I Do: Ward and Cameron, Charleston SC Wedding Photography

An elegant Souther soiree to share with you today. Ward and Cameron(ok really Cameron and her mom:)) planned a beautiful wedding at the Yacht Club in downtown Charleston complete with silver candelabras, soft blue accents, and even South Carolina hand towels for each of their guests to take home as gifts! The soft blues and greens were gorgeous. Cameron's dress was breathtaking. The detail in the fabric was so interesting- I have honestly not seen another dress like it. Ward and Cameron planned a "first look" in one of the tiny Charleston alleyways as they really wanted to get in as many of their photos before so as to spend as much time as possible at their reception. After their ceremony at St. Luke's, we still stole away for a few out by the water at the Yacht Club....perfectly fitting as Ward is an officer in the Navy and these two love the water.  It was a wonderful laid back day filled with such supportive family and friends. The reception probably could have gone on for hours longer! Cameron chose a band from Alabama that had entertained at some of her college sorority functions and they were amazing. I think you will be able to tell....people had a good 'ole time. Enjoy the sneak peek!

More to come soon (including another wedding:) ). 

I Do: Josh & Jacqueline. Lake Lanier Islands, GA Wedding Photography

I have so been looking forward to sharing this gorgeous Georgia wedding. So much thought and careful attention to detail went into planning Jacqueline and Josh's big day. I loved the use of so many natural elements like the tree trunk place holders and cake base, and the babies breath garland. Jackie and Josh wanted a very rustic feel to their decor for their lakeside wedding in Georgia. Jacqueline is originally from the Atlanta area, and the resort at Lake Lanier was the perfect feel for what she was envisioning. Jacqueline's sister Cassie and her husband Gary are dear friends of Matt(my hubs!) and I. It was so very special to feel a part of this family for such an important day in their lives. Jacqueline and Josh seemed to just float through the day. Calm. Excited. It was what they've been waiting for since they day they met at the Citadel years ago. It was really wonderful to just watch their contentment and love for one another. A big thank you to Connie Hill for assisting me and offering her talents to this sweet couple. Enjoy the sneak peek! 

I Do: Michael & Christina, Liberty SC Wedding Photography

Michael and Christina are dear friends. It was such a joy to play such an important role on their wedding day. Even behind the lens I felt I was able to share every moment with them. Editing and preparing these images to show you has brought countless smiles to my face. I think it's pretty evident that these two are just totally smitten for one another. When Michael proposed, and Christina (after saying yes!) started looking for venues in her hometown of Liberty, SC, they just couldn't seem to find "the perfect spot".  Without hesitation Christina's Dad volunteered her childhood home for the wedding...not only that he would build a gazebo in the woods for the ceremony. I think the end result was bigger and more amazing than anyone's imagination. This was one serious gazebo. It really made the wedding say that much sweeter knowing how much time, energy, and love was poured into making everything perfect. I loved how Christina chose to display her bridals that we had taken...hanging from different trees around the reception. The night ending with dancing under the gazebo and a sparkler exit. It was beautiful. Enjoy the sneak peek! Special thanks to Lindsay Alexander for shooting beside me in the heat to make some gorgeous images for these two! Thank you again Michael and Christina for sharing such a beautiful worshipful day with us!
