Sailboat Wedding in Charleston Harbor on the Schooner Pride

They are both ship captains, and very happy.













Alicia & Steven’s Old Wide Awake Plantation Fall Inspired Wedding

I love Old Wide Awake Plantation in Hollywood, the house, the grounds, the trees, the pond and fountain, all great features!  Alicia spent a lot of time working on wedding details from the center pieces to the signs, with acorns everywhere. It was a gorgeous fall day and their details represented it! Instead of your typical sand ceremony, Alicia and Steven did an Acorn Ceremony, mixing together acorns from his home town and her home town.  The cake was gorgeous with a basket weave icing and flowers on top. And since Steven works in the food industry, I knew the food would be awesome… and IT WAS! It was the first time I have ever seen a Grilled Cheese Station!  Even the moon looked amazing, as the sun went down. Truly a great day, for a sweet couple!













Megan & Cisco’s Ceremony and Reception at The Island House

I met with Megan in November 2011 to talk with her about her wedding. And like most of my clients, we clicked. When we met and did their Engagement shoot at Magnolia Plantation earlier this year, it was my first time meeting Cisco. I promised not to make him do anything cheesy, which I think made him feel better about it! Megan’s bridal portrait session almost was rained out, but thankfully the weather cleared up and the sky looked beautiful at Boone Hall. So when their wedding day came, we had already spent a lot of time together which made it feel more like I was fortunate enough to be shooting a dear friend’s wedding. The flowers at The Island House were all in bloom and butterflies were flying around everywhere! Everyone had a fabulous time singing karaoke at the reception! The sunset set at The Island House is always amazing and this night was no exception! Congratulations Megan & Cisco, you guys rock!









Ellen & Ryan’s Dunes West Ceremony & Reception

I sincerely cannot say enough about how everything about this wedding was perfect! The night before the wedding I photographed the rehearsal dinner at Cottage on the Creek. It was really great to meet all of Ellen and Ryan’s friends and family. Everyone was very kind and I enjoyed spending the evening with them, especially on such a gorgeous night. The next day the weather was just as amazing! Ellen and Ryan chose to have their ceremony under the other large tree by the water (which was the first time I have seen it set up there, and I loved it). Hanging in the center of the aisle, from the tree was a beautiful chandelier. The sun shining through the moss during the ceremony made the setting even more fantastic. Ryan’s family is the name sake for the Wynkoop Beer Company, so there was plenty on hand, as well as the story for everyone to read. The only place suited for their night shot had to be back at the ceremony site, and I think it was a great ending to their picture perfect day!














Beth & Jeff’s Wild Dunes Ceremony & Reception

Beth & Jeff had one of the easiest going weddings of the year. Everyone was relaxed and just enjoying everything about the day. The ceremony was at the Grand Pavilion with the reception by the pool. My favorite time was spent with them on the beach. The sky was amazing and we got really lucky with the weather and timing! Congratulations guys!










Scott & Lorilee’s Alhambra Hall Ceremony & Reception

Scott & Lorilee put a lot of planning into their special day! There were lots of gorgeous details and beautiful flowers! Before entering the ceremony they played a video by Film Anywhere.  It was wonderful to hear their story and see them interacting together on the beach, hanging out and even working out. Cupcake provided lots of flavors of cupcake goodness! And I love the shots of the two of them after the ceremony under the tree and their night shot with the bridge lit up! It was great getting to know this awesome couple!










Charleston Wedding Photography- Courtney and Mark at Magnolia Plantation

Courtney and Mark had their rehearsal at the Charleston Visitor’s Center, which included a unique cake of their cat Henlee.

Their wedding was at the Carriage House at Magnolia Plantation, where some sweet Jewish traditions took place. What’s not to love about the Hava Nagalia and Blue Steel?
