Lizzie + Eli’s wedding day was EVERYTHING!! A girl after my own color-loving heart, Lizzie’s fun + quirky personality was infused into every detail of her wedding day – from her adorable sneakers to her neon pink second gown to her incredible lounges adorned with funky, colorful pillows. Throw in some AMAZING florals from Tiger Lily and it was pure magic!!
Originally, Lizzie + Eli were supposed to get married the first weekend in April… but COVID had other plans. They actually eloped in their home state of Texas in late March – and their new wedding celebration happened to fall on their 4 month anniversary! Lizzie + Eli are opposites in many ways, but they make such a strong couple. Just watching them interact with each other throughout the day, it was clear that these two have something very very special. We started the day off with a sweet First Look, then headed downtown for some bride + groom portraits in the historic district. We met up with their bridal party back at the venue for group photos and guests joined shortly thereafter.
Foregoing a second ceremony, Lizzie + Eli opted for an extended cocktail hour where they got to spend time with their closest family and friends. It was the perfect evening for a summer wedding in downtown Charleston!! Guests dined on traditional lowcountry fare and everyone spent the evening mingling and dancing in celebration of Lizzie + Eli’s marriage. At the end of the night, Lizzie + Eli exited through a tunnel of guests who tossed dried flower petals… the perfect ending to an epic 4 month anniversary celebration!! Here are some of my favorites from Lizzie + Eli’s colorful summer wedding at the William Aiken House…

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 […]
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 […]
