Ashley + Garrett. What can I say? I absolutely ADORE them. These two have been through a LOT in the past 3 months and I’m so happy that they finally got the celebration they deserve. COVID-19 shut everything down the week before their original wedding date, which was devastating. We were SO CLOSE!! After scrambling to reschedule their wedding celebration for June, they ended up getting officially married on their original date in Georgia. I’ll be honest – I was sad I couldn’t be there to capture that beautiful day for them, but the photos were gorgeous!!!
Fast forward 3 months and they finally got the big celebration they wanted! Skipping all formalities, Ashley + Garrett opted for a day that was laid back and focused on celebrating their marriage with all of their friends and family. We did a short portrait session downtown before heading back to the venue for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, Ashley + Garrett danced the night away together – and I couldn’t stop smiling. These two have had the BEST attitude throughout this experience. It’s so clear that they absolutely adore each other and I just couldn’t have asked for a better couple to get back into the swing of things with. Theirs was my first wedding back since March and it was an absolute BLAST!! Hands down, one of the most amazing days in my career – all thanks to Ashley + Garrett, who have weathered this storm with the best outlook possible.
Congratulations Ashley + Garrett – and THANK YOU for allowing me to capture this celebration for you!

There’s something incredibly special about celebrating a wedding at home – especially when that home is one you’ve only just begun making your own. Molly and Erik had recently purchased their home on James Island, and instead of planning a large, traditional wedding, they invited their immediate families and closest friends to join them there […]
There was an ease to Allyson and Brian’s wedding day that made it such a joy to photograph. From the moment I arrived at The Ocean Course on Kiawah Island, everything felt relaxed, intentional, and centered on what mattered most: celebrating their marriage with the people they love. No overcomplicated timeline, no unnecessary stress – […]
After three years of being engaged and originally planning a much larger wedding, Allison and Jake decided to take a different path. Instead of a big celebration, they chose an intimate wedding day centered around what mattered most to them: each other and the people they love most. With just 19 guests in attendance – […]
When a place has been woven into your family’s traditions for years, there’s something especially meaningful about beginning your marriage there. For Addison, Kiawah Island has been a beloved part of life since childhood. So when it came time to choose a wedding location, bringing family and friends together on the island where so many […]
Charleston weather likes to keep everyone on their toes, but even by Lowcountry standards, Caroline and Cody’s wedding day was memorable. Rain fell for most of the day – a rarity in Charleston, especially when it seems determined to stick around from morning until ceremony time. Yet through every forecast update, timeline adjustment, and weather-related […]
Some wedding days are beautiful because of the details. Others are beautiful because of the people. Ansley and James’ wedding in Columbia, South Carolina was the rare combination of both. After seven years together, these two gathered their favorite people for a celebration that felt joyful, colorful, and completely centered on the relationships that matter […]
