“Last August, I spent the afternoon with Marisa & Jimmy wandering through Magnolia Plantation & Gardens, one of the most breathtaking spots in Charleston. We walked a few of the shaded trails, explored some of the bridges, and even visited the area where they’d later say “I do.” After that, we headed downtown to soak in the charm of cobblestone streets, Rainbow Row, and those classic Charleston backdrops that make this city feel timeless. Their wedding would come just a few months later, but this day was all about the quiet moments leading up to it. It was warm, romantic, and filled with everything I love about…”

Before the ceremony, they decided to do things a little differently. After their first look, portraits, and some family photos, they hosted a pre-ceremony cocktail hour where they mingled with guests, laughing and enjoying the moment. Then, instead of walking in separately, they entered the ceremony hand in hand, smiling side by side, and walked one another down the aisle. It was such a personal and joyful touch that felt…”

Fast forward to September 2024, and I was back in Texas—this time, capturing Grace and Brandon’s engagement session in Fredericksburg. That was the perfect lead-up to their beautiful West Texas wedding at the Gage Hotel in Marathon.
Their wedding day was truly unforgettable. After an intimate ceremony in the charming Gage Chapel, they celebrated at the Ritchey Building, where Ice House Band had the dance floor packed all night long. Before the reception, we slipped away to a nearby ranch with an incredible…”
Read More“Emma and Wilson’s love story is the kind that feels meant to be—playful, unexpected, and so romantic. Their Downtown Greenville engagement session began and ended at the Westin Poinsett, the very place where they’ll say “I do” later this year. In between, we made our way to Neat Bourbon Bar, the spot where fate (and a little friendly competition) first brought them together. Wilson was playing a game with his friends that required him to get a stranger to tie his shoe—so he walked up to Emma. They struck up a conversation, shared a few laughs, and before she knew it, she was helping him complete the challenge. That small moment led to something so much bigger…”

'Aw, I'd love to, Javier!' - Mandy
It's 2018, and Bumble is the hottest dating app - back when dating apps were still novel and fun. Mandy and Javi, having realized they live in neighboring buildings, arrange a first date in no time, at Good Night Sonny in the East Village.
A harbinger of things to come, Mandy had “good-bye drinks” scheduled for her work friend, Maddy, that same evening, and misjudged the time it would take to get from the West Side to the East Side of Manhattan, and showed up an hour late to the date. They missed their reservation..."
”Mark and I first connected during my stent as a travel nurse in Boston. On our first date, he asked me how long I planned on traveling for, to which I replied, ‘until I figure out where home is!’.
Not even five minutes after parting ways that same day, I sent a text out to my family and best friends saying ‘I found my husband!!!’, and boy was I right. Turns out, home is right by his side, and we’ve been together ever since. I’m so lucky to have not only found the greatest love of my life, but also to have gained the most supportive, and fun best friend. I’m looking forward to a lifetime of last minute trips, bike rides, speakeasies, dancing, trying new restaurants, laughter, and long lasting memories.”
