I just have to say that I have the BEST couples!! Every weekend, I have the honor of working with such wonderful couples and their amazing families… and I’m so thankful for every single person that this business has brought to me. Cara + Aaron are no exception. I absolutely ADORE these two and I’m so humbled to have been invited to document this incredible day for them. From the moment I arrived on-site, everyone was so warm + welcoming… it felt like I was truly part of the family! Cara, Aaron, their friends, and family were so gracious and easy to work with… I am so lucky to serve such incredible people on such a momentous day!
Cara + Aaron’s day started with a sweet First Look in Ansonborough. Cara looked INCREDIBLE in her custom Matthew Christopher gown, which is officially one of my favorite dresses EVER!! I mean, my jaw dropped when I saw it for the first time. I feel like the pictures don’t even do it justice!! We were joined by their amazing bridal party for group photos and, of course, we had to make sure to get some photos with their vintage bus!! So cool!!
Before we knew it, Cara + Aaron were saying “I do!” in front of their closest family + friends in a beautiful garden ceremony. Afterwards, Cara did a quick hair change while Aaron changed into his miniature pineapple boutonniere – which was one of my favorite details of the day!! Cara + Aaron danced the night away with their family + friends while DJ Stephen Darby kept the dance floor packed, as usual. At the end of the night, Cara + Aaron exited through a tunnel of sparklers… the perfect ending to an incredible day. Here are some of my favorites from Cara + Aaron’s gorgeous Gadsden House wedding in Charleston, SC…

Hilton Head is a special place to Abby + Greyson, as Abby’s parents live there and she’s been visiting the area for years. I always love how the magic of Hilton Head and Sea Pines brings families together on such an incredible day. This September wedding day at Sea Pines started off with torrential rain […]
Somehow, it’s already February and I just realized that I haven’t posted my year-end recap from 2024. Yikes! Better late than never, I suppose! If I’m being totally honest and transparent, 2024 was a difficult year for me + my mindset. Self-doubt, not knowing where I “fit in”, feeling jealousy of other photographers, and not […]
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. Every single detail was so thoughtfully curated and it was such an honor to be a part of their full wedding weekend. From their cozy rehearsal dinner the night before, to their epic celebration on the […]
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 […]
