Most of my couples don’t live in South Carolina. In fact, most of my clients live elsewhere and are planning destination weddings here in the lowcountry. I always love it when I have the opportunity to do an engagement session with my clients before their wedding day. It helps us get to know each other and it makes the wedding day a little less stressful since we’ve already had the chance to spend time together.
I met up with New Yorkers Kaitlin + Gregory at their favorite beach spot in Sea Pines while they were in town for the RBC Heritage golf tournament last month. Gregory’s family has a home there in Hilton Head and it is a very special place to Kaitlin + Gregory, who will be getting married there next spring. We practically had the beach to ourselves on this windy but gorgeous morning! Kaitlin + Gregory were complete naturals in front of the camera and I just LOVE the way that they look at each other. When I asked them to hold hands while walking, they explained to me that they don’t actually hold hands. They hold pinkies! And I love capturing those fun, unique parts of my clients’ relationship with each other!
We had such a great time on the beach and I’m already excited for their big day next spring! Here are some of my favorites from Kaitlin + Gregory’s spring destination engagement session in Hilton Head…

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 […]
2023 was definitely one of the best years yet for my business. I had the honor of working with so many fabulous couples, in so many fabulous locations… including Spain, Italy, and Hawaii! I feel extremely lucky that I was able to experience such a tremendous year of growth and travel. Here are some of […]
This colorful winter wedding at Sea Pines Resort was the perfect way to start 2024. On one of the coldest days of the year, Caitlyn + Mark said “I do!” on the iconic 18th lawn at Harbourtown Links, overlooking the Calibogue Sound. Surrounded by their closest family + friends, their day was everything that Caitlyn […]
When I first started second shooting in 2011, I’ll admit… I had NO IDEA what I was doing. I was pretty good with my camera, technically. I could shoot in manual mode and had some understanding of flash. However, I wasn’t entirely sure of my role as a second shooter and had no idea exactly […]
