Bonnie + John’s stunning celebration at Ford Field + River Club was definitely one of my very favorite weddings EVER. Bonnie had a super clear vision of what her wedding day would look and feel like – timeless, romantic, with plenty of candlelight and a Gatsby-esque vibe. Kelli Corn and her team executed Bonnie’s vision perfectly! The entire day was a dream.
Overcast skies gave us the softest light to work with throughout the day and the love surrounding Bonnie + John was palpable. Their bridal party was incredible and their families were so warm + welcoming… it truly felt like I was part of the family!
After a beautiful ceremony on the front lawn, guests were invited to the back of the club to enjoy cocktail hour overlooking the Ogeechee River. Bonnie + John mingled with their guests and got a sneak peek of their tented reception before anyone else was invited in. Bonnie’s jaw dropped as she saw the space. It was everything she imagined and I was so happy watching her walk around, admiring all of the fine details they had so carefully chosen.
Beatles tribute band, The Return, entertained guests after their seated dinner – then, DJ Wade got the party going late into the night. It was an incredible day for a truly incredible couple. Congratulations Bonnie + John… and THANK YOU for allowing me to document this amazing day for you + your families!!

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 […]
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!
