Melissa + Michael’s wedding day was supposed to be a wash out. All week long, the forecast said 100% chance of rain + thunderstorms. So when the sun decided to grace us with it’s presence that day, we were all thanking Mother Nature for cooperating… and thanking the local meteorologists for being wrong!! It turned out to be the most beautiful late spring day for Melissa + Michael to say “I do!” with their guests and I’m so glad it was a dry one because they deserved to have amazing weather for their wedding day.
Melissa + Michael shared a beautiful First Look near the Carriage House, then took a little walk and explored the property with us before meeting up with their bridal party for photos. Everyone was in a great mood and it was so much fun to spend time with them and their bridal party! Melissa + Michael said “I do!” beneath the oaks and then danced the night away with their family + friends. It was a pretty epic dance party. I’m pretty sure Melissa + Michael never left the dance floor the entire night!! At the end of the evening, Melissa + Michael exited through a tunnel of sparklers before heading to their afterparty downtown. Here are some of my favorite images from Melissa + Michael’s beautiful rustic Magnolia Plantation wedding…

From the moment I first spoke to Sandra, I knew her wedding day was going to be something special. She had a clear vision of a day filled with special details, personalized moments, and a celebration of love that was truly unique to her and Matt’s love story. Being in the fashion world, I knew […]
There’s something undeniably magical about Charleston SC. The cobblestone alleyways, the historic charm, and the gentle breeze off of the water – which creates the perfect setting for love to flourish. When I had the opportunity to capture Hannah + Ashley’s engagement session on an overcast day this past September, I knew it would be […]
Hilton Head is a special place to Abby + Greyson, as Abby’s parents live there and she’s been visiting the area for years. I always love how the magic of Hilton Head and Sea Pines brings families together on such an incredible day. This September wedding day at Sea Pines started off with torrential rain […]
Somehow, it’s already February and I just realized that I haven’t posted my year-end recap from 2024. Yikes! Better late than never, I suppose! If I’m being totally honest and transparent, 2024 was a difficult year for me + my mindset. Self-doubt, not knowing where I “fit in”, feeling jealousy of other photographers, and not […]
