Elena and Bryan met while attending the College of Charleston and they both love Charleston. After they were engaged they decided they wanted a destination wedding here. Creek Club at I’on was a wonderful choice for their intimate, beautifully decorated wedding. The weather even cooperated with rain started just after they said their vows and had walked back down the aisle. We were even able to get some gorgeous shots of the cloudy night sky!
Our first time photographing a reception at the Cooper River Room venue at Mount Pleasant Riverfront Park was incredibly rewarding, and provided an amazing dusk over Charleston and the Bridge. Lovely St. Luke’s Chapel, of is amazing for a small to medium sized wedding group and is absolutely perfect for pictures. Love it.

We were honored to photograph Katrina and Jake’s Wedding at Dunes West Country Club in Mt. Pleastant, SC on New Years Day this year!
Renee and Derek outside First Baptist Church, downtown Charleston, SCThe view of the Ravenel Bridge from their 28 Bridgeside reception location was absolutely BREATHTAKING at sunset!
Gorgeous sunset, wonderful view, and a couple in love...what more can you ask for?

You can tell a lot about people by how they handle stress and disappointment, and I can say that Trixie and Scott’s whole family is just top notch. Their wedding was September 6th, which was the day that Hurricane Hanna was supposed to hit Charleston. Their original ceremony and reception site, Seabrook Island, closed for storm preparations, and they had to completely pick up and move their entire event in 2 days. Fortunately Cottage on the Creek, near Shem Creek, came through with flying colors. Everyone, especially Trixie’s mom, Vicki, were so upbeat and happy and positive throughout the entire event, and it was a real encouragement to me.
The rehearsal dinner happened right in the middle of what was then Tropical Storm Hanna. It was very rainy. Trixie and Scott were good sports and went out for some pictures in the rain.
The wedding day, of course, was sunny and warm and beautiful. Trixie was very insistent that we do pictures outside.
Shem Creek is wonderfully characteristic of Charleston. I love their ceremony site.
People, sparklers are just meant to be waved at a safe distance. Please do not throw the sparklers at the bride and groom. Common mistake.
