Hotel Domestique Wedding | Chelsea & Drew

Chelsea & Drew were married at Hotel Domestique and their wedding day was near perfect. From beautiful Carolina blue skies, to the most beautiful blooms, to the set list the band played all evening.. it was an amazing day.

The day began with both Chelsea & Drew getting ready with a few friends and family members there at the hotel. Chelsea & Drew chose to have a first look so that they could spend as much time as they could after the ceremony with their guests.

All the moments from first look, to intimate off to the side hand holds, to their vows to one another, to their toasts to those there to celebrate them, to everyone dining and dancing under the stars was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. Everything about their day was well thought through and done with intention and it was an honor to be there to document the day for Chelsea & Drew.

Chelsea & Drew, thank you so much for wanting me to document your wedding day.  Loved my time with you two, your families and friends So much!!

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

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 […]
