Sometimes Mother Nature surprises us in the best way possible and that was certainly the case on Cara + Jon’s wedding day. We were blessed with 80 degree temperatures and low humidity, which is totally unheard of for June in Charleston! The cool temperatures made for an even more enjoyable day as Cara + Jon said “I do!” in front of all of their family + friends.
The day started with a beautiful First Look just outside the gates at the Thomas Bennett House in downtown Charleston. Jon was speechless as he laid eyes on Cara for the very first time… such a sweet moment! After some portraits together around the property, their bridal party joined them for group photos before guests began to arrive for their gorgeous garden ceremony. Cara + Jon shared their vows in a sweet ceremony that was officiated by Jon’s best friend, Tyler. After the ceremony, guests mingled on the porch and lawn while sipping on cocktails before heading under the tent for the reception. Everything looked amazing with blush, mint and ivory accents – the perfect color palette for their garden wedding! Here are some of my favorites from Cara + Jon’s gorgeous Charleston wedding at the Thomas Bennett House…

Ashley + Kyle’s wedding day was, in a word, magic. These two share such a beautiful love and I am beyond thankful to have witnessed it first hand. Ashley is pure JOY in human form and she absolutely glows in Kyle’s presence. The way they look at each other and care for each other is […]
From the moment I first spoke to Sandra, I knew her wedding day was going to be something special. She had a clear vision of a day filled with special details, personalized moments, and a celebration of love that was truly unique to her and Matt’s love story. Being in the fashion world, I knew […]
There’s something undeniably magical about Charleston SC. The cobblestone alleyways, the historic charm, and the gentle breeze off of the water – which creates the perfect setting for love to flourish. When I had the opportunity to capture Hannah + Ashley’s engagement session on an overcast day this past September, I knew it would be […]
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 […]
