Adrian & Jody’s Beautiful Daniel Island Wedding at Smythe Park

Adrian and Jody had a breathtakingly beautiful wedding in Smythe Park on Daniel Island. This is one of my favorite places in Charleston, in general, so I was thrilled to have the opportunity to shoot a wedding there!

Adrian looked smashing in her wedding dress, and was cool as a cucumber all day long. Amanda Assey from Southern Chic Weddings did an incredible job coordinating the day. (If you are looking for a wedding planner or day-of coordinator, I highly recommend her services!) Also, Cru Catering did an amazing job catering. They had to bring an entire kitchen out to there; it was impressive!

Here are a few of my favorites from their wedding day:

Lauren and Graham’s wedding at First Baptist Church Downtown and the Old Exchange, Charleston, SC

Update!  The album is available to view! Check it out.

Taking place in the two of the most historically ‘Charleston’ Venues on the Peninsula (First Baptist and The Old Exchange), Lauren and Graham had a very classy, well paced wedding. The wedding party had a little parade between the church and the reception, which I think is a great touch. We even ended up with extra time to take a few shots down by the waterfront before we went into the reception. Lauren and Graham hold the current record for ‘longest on the books’. They booked us for their wedding about a year and 9 months ahead of time! We’ve been looking forward to this for a while.

Leo and Kristin’s Wedding at Summerall Chapel and The Vue at Ripley Point

Update:  Leo and Kristin’s Wedding Album is available to view. Check it out!

This was a phenomenal wedding to be a part of.  Leo’s family is Nigerian, and came dressed in traditional Nigerian wedding attire, which made for very colorful pictures (especially against the grandeur of Summerall Chapel at the Citadel, where both Leo and Kristin attended and graduated).  My first experience at The Vue at Ripley Point definitely lived up the the hype.  Boasting a very rare view of the Charleston peninsula, and Marina Access (Leo and Kristin arrived by boat), The Vue is one of my new favorite reception venues in Charleston, SC.

Emily and Shawn’s Charleston, SC Wedding at Emanuel AME Church and The Francis Marion Hotel

Update: The Album Design is available to view! Check it out!

This was my first time visiting or shooting Emanuel AME on Calhoun St.  What a beautiful Church–especially when the sun is on the stained glass.  Just a block away from the reception site, Francis Marion Hotel, Shawn and Emily’s wedding was a great experience for us.  I’m particularly happy with the ceremony shots as well as some of the portraits at the end of the evening.

Brandon’s shoot around North Charleston

It was last Tuesday when the Brandon and the Dynamic Duo (Mell and Wanda) were seen in North Charleston. The sky was moody all day, but the temperature told secrets of the fall weather to come. Some passersby wondered what was going on…where the laughter was coming from. Here’s a small glimpse into what exactly happened that evening:

Nadia and Joe’s Wedding at Summerall Chapel and the Citadel Beach House

Had an amazing time at this wedding.  Right from the first meeting Nadia wanted to do a trash the dress session on the beach–ON her wedding day.  So after the very sweet ceremony at Summerall Chapel, we headed to the Citadel Beach House, and as the sun set, we took the whole wedding party out onto the beach for the most fun beach-day wedding session I’ve ever done.  Thanks Nadia and Joe!  Enjoy!
