Gabby + Pedro’s wedding day was one for the books! The day started bright and early at Lowndes Grove, where Gabby and her bridesmaids got ready with her mom and future mother-in-law. It was such a fun group of ladies and I just loved their coordinating pajamas + robes! The guys arrived later in the morning for photos before everyone headed to the church for their mid-afternoon ceremony. The priest at Church of the Nativity gave the most beautiful homily I’ve ever heard as Gabby + Pedro said “I do!” in front of all of their friends + family.
After the ceremony, we headed back to Lowndes Grove for more photos and to await the arrival of Gabby + Pedro’s guests for cocktail hour. The reception space was absolutely stunning with long family-style tables topped with beautiful blush florals, candles, and lanterns. As usual, the ladies of Pure Luxe Bride and Branch Design Studio made everything look AMAZING!! Gabby’s mom even hand-made the LOVE sign displayed under the oak – so fun!! It was seriously the perfect evening to celebrate Gabby + Pedro as the sunset on the Ashley River. Here are some of my favorite photos from their beautiful garden-inspired wedding at Lowndes Grove…

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 […]
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 […]
