Hotel Hartness – Greenville, SC Wedding Photographer

I have been over the moon about Hotel Hartness ever since I saw the first digital renderings online. I couldn’t wait for this beautiful boutique hotel to open outside of Greenville, SC. This time last year I first stepped foot on the property and I was instantly smitten. I walked around with my friend Renee Burroughs dreaming and giggling over how much loved it. I then had the opportunity a few weeks later of touring the entire property with Carly the Director of Catering and I had so much fun learning about the property and hearing about their plans for events and guests.

I remember getting into my car and immediately contacting Renee to tell her all about what I had leared about the property and to start dreaming about future weddings and events. Fast forward a few months and I reached out to both Carly & Renee to see if I could document a wedding editorial on the property. When Carly gave me the thumbs up I was over the moon. I immediately started chatting with Renee about the vision I was having and getting all the details into place. Y’all everything turned out beautifully and I am so excited to share just a handful of the images from the editorial with you all.

A huge thank you to Hotel Hartness for letting us use their incredible property as the backdrop. I am looking forward to documenting many weddings here in the years to come!!

Let me set the scene: Live oaks dripping with Spanish moss, waterfront backdrops that look like a Nicholas Sparks novel (but with less drama), and architecture that makes you want to whisper just out of respect. South Carolina is not messing around when it comes to wedding venues. Whether you’re planning an all-out wedding weekend […]

Kelsey & Tate were married overlooking Lake Norman at The Peninsula Club. The day was one of those days that you couldn’t beat weather wise. There was a cloud in the sky and it was just right with the temperature. Kelsey got ready with her ladies at her parents house where even her sweet pup […]

There’s something truly timeless about a wedding at Lowndes Grove in Charleston, SC. With its sweeping waterfront views, grand oak trees, and historic architecture, it’s the kind of venue that feels like stepping into a classic Southern dream. And as a wedding photographer, I can tell you—there’s no shortage of stunning backdrops for capturing unforgettable […]
