Carly & Grant | California Wedding Photographer

I met Carly back in 2021 when she was a bridesmaid at a wedding here in South Carolina. Less than a year later she was starting to plan her wedding back home in California and she messaged me and asked me if I’d be willing to travel to photograph her wedding day. Let’s just say I screamed “YES” at my computer!!!

I have LOVED getting to know Carly & Grant over the last year. They love each other and their family and friends fiercely and it was a joy to watch how much those same people they love hard… love them back! Carly & Grant were officially married on September 10, 2021 but decided a year later to have a larger wedding with all their family and friends. A day after their first wedding anniversary, on the most beautiful (yet VERY warm) California day… they stood in front of their family and friends and shared their personal vows and exchanged rings. There was laughter and happy tears and a lot of smiles!! They then spent the evening celebrating their marriage with everyone!! September 11th was so fun and I’m super excited to share some of my favorites from Carly & Grant’s wedding day with you!!

Carly & Grant, getting to document your wedding day was such an honor!! Thank you for wanting me to travel to California to capture it and now I’m eagerly awaiting the text from you that hopefully says “we’re being sent to the east coast!!!” We can’t wait to hug y’alls necks again soon!!!!

Photography is in my blood and seeking truth is in my soul. Which is a deep way of saying, I’ve loved to take photos for a really long time, y’all. I’d love to share my story with you then listen to yours.

When it comes to reliving your wedding day, what do you reach for first? Sure, you can scroll through a gallery on your phone, but there’s something undeniably special about holding a beautiful, handcrafted album in your hands. A wedding album isn’t just a collection of photos—it’s your love story preserved in a way that […]

Savannah & Matthew had the most perfect April wedding day!  These two were married in Greenville, SC at Daniel Chapel on the campus of Furman University and then headed downtown to Huguenot Loft for their reception. The day started with Savannah & her ladies at her parents house right outside of downtown Greenville.  From the […]
