Kelsey + TJ’s wedding day was the perfect way to start the month of October and, to be honest, the weather definitely felt more like mid-summer than the beginning of fall. Despite the record breaking heat on their wedding day, these two threw one EPIC party and everything was picture perfect from start to finish. We started their day out on Isle of Palms, where everyone got ready. Kelsey + TJ opted not to see each other before the ceremony, so we made sure to keep them hidden from each other until then. And let’s just talk about their ceremony… it was so sweet, so personal, and so beautiful!! I loved watching TJ’s face as Kelsey made her way down the aisle and after they were pronounced husband + wife, they couldn’t stop smiling!!
After combined family formals + bridal party photos, I spent portrait time with Kelsey + TJ exploring the property while their guests enjoyed cocktail hour. The lighting was BEAUTIFUL and their portraits are some of my very favorite bride + groom portraits to date!! As the sun set, Kelsey + TJ shared their First Dance as husband + wife and then spent the rest of the evening celebrating with their closest family + friends. Let me tell you… these guests knew how to DANCE and, of course, DJ Wade kept the dance floor packed all night! At the end of the evening, Kelsey + TJ exited through a tunnel of sparklers… an epic ending to an epic day! Here are some of my favorites from Kelsey + TJ’s beautiful fall wedding at Boone Hall Plantation…

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 […]
Lowndes Grove is a magical venue for romantic bridal portraits. The house is bathed in gorgeous light, thanks to the large windows throughout. It has plenty of indoor space that you can use in case of inclement weather. The rooms are beautifully decorated in a classic style that complements the overall aesthetic of the property. […]
