Dawn + Joey’s classic coastal summer wedding at Dataw Island Club was truly one that I will never forget. Every single detail was so thoughtfully curated and it was such an honor to be a part of their full wedding weekend. From their cozy rehearsal dinner the night before, to their epic celebration on the wedding day – I had the best time watching them both be surrounded by so much love and support from their family + friends.
The girls spent the morning getting ready at the Club and I just LOVED every single personal detail that Dawn picked out. From her amazing green Manolo’s, to her custom watercolor invitation suite, and her beautiful floral earrings… I honestly could’ve styled and photographed her details for DAYS! The bridesmaids wore beautiful LulaKate dresses in a sage green color that complemented the scenery so well.
As the ceremony began, we could all see a huge storm was rolling in – but thankfully, the rain held off just enough so that we could finish the ceremony and all of their photos. I’ve never shot wedding party, family, and portraits so fast in my life! As we arrived at the clubhouse, the skies opened and it rained the rest of the night – but lucky for us, the party was just getting started inside.
The dance floor was packed all night and I loved watching Dawn + Joey spend the entire night by each others’ side. The love that they share is so special and I am truly honored to have played a small party in their magical day. Thank you, guys, for allowing me to be a witness to your love and I wish you nothing but the best! Here are some of my favorite photos from Dawn + Joey’s beautiful summer wedding at Dataw Island Club…

Taylor and Clay’s wedding at the The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort felt like a natural extension of who they are – thoughtful, intentional, and deeply rooted in what they love most. Traveling to South Carolina from central Missouri, the two share a connection that’s been shaped in many ways by the game […]

Ava and Alex’s wedding day felt like the perfect blend of classic elegance and genuine, unfiltered joy – the kind of celebration where every moment feels light, meaningful, and deeply felt all at once. The two now call Greenville home, and their season leading up to the wedding was a full one. Ava just graduated […]

Tucked into the heart of historic downtown Charleston, Bri and Brett’s wedding felt less like an event and more like being invited into something deeply personal. Hosted at a private residence South of Broad – a home Bri knows well, as she manages the property for the owners – the setting carried a level of […]

Kendal and Alec’s wedding day at Sea Pines Resort felt relaxed, joyful, and beautifully personal from beginning to end. With close family and friends gathered on Hilton Head Island, their celebration was intentionally small – the kind of wedding where every guest feels deeply connected to the couple and the reason everyone is there. While […]

Some wedding days are beautiful. Others are joyful. And then there are the rare ones that feel like joy in motion – the kind you can feel in every frame, every laugh, every stolen glance. Rachel and Mac’s wedding at Magnolia Plantation was exactly that. From the very beginning, they chose to experience the day […]

For Jennie, Sea Pines has never been just a wedding destination – it’s home. Long before this day, she spent summers working in Harbour Town, learning its rhythms, its light, and the way life slows down just enough on Hilton Head Island. So when it came time to choose where she and Greg would get […]
