Middleton Place is one of my very favorite venues in Charleston. The gardens are spectacular, the vibe is so romantic, and the best part? The sheep! It’s no wonder Emmy + Ian chose Middleton as the place for them to get married! With the help of the fabulous team at MOD Events, their vision for a romantic garden-inspired celebration came to life in the most magical way.
Though the forecast had been calling for rain all week, showers left the area early in the morning and the rest of the day was perfection. Overcast skies make for the BEST photos!!
Following their First Look under the oaks, Emmy + Ian shared private vows. I am LOVING this new tradition! So many couples are now opting to do private personal vows after their First Look and it’s always such a sweet + intimate moment to capture.
After some portraits around the property, we met up with their wedding party and family for formal photos in the Octagonal Garden – and shortly thereafter, guests started to arrive for their ceremony. Following a sweet ceremony officiated by Ian’s brother in law, guests enjoyed the beauty of Middleton while drinking cocktails under the oaks. Dancing and celebration followed – and the dance floor was PACKED all night. Emmy, Ian, and their friends + family really know how to party! Here are some of my favorites from Emmy + Ian’s beautiful Middleton Place wedding…

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 […]
