Thanks for being here. š«¶
This little corner of the internet holds years of stories, art, and heart ā a place where connection meets creativity, and real moments become something forever.
Iām so grateful youāve found your way here.
If we havenāt worked together yet, I hope we do soon, especially if something here speaks to you. My hope is that these images invite you or encourage you to see yourself a little differently, through an artful lens.
Helen + Hunter Carter | 4.25.26
A spring garden wedding that felt like an actual dream. š¦
No detail was forgotten by Helen and Hunter. Personal touches everywhere you looked. Custom scarves, menus, coasters, matches. Guest fashion that fully leaned in. Every corner considered. Every moment felt. The kind of looks I will never forget.
I donāt think Iāll ever be over this day, or the simple fact that I got to witness and capture it. So be prepared for many, many more. 20 slides just isnāt enough!

Letās talk about creative vision and why itās important. š
Planning a shoot isnāt just picking a pretty location. Itās thinking about what you want your images to look and feel like.
What props do you want, whatās your styling looking like, what setting are you envisioningā¦they all work together to tell your visual story and create the aesthetic you want in your photos. Let me tell ya, I loveeeee a well-planned vision and some mood boarding.
But honestly, if you need advice, ask Sheli and Stuart because they delivered. šš

Sunrise never looked so good.
The moon was still hanging on, hues of blue, pink, and gold everywhere, and the energy was just incredible⦠it was one of those sessions that didnāt feel real (and not just because I was running on 4 hours of sleep hehe).
June canāt come soon enough.
Idk how, but itās been exactly 2 years since we flew to Dallas and I had @brittanyimani_ crawl into this vintage mustang to her newly announced *husband* creating one of my fav film images of all time.
Riding down memory lane after such a sweet anni recap by her. Feeling overwhelmed today, and really all the time lately, that I get to be a part of such special moments. I feel like she opened a time capsule posting memories from their elopement. Itās just so special to me. ā„ļø

Proof that everything happens for a reason.
Like two people, her from South Carolina and him from England, somehow crossing paths.
Like rain showing up unexpectedly, but then clearing just enough for the sun to come out and a rainbow to appear. Signs of good.
Like Danny mentioning on our call how much he wanted a vintage car for photos, then spotting one at breakfast, walking up to the sweetest couple, and askingā¦and them simply saying yes and showing up for them.
It was better than perfect. It was real, and it was theirs.
All the love for this sweet couple. Your day was such a joy to witness! š¤

a series of digital paintings with my camera + thoughts lately
ā
iām realizing how easy it is to slip into creating just to keep up
to perform
to produce
and how important it is to come back to this
to making things that feel like me
just for the sake of it
spring has been bringing me back to that
Your monthly reminder that branding photos should be farrrrr from boring.
The brand is YOU. The photos should reflect that.
Your personality. Your energy. Your style.
The best sessions start long before the camera comes out:
brainstorming, planning, styling, sourcing, building a vision.
If your brand photos feel boring⦠we should probably fix that. š¤

Forever enamored with the beauty of the Lowcountry. The setting, the styling, and the incredible energy of this rehearsal made the entire evening absolutely breathtaking.
Being in Charleston this weekend has me so excited for all the upcoming shoots and weddings this year. š„¹
