Maryland residents Suzanne and Joel fell in love with Magnolia Plantation over the internet. After seeing photos online, they knew it was the PERFECT spot for them to elope – even though they’d never even been to Charleston before, let alone Magnolia Plantation! But hey – I can’t blame them. Magnolia Plantation is absolutely beautiful and it WAS the perfect spot for their intimate and romantic elopement.
Suzanne + Joel’s wedding day started with a beautiful First Look and some portraits, followed by their amazing ceremony under the oaks. It was pure perfection. After their ceremony, we spent some more time exploring the plantation together – Suzanne + Joel even climbed into a tree that was perched above the Ashley River. Talk about EPIC!!! The best part of the day? Mother Nature timed things PERFECTLY for once. Although rain threatened the area, the rainy skies cleared mid-morning and remained dry up until the very last shot… literally! As we made our way back to the main house after we finished up shooting, it started to drizzle for the first time all afternoon. So thank you, Mother Nature, for keeping things dry for Suzanne + Joel’s beautiful wedding day!
Congratulations Suzanne + Joel! I loved being a part of your special day. Without further ado, here are some of my favorites from this fabulous Magnolia Plantation elopement…

I love it when my couples opt to do an engagement session with me before their wedding day. While it’s by no means necessary, I always really love getting to know my couples before the wedding day – and I also love being able to take some epic photos of them during this special time […]
From the very first time I spoke with Caroline, I knew that her wedding day was going to be so special. With just their immediate families in attendance, Caroline + Kevin’s day was centered around family – and they wanted to begin their life together surrounded by the people who love them the most in […]
Lauren + Matt are the embodiment of pure, unfiltered JOY. The way these two look at each other. The way they smile from ear to ear when they are next to each other. Absolute, contagious, electric joy. I truly feel so lucky to have been in the presence of their love. It’s a love that […]
In May, I headed to Atlanta for Lynsey + Tyler’s romantic wedding at Summerour Studio. I knew their wedding weekend was going to be special and it absolutely was! Their celebration started with a beautiful rehearsal dinner at the Peachtree Club, overlooking the city. It was so great to meet all of their VIP’s the […]
I first met Tori back in 2016 when I photographed her older sister Kiersten’s wedding. Little did I know then that I would go on to photograph their sister Chelsea’s wedding in 2021 – and finally Tori’s wedding in 2024! Legacy clients are so special and the Stolen family means so much to me. They […]
When I first spoke to Elizabeth last June, I knew that her wedding day was going to be something special. She spoke about getting married in her hometown of Beaufort SC – first, a sweet ceremony at her local church, followed by a tented waterfront celebration filled with bright colors and palm accents. Elizabeth wanted […]
