MEET Holly & Grant

Danielle + Ben eloped in beautiful sunny Charleston this spring. Their nautical blue-themed elopement was the perfect compliment to the sunny bright homes of downtown. Their reception and getting ready space was at the most quaint Airbnb downtown. We spent the morning getting ready, before heading to their dockside ceremony in the late afternoon! After their nuptials, we floated the river on their boat, and captured the best dreamiest portraits of them!

She is starting a new business, […]

This Harrisburg family session will go down as one of my favorites forever. Blossom season is my favorite season of the year! Each year, the Harrisburg Capitol has some of the prettiest magnolia blooms in the area. When Yvonne reached out about spring family photos for Mother’s Day, this was the first place that came […]
