THE HEART BEHIND WHAT WE DO
I was born and raised in the coastal city of Charleston, South Carolina and after marrying my husband David, we moved out to beautiful Isle of Palms. Since then, I’ve traveled up and down the East Coast documenting love stories for couples and families.
My love for photography has brought me everywhere from the beaches of Southern Florida to the mountains in Hawaii. But regardless of where I travel, the cobblestone streets and colorful houses of Charleston will always be my home.
