On the same weekend last year, I photographed Mallory’s sister, Stacy’s, wedding at the Gadsden House – and I knew an engagement was on the horizon for Mallory. One year later, it was Mallory’s turn to say “I do!” to the love of her life, Brian, at the William Aiken House and I am SOOOOO grateful to have been the one they chose to document such an important day! Now that both Verner daughters are officially married, I’m thinking a yearly anniversary party needs to happen so that we can all come together again to celebrate this amazing family!
Mallory + Brian’s wedding day was incredible. It started with a sweet First Look and some bride + groom portraits, then we jumped right into bridal party photos since rain was threatening the area all day long. Lucky for us, it didn’t rain AT ALL… except about 10 minutes before the end of the reception, when the skies opened up and it POURED rain during their sparkler exit!! It was definitely a fun way to end the evening! Mallory + Brian chose an amazing color palette for their big day and the florals by Roadside Blooms were perfection!! Did you happen to see Mallory’s bouquet?!? HOLY MOLY!! It was a beast and oh-so-pretty. Seriously, one of my all-time favorite bouquets!! Sage green accents were the perfect pop of summer color and I love how they incorporated gemstones + geometric elements into their wedding decor… a sweet nod to Brian’s love of collecting fossils + rocks. It was the perfect summer celebration, for sure! Here are some of my favorites from Mallory + Brian’s garden party inspired summer wedding at the William Aiken House in downtown Charleston…

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. One of my favorite things […]
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 – […]
