Sommer & Buckner Charlotte Wedding

My favorite season of the year is fall. So when fall weddings land on my calendar I get giddy!! Sommer & Buckner were married on the most perfect fall day we could have. It was one of those days where there was a little chill in the air that morning & even in the evening.. but our afternoon hours were in my opinion the “perfect” temperature.

Sommer & Bucker had their ceremony at Belk Chapel which is located on the Queens College campus. They then made their way to the Charlotte Country Club to celebrate with their family and friends. Their day was such a sweet day to witness. From them both getting ready with a few family and friends surrounding them, to a first look followed but reading personal vows to one another, to another first look between Sommer and her amazing group of friends, to their joy filled ceremony, to dancing the night away.. it was the perfect day.

I am so excited to share a few images from Sommer & Buckner’s Charlotte Wedding.

Sommer & Buckner, thank you so much for wanting me to be there to document your day. It was an honor!!

A huge shout-out to all the vendors that made Sommer & Buckner’s wedding day a reality!

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.

Rachel & Ben were married on an incredible fall weekend in the upstate of South Carolina.  The weekend started out with family and friends celebrating these two at the Greenville Country Club for the rehearsal dinner.  The included hugs, the most beautiful toasts, and Ben grabbing his guitar and playing/singing for guests.  That evening set […]

For the last few years I’ve photographed Ballet Spartanburg’s performances of the Nutcracker.  It is an honor to capture these incredible students and professional dancers that share the stage for this family favorite in the heart of Spartanburg, SC.  Most years I capture the dress rehearsals, this past year due to a wedding in Charleston […]

After 18 years and hundreds & hundreds of weddings, I’ve had a front-row seat to some of the most thoughtful, personal, and beautifully designed wedding days across the Southeast. And when couples ask me what I remember most about a wedding, the answer is almost always the details. I think about the invitation suite printed […]
