Maura & Andrew's Isle of Palms Wedding

Charleston is one of my favorite cities– especially in the fall when the temperatures are just about perfect and the humidity isn’t quite as powerful. Maura and Andrew had this perfect weather at the beginning of November for their wedding! Their big day was at Wild Dunes Resort on the Isle of Palms, right outside of Charleston. This venue served as the perfect backdrop for these two, especially since Maura grew up coming to Wild Dunes on family vacations. Not only were they both gorgeous, they also were the sweetest, and I felt so honored to capture their big day!

Charleston Styled Shoot

I’m excited to post something outside of normal weddings or engagement sessions! Almost a year ago now I was part of styled shoot in Charleston, S.C. The first part of the shoot we took portraits by the ocean, and for the second part I took detail shots at a plantation (I’ll post those separately!) I don’t know if it’s possible to take bad photo during golden hour at the beach. I’m a minimalist at heart, so I love the simplicity and subtle beauty in these images.
