I Do: Joey & Kathryn. Greenville, SC Wedding Photography

Holy beautiful overload...that's how I would describe this wedding. Beautiful people inside and out, beautiful day, beautiful venues. I seriously found myself selecting way too many images to share with you! Joey and Kathryn are precious. Their story starts at Clemson University where they met in their Sociology of Marriage and Family class. Oh the irony. Pretty soon Joey (the outdoors man) had Kathryn(the cheerleader) hanging up her cheer leading shoes for hiking boots and a bike helmet not knowing that just a few years later they would be planning a January wedding. The weather was glorious on their special day. The ceremony was held at Radius church where these two attend. What a beautiful building filled with character! Kathryn accentuated the old rustic charm with tons of lights and candles. Perhaps one of the most stand out moments for me was watching Joey's face as Kathryn emerged at the back of the church (Kathryn please tell me the name of the song you walked down the aisle to! I cannot find it but oh I need to buy it!). It was out of a fairytale...this song is playing and Joey looks speechless and Kathryn floats down the aisle. It was amazing. I won't spend too many more words describing it all...you can see for yourself!! A huge shout out to my amazing loving and gracious husband who chauffeured me everywhere and carried my bags all day long for this special day. Enjoy the sneak peek! 

I Do: Rich & Ashley. Charleston, SC Wedding Photography

Rich and Ashley's wedding day was filled with elegant details and sophisticated charm. It was the perfect fit. Ashley is quietly stunning... by that I mean that she is subtle but remarkable all at the same time because she doesn't demand your attention but she captures it anyways. You can tell Richard is at ease when she enters a room and stands beside him. These two have a beautiful story, and their wedding day was a rich celebration of that. Ashley's wedding gown will likely take your breath away. The ladies over at The Gown Boutique of Charleston surely helped her find the "perfect dress"! For Rich and Ashley's big day, everything centered around downtown Charleston. We walked to St. Michael's for the ceremony and were then lead by a brass band on foot to the reception with all of their guests. Kathryn at Ooh Events pulled off an elegant party filled with gorgeous floral design. I loved the old windows used for the guest seating chart! A very special thanks to Hunter McRae for assisting me on this day and capturing the many details! Enjoy the sneak peek! 

 

Coming in 2012......

It's hard to imagine it's almost Christmas and soon we will be ringing in the New Year. I am about to close up shop for the holidays, but before I head for the mountains of NC I wanted to at least share a quick peek at a wedding coming soon. Look for a complete post of Rich and Ashley's Charleston wedding in the New Year! 

 

I Do: Mike & Jen, Wrightsville Beach, NC Wedding Photography

So I am in the Big Apple today with my hubs for my surprise birthday trip! How fun is that. Oh I have the best man in the world! We worked all week to be ready to finish up and share this beautiful wedding you are about to see...so he let me steal away to the computer for a few minutes! Before you scroll down to the beautiful pics though let me share with you about these beautiful people. I felt like Jen and I had already known each other for years despite the fact we met face to face for the first time on her wedding day. I felt like an old friend there to document one of the most important days for her life. She greets me with a precious gift for our little boy...and then proceeds to show me her dress, shoes, all the little details I love. Jen's excitement for life really cannot be put into words. No I mean it. If I could have about 10% of her exuberance I would be set! "Erin isn't this amazing"..."oh my goodness I love this"...."can you think of anything more perfect!"....I mean she is precious. Mike is a lucky man because he has married one of the most fun loving encouraging women I know. The day really was perfect. Perfect weather. Perfect setting. Jen had spent a lot of time planning and thinking through all the little details...even down to the boys socks (which I l-o-v-e-d). Mike and Jen both clearly come from very loving and supportive families and have such a strong foundation in their relationship already. So awesome to see God at work in our lives. Enjoy the sneak peek at this very special day! A huge thank you to my hubby for helping me and carrying my gear all day:). Also to Sarah Bartlett for tagging along and assisting me while also pregnant! We were quite a team!
