Samantha and Chase’s wedding in Charleston was my last one to photograph in 2016, and it was nothing short of perfect. The seaside location, the perfect weather, the awesome dresses, the fun wedding party, and most importantly the Christ-filled ceremony made this one something special to remember. Not only was this couple was lifted up in prayer throughout they day, but they included their love for the Lord in so many other ways too. It surely started their marriage off in the best way possible.

Samantha and Chase, I had the best time photographing your love story, and I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from your beautiful day!Samantha and her brother have such a sweet relationship. He even joined us for her bridal session to keep her laughing! When he walked in on her wedding day and saw her as a bride, they couldn’t help but get emotional. After much thought, Samantha and Chase decided to have a First Look. They had written letters to one another and brought them to read aloud. Aren’t these sequin bridesmaids dresses are SO fabulous!?If you’re getting married and considering a First Look, take a peek at this. Even though Samantha and Chase saw each other before the ceremony, the emotions were still very much present when the doors opened and she started her walk down the aisle.We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect sunset evening. and I love everything about this wedding party!

See the orange colors behind them? Yeah, that’s the sunset over the ocean. It was beautiful! This girl has skills…even with a boot on her foot, she managed to catch the bouquet! I love it!
