Kiera + Brian’s wedding day was absolutely incredible. From beginning to end, it was such a special day and I am so honored to have been a part of it. Last fall, I visited them in their hometown of NYC for their engagement session – that, in and of itself, was a dream come true – and it felt like no time had passed when I saw them both on their wedding day. I just adore Kiera + Brian. They are two of the nicest people and I’m so glad that they were able to have the wedding day of their dreams in beautiful Charleston.
After a beautiful intimate ceremony at nearby St Luke’s Chapel, which was officiated by Brian’s father, everyone headed out to beautiful Lowndes Grove Plantation for the reception. The ladies of Pure Luxe Bride brought Kiera’s vision of a classic, elegant garden-inspired celebration to life with gorgeous florals by Branch Design Studio, plenty of candles, gorgeous vintage plates, and one of my favorite wedding cakes EVER!! I loved their color palette of light blue paired with pops of bright pink, orange, peach, blush and cream. It was absolutely perfect!
Stephen of Darby Events kept the dance floor packed all night and the newlyweds exited through a glowing tunnel of sparklers at the end of the night. Here are some of my favorites from Kiera + Brian’s gorgeous Lowndes Grove wedding…

I love it when my couples opt to do an engagement session with me before their wedding day. While it’s by no means necessary, I always really love getting to know my couples before the wedding day – and I also love being able to take some epic photos of them during this special time […]
From the very first time I spoke with Caroline, I knew that her wedding day was going to be so special. With just their immediate families in attendance, Caroline + Kevin’s day was centered around family – and they wanted to begin their life together surrounded by the people who love them the most in […]
Lauren + Matt are the embodiment of pure, unfiltered JOY. The way these two look at each other. The way they smile from ear to ear when they are next to each other. Absolute, contagious, electric joy. I truly feel so lucky to have been in the presence of their love. It’s a love that […]
In May, I headed to Atlanta for Lynsey + Tyler’s romantic wedding at Summerour Studio. I knew their wedding weekend was going to be special and it absolutely was! Their celebration started with a beautiful rehearsal dinner at the Peachtree Club, overlooking the city. It was so great to meet all of their VIP’s the […]
I first met Tori back in 2016 when I photographed her older sister Kiersten’s wedding. Little did I know then that I would go on to photograph their sister Chelsea’s wedding in 2021 – and finally Tori’s wedding in 2024! Legacy clients are so special and the Stolen family means so much to me. They […]
When I first spoke to Elizabeth last June, I knew that her wedding day was going to be something special. She spoke about getting married in her hometown of Beaufort SC – first, a sweet ceremony at her local church, followed by a tented waterfront celebration filled with bright colors and palm accents. Elizabeth wanted […]
