From the moment I walked in the front door of the beach house where Caroline + her girls were getting ready, I knew it was going to be an amazing day. Caroline greeted me with the warmest hug. So did her mom. All of the girls were pretty much done with their hair + makeup and things were running so smoothly… and it was a GORGEOUS spring day, to boot! Weddings can be stressful and they can bring out the worst in people. But Caroline + Zach’s wedding was the exact opposite! Everyone was so kind, gracious, and fun… serving families like theirs is a true honor and it makes me so thankful for this job. It’s weddings like this that make me fall in love with wedding photography over and over again!
Caroline + Zach opted to go the traditional route and didn’t see each other until the ceremony. Zach watched in awe as Caroline walked down the aisle on the arm of her father. It was a beautiful moment. Their ceremony was beautiful, spiritual, and personal – everything a ceremony should be. After they said “I do!”, we spent the entire cocktail hour taking photos before they were introduced at the Cotton Dock as husband + wife. Caroline’s cousin sang their first dance song and they partied with their guests all night long. At the end of the night, they exited through a tunnel of sparklers – the perfect ending to a dream wedding day. Here are some of my favorites from Caroline + Zach’s gorgeous spring wedding at Boone Hall Plantation…

Hannah + Matt’s intimate brunch wedding at The Sanctuary on Kiawah was such a special celebration. If there are two things I LOVE, it’s an intimate wedding and brunch!

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 […]
