I first met Tori back in 2016 when I photographed her older sister Kiersten’s wedding. Little did I know then that I would go on to photograph their sister Chelsea’s wedding in 2021 – and finally Tori’s wedding in 2024! Legacy clients are so special and the Stolen family means so much to me. They have trusted me with three incredible wedding days for their family and it was very bittersweet knowing that this was the very last one. I guess that means we’ll just have to start doing anniversary parties now!!
Although it rained all morning, the skies cleared just in time for Tori + Kyle’s First Look at Six Oaks. Tori looked stunning in her fitted strapless gown and Kyle looked so sharp in his white dinner jacket. I absolutely LOVE the black lining on the jacket’s lapel paired with the black vest underneath. Hands down, my favorite white dinner jacket look that I’ve ever seen! After their First Look and portraits, we were joined by their family + wedding party for group photos – then we all headed back to Sea Pines for their ceremony on the 18th lawn.
After their windy yet heartfelt ceremony, Tori + Kyle led their guests to cocktail hour via a second line through the harbor. A saxophonist played the entire way and it was so fun to see everyone dancing and celebrating on their way back to the clubhouse. A seated dinner followed cocktail hour, and then the dance floor opened up – and the party really started. Overall, it was an incredible day full of love and laughter – and the very best way to cap off my time with the Stolen girls. Here are some of my favorites from Tori + Kyle’s beautiful Sea Pines wedding in Hilton Head…

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! Combine them together and it’s the perfect recipe for a memorable soiree. Can I specialize in brunch weddings? Pretty please?! I just love them! The morning […]
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 […]
