I’m pretty sure Kira was the only bride in Charleston on her wedding day that was hoping for the skies to stay cloudy and overcast! Although it’s a photographer’s dream for those conditions, brides usually want sun… and lots of it. Not Kira. She loves the moody, romantic feel of an overcast day – and for the most part, she got her wish! Although the sun did peek out a few times later in the afternoon, we were blessed with great weather for their wedding day.
The day started with a sweet First Look in Flowerdale garden, followed by portraits around the stunning grounds of Magnolia Plantation. We met up with their fabulous bridal party on the avenue of oaks, then headed to the Carriage House for their ceremony under a beautiful oak tree. The reception space looked INCREDIBLE, thanks to the ladies of Pure Luxe Bride. It was such a romantic + warm design… I loved it!! Guests enjoyed a variety of lowcountry-inspired cuisine, then danced the night away before Kira + Brent exited through a tunnel of glow sticks. Here are some of my favorites from Kira + Brent’s romantic glam wedding at Magnolia Plantation…

When Katie first told me about her wedding day vision – a classic brunch wedding overlooking the water at the iconic Ocean Course on Kiawah Island – I knew it was going to be such a beautiful celebration. There really isn’t anything like a Kiawah Island wedding! A custom Modern Trousseau ball gown, topped with […]
I met up with Dawn + Joey in February for their beautiful engagement session here in Charleston. They brought their two beautiful pups, Willow + Cricket, along for part of the session… and boy, did they have a blast at Hampton Park?!? I am totally OBSESSED with the photos of them walking together (below) because […]
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 […]
