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…

I was introduced to Cait through former DCW bride and fellow photographer, Lindsay, who had worked with Cait previously, but was not available for her wedding day. I’m SO thankful that Lindsay connected us because I immediately fell in love with Cait and her vision for a sweet, intimate wedding celebration in Charleston. Caitlin’s parents […]
When Katie first told me about her wedding day vision – a classic brunch wedding overlooking the water at the iconic Ocean Course on Kiawah Island – I knew it was going to be such a beautiful celebration. There really isn’t anything like a Kiawah Island wedding! A custom Modern Trousseau ball gown, topped with […]
I met up with Dawn + Joey in February for their beautiful engagement session here in Charleston. They brought their two beautiful pups, Willow + Cricket, along for part of the session… and boy, did they have a blast at Hampton Park?!? I am totally OBSESSED with the photos of them walking together (below) because […]
Audra + Rahul’s beautiful traditional Indian wedding in Charleston was definitely one for the books. I absolutely LOVE everything about South Asian/Indian weddings… the colors, the attire, the music, the food, the traditions, the rituals, the family element, the dancing. There really is nothing like it and if I could specialize in shooting only South […]
From the very first time I spoke with Martha Camille, I knew that her Boone Hall wedding was going to be EPIC. I also knew that she was going to be a dream client for me – and she absolutely was! I love all of my couples, but it’s so extra special when someone has […]
When Martha Camille told me that she wanted to recreate her mother’s studio bridal portraits, I’ll admit… I was a little hesitant. I’ve never done studio bridal portraits before and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to bring her vision to life. As a creative, I love doing things that are outside of […]
