This beautiful bride is finally a wife, and I couldn’t be more excited to share her sun-drenched bridal portraits full of southern romance and a touch of whimsy, photographed at the same venue where she said her vows! After what feels like ages of planning, prepping and daydreaming about sweet Katie’s big day, it was truly a “pinch me!” moment when I finally got to see her in her wedding gown. At times, it felt like we had all of Magnolia to ourselves, not to mention the perfect weather and blooming azaleas.

I have loved every moment of being Katie’s photographer, and am so thankful to know this sweet girl (who trusted the new girl in Charleston, just as I’d officially moved to town)! Congratulations to Katie and Drew!

Special thanks to the incredible team that brought Katie’s bridal portraits look to life! Floral by Tupelo Honey Flower Shop, makeup by Contours and Curls, Hair by More Becky Hair, Gown from Verita Bridal, Alterations from Kira Elizabeth Designs, Ring by Diamonds Direct, and a very big thank you to Magnolia Plantation for giving us an afternoon of exploring the property!
