Lindsay + Colin are some of my very favorite humans EVER and their wedding day was one that I would gladly shoot over and over again for the rest of my life. Seriously. You know when you just click with some people? Lindsay + Colin are those people. And I am forever grateful that they chose me to document their amazing wedding day.
They decided to get married at her childhood home, a beautiful spot on the water on James Island. The first time I set foot on their property, I immediately understood why Lauren wanted to get married here. Their property is STUNNING and the huge live oak in their backyard was the perfect backdrop for their ceremony.
It was very important to Lindsay + Colin that their wedding day was effortless and relaxed. Their naturally cool + calm demeanors were reflected in the timeline of their day. We gave them plenty of time for photos with their friends + family, while also making sure there was time for them to breathe and just “be”. To take it all in together. Watching them embrace the day and focus on their friends + families was such a joy. They made the day theirs – something I wish all of my clients would do. No fanfare, no fuss. Just a kickass party with the people that matter the most to them!
After a sweet ceremony officiated by Lindsay’s brother, they spent the rest of the evening on the dance floor together and let me tell you… it was one of the best dance parties I have EVER witnessed! At one point in the night, it started raining – and everyone just embraced it, dancing on the alfresco dance floor while raindrops fell around them. It is weddings like these that remind me how lucky I am to do what I do and how lucky I am to witness true love. Lindsay + Colin, you guys are literally the BEST and I can’t wait to follow your journey together. Here’s to years and years of belly laughs and epic dance moves!

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 […]
Lauren + Matt are the embodiment of pure, unfiltered JOY. The way these two look at each other. The way they smile from ear to ear when they are next to each other. Absolute, contagious, electric joy. I truly feel so lucky to have been in the presence of their love. It’s a love that […]
