Waterfront lawns, high ceilings and a long Charleston afternoon. Christina and Anthony were photographed the way every wedding here is: quietly, on film and digital, with room left for the moments that were never on the timeline.

Christina & Anthony

Open sky, old oaks and a tent that glowed once the sun went down. Madelyn and Drew married at Agapae Oaks, deep in the Lowcountry, and the whole evening kept the soft, unhurried feeling the place is known for.

Spring Island sits out where the marsh takes over, and Caroline and Dustin used all of it. A tented celebration, a gown by Lela Rose, and coastal light that changed character every hour of the day.

Boone Hall gives a wedding its avenue of oaks and very little else to argue with. Abby and Stephen kept theirs simple and let the place carry the rest.

Sea Island holds its light late. Caroline and Chris married at The Cloister, and most of the day was photographed under the oaks while the color slowly went warm.

Hewitt Oaks is all canopy and hanging moss, and it does most of the work for you. Dayna and Jonathan were photographed there through the ceremony and out into the last of the light.

An avenue of live oaks, a long veil and a Lowcountry evening. Briana and Daniel married at Belfair, and the day stayed quiet and warm the whole way through.

The connection session is not really about the photographs. It is about what happens between us before the wedding day, so that by the time the day itself arrives none of it feels like being photographed at all.

Engagement sessions from around Savannah and the Lowcountry. Most couples are surprised by how different they feel on the wedding day after one of these.

Frames that stayed with me, gathered from across the archive rather than from any one wedding. Soft light, vibrant color, and the unguarded moments that live between the planned ones.
