wedding dresses. They are always such a beautiful detail that gives a dress a little something extra, without being over the top. Bows will always be in style, so I think they are a timeless addition to any wedding dress! Branch Design created a stunning tropical-inspired bouquet of white lilies, roses, lisianthus, and palm leaves. It was really a work of art! On the night of her bridal portraits, we had the most beautiful sunset with warm, glowy light. As I was shooting, it kind of felt like we were in California with the palm trees and warm glow. It was pretty epic.
Callie and Gates were married last spring at the Country Club of Charleston and I’m so excited to share these bridal portraits with the world. So here are some of my favorites from Callie’s bridal portraits on Isle of Palms…

I met up with Nicole + Thomas last summer for their engagement session out on Folly Beach. They found me through another one of my couples, whose wedding I photographed at Sea Pines last winter, and I was thrilled when they asked me to photograph their Charleston wedding! I loved spending the evening with them […]
Dawn + Joey’s classic coastal summer wedding at Dataw Island Club was truly one that I will never forget.

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!
