San Diego residents Brittany + Brian chose Charleston for their intimate destination wedding and it was the PERFECT place for them to celebrate with their closest family + friends. The day started at one of my favorite boutique hotels in town, Zero George, where Brittany + Brian shared their First Look and their best friends joined in for bridal party photos before heading out to Magnolia Plantation. The ladies of Pure Luxe Bride did an AMAZING job and the florals by Branch Studio were impeccable. Brittany stunned in her dramatic Essense of Australia gown and I love how Brian wore a plaid shirt instead of a traditional solid color. They definitely infused some of their fun, quirky, and cool California style into the wedding day and I was in heaven!!
They said “I do!” in the garden next to the main house at Magnolia Plantation, then celebrated with a three course meal and dancing under the stars with their closest family + friends. Wed on Canvas was on hand to do a live wedding painting of the celebration and before leaving for the evening, Brittany + Brian ran through a tunnel of sparklers held by all of their guests. It was a magical day and I’m so glad to have met Brittany + Brian throughout this process! Here are some of my favorites from Brittany + Brian’s beautiful, intimate Magnolia Plantation wedding…

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 […]
2023 was definitely one of the best years yet for my business. I had the honor of working with so many fabulous couples, in so many fabulous locations… including Spain, Italy, and Hawaii! I feel extremely lucky that I was able to experience such a tremendous year of growth and travel. Here are some of […]
This colorful winter wedding at Sea Pines Resort was the perfect way to start 2024. On one of the coldest days of the year, Caitlyn + Mark said “I do!” on the iconic 18th lawn at Harbourtown Links, overlooking the Calibogue Sound. Surrounded by their closest family + friends, their day was everything that Caitlyn […]
