Featured on Wedding’s Unveiled!

The gals over at Weddings Unveiled wedding blog, Completely Unveiled just put together an amazing feature about Debbie and Clay’s early fall nuptials. This was such a fabulous wedding, it was held on Pawley’s Island where Clay spent much of his childhood. The ceremony took place at a small historic chapel which was packed from wall to wall with friends and family. The wedding party then made their way by boat to a private residence where guests mingled under the lantern hung oaks and dancing under a chandeliered tent which was elegant, glamorous and whimsical all at the same time! Debbie, named after the southern sweet, Little Debbies, had a cupboard filled with the sweet-treats placed under an oak which guests passed on the way out. The sign on top read “Clay’s Second Favorite.” After the cake cutting Debbie and her best friend snuck away where they changed Debbie into a shorter version of her gown which she came running back under the tent wearing!

Love this idea: Debbie wore her grandmother’s wedding ring pinned to her gown during the wedding.

Just thought I’d share a link to Red Letter Events here in Charleston. I’m loving Stacey’s new head shot we took together out at Cassique this summer!

Feature on The Wedding Row!

Heather — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 13:58:10 +0000

I love this city I live in! I love being in the heart of the South, in a city not-too-small, but most importantly, not-too-big. I love being on the coast, the kind of coast that you travel 3 miles inland and you find yourself at a 250 year old plantation! I love that this not-too-small-big-city has so much that larger cities have to offer – an amazing art scene, phenomenal food, our very own fashion week, and an amazing wedding industry! And within that industry we have some incredible publications, both print and online! Today I’m pleased as punch to be featured on Charleston’s premier wedding blog, The Wedding Row. Thanks Della for what you do! The Wedding Row is an amazing resource, and I’m so happy to see Lane and Jonathan’s engagement photos featured!

Featured on Elizabeth Anne Designs!

I’m so excited today to be featured on the amazing wedding blog, Elizabeth Anne Designs! After the vintage-traveled themed shoot with bride, Perry, I just had to share with Ami over at EAD! Perry and I had such a fun time planning for the shoot – for a month before the shoot we were emailing ideas and pics of suitcases, antique books and other oddities that started to fit just right into the idea we had for the shoot. The day went off without a hitch with close to 4 hours of shooting! Perry, you were a trooper and a big thank you to your very devoted, maid of honor!

Sweet Love

Don’t you just love summer! It brings out the sweetest in everyone! I had such a great time with Fall bride and groom, Lane and Jonathan, on our vintage-picnic-inspired engagement shoot! We did the whole shoot on Daniel Island where I live so scouted out the perfect picnic location earlier in the week! Land & Jonathan you were such troupers dealing with the heat and bugs! I had a blast!

Happy 4th of July from the OBX!

I’m so lucky to be spending my 4th of July with amazing bride and groom, Christine & William, who were married in the beautiful Outer Banks of North Carolina! Just thought I’d share these last couple shots from the evening! Happy 4th!

The right light!

Heather — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 19:22:47 +0000

My first order of business when I arrive on location is to start scouting the light. Yes, settings, backgrounds, waterscapes, architecture… they’re all hugely important, but a gorgeous backdrop is nothing without the right light. I love finding a spot underneath a big oak tree with just the perfect amount of diffusion and light speckling, or a big covered front porch reflecting light from multiple directions! And I love love love finding that perfect oh-so soft backlighting which can be rather elusive. I’m editing away at Pembry & Pedro’s lovely Bray’s Island wedding, when I just wanted to share this gorgeous shot, which was taken after our “bride + groom” shots while we were walking back towards the reception. I love the way the evening light is hitting the arching Spanish Moss!
