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 the day to be relaxed and focused on spending time with their family + friends. She envisioned her bridesmaids to wear bright pink and dreamed of incredible florals throughout the wedding design. It was like she was describing my own dream wedding. Talk about a DREAM client!! I am so thankful she chose me to document this incredible day for her + Patrick because it really was a dream come true.
Their day started with a sweet First Look, followed by portraits around the Rhett House Inn in downtown Beaufort. Group photos with their wedding party + family followed, then everyone was tucked away before the start of the ceremony. Elizabeth + Patrick said “I do!” at St Helena’s Parish, her family’s church – and then everyone headed out to Kate Gleason Park for the reception.
Guests enjoyed cocktails overlooking the water before stations opened – featuring lowcountry fare and a gigantic raw bar. Once the party got underway, Elizabeth + Patrick never left the dance floor – they were by each others’ side the entire evening, dancing + celebrating with their best friends and incredible family. At the end of the night, they exited through a tunnel of cold sparks and hopped into a family friend’s vintage convertible. Such an incredible day! Here are just some of my favorites from Elizabeth + Patrick’s beautiful Beaufort SC wedding…

Lizzie + Nick’s colorful Charleston wedding at the William Aiken House was definitely one for the books. I absolutely loved spending this beautiful spring day with them, their families, and closest friends.

I was introduced to Cait through former DCW bride and fellow photographer, Lindsay, who had worked with Cait previously, but was not available for her wedding day. I’m SO thankful that Lindsay connected us because I immediately fell in love with Cait and her vision for a sweet, intimate wedding celebration in Charleston. Caitlin’s parents […]
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.

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 […]
