I knew from the very first time I met Kayla + Scott that they were a DCW couple and I left our first meeting with my fingers crossed that they would choose me as their wedding photographer. Luckily, they DID choose me to document their wedding day and it was simply amazing. Kayla + Scott are such genuine, fun-loving, gracious, and kind people – and their families are just as fabulous! It was such an honor to document this perfect day for them all and I can’t thank them enough for allowing me to be a part of it all.

So let’s talk about Kayla’s dress. I mean, COME ON!! It was a showstopper, for sure – and Scott looked so dapper with his white dinner jacket. The two of them together looked like they stepped right out of a classic movie! Kayla + Scott shared a sweet First Look in one of my favorite gardens at Magnolia, then we took some time to explore the property – and Kayla + Scott climbed into a tree!! See? They really ARE a DCW couple!!
They said “I do” with the beautiful white bridge in the background, then spent the rest of cocktail hour touring the property with me taking more photos. I was in heaven! Guests enjoyed cocktail hour in front of the Veranda and as soon as the bridal party was introduced into the reception, the skies opened up and it began to pour down rain. Thank you, Mother Nature, for waiting until dark to rain!! Kayla + Scott didn’t leave the dance floor all night and everyone had a great time celebrating the newlyweds. At the end of the night, Kayla + Scott left through a tunnel of sparklers and jumped into a classic getaway car. It was the perfect ending to their beautiful wedding day.

Katelyn and Andrew’s wedding day was a beautiful blend of timeless elegance, meaningful family moments, and an incredible celebration with their favorite people.

Hannah and Chandler’s wedding day was the perfect combination of classic Charleston charm and laid-back coastal elegance. With an intimate ceremony downtown followed by a relaxed waterfront celebration on Isle of Palms, their day was filled with thoughtful details, beautiful scenery, and the people who mean the most to them.

Taylor and Hutch’s wedding at the Pavilion at Patriots Point was colorful, stylish, and filled with so much personality. From the unexpected color palette and playful animal-print details to the incredible sailcloth tent overlooking Charleston Harbor, every part of the day felt distinctly them. Their palette mixed rich shades of brown with lilac, chartreuse, soft […]

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 – […]
