Fueled by equal parts caffeine and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come.

Fripp Island Wedding Day –

Meet Laura and Patick. They’re having THREE WEDDINGS! That’s right, you read that correctly… THREE! The first one was in Kansas City, the 2nd one was in Fripp Island, SC and in August they’ll complete their wedding season in Germany. Patrick is from Kansas, Laura is from Germany and most of their friends are throughout the Carolina’s. Not only did they want three weddings to share with each group of friends and family but they wanted to kick start their marriage with each part of what they consider home.

It was such a joy capturing their Fripp Island Wedding day! From popping champagne with the bridesmaids, to their stunning ceremony over looking the sound and then to the final jump into the pool at the end of the night, everything was so much fun!

I am so excited to share their amazing wedding today!

Patrick has a slight obsession with Star Wars. 🙂

We had some fun with this sign. Borrowed from one of the houses the Groomsmen were staying at.

Side note on this Sparkler exit… It was almost the end of my photography career….
So, we caught the brush under this boardwalk on fire. Literally ON FIRE. Two of the groomsmen jumped down to try to put it out. I reached for the bucket (out of reaction) to fill up water but it happened to have Sparklers in it so it was extremely HOT! I picked it up with my thumb and pointer finger.. pretty much the only two fingers on my right hand I need to use my camera. That being said I screamed and said some not some nice language and turned around as the staff brought buckets of water. I’m okay by the way and we finished the night with more photos and laughs about how **this party was LIT!**

Thank you Laura + Patrick for allowing me to photograph your amazing weekend! It was such a joy capturing the happiness you two bring to your friends, family and of course to one another!
