Last weekend, my assistant and friend Laura got married to Alex. I love them both. I photographed their engagement session and had a total blast. As a wedding present, I offered to photograph the wedding. It was a true friendship and family affair since they asked my husband's band to play at the reception (he's the one with the trombone).
Their wedding was a true Southern affair. A thoughtful and reflective ceremony and a reception in a gorgeous antebellum house. A perfect mix of sophistication, handmade, European elegance and simplicity. A lovely way to embrace the town and flair of our beautiful city, Charleston.
Here are some of my favorite pictures from the day. Thank you Laura for entrusting me with making your memories last a lifetime through a few (many) shots.
Getting Ready... The Anticipation...
Getting Married ...
Married! ...Stolen moments before the reception ...
Let's Party! ...
Congratulations and Best Wishes Laura & Alex!

My thoughts are the same as Averie's - Helene, you could certainly go right into wedding photography without a moment's notice!
Laura & Alex look so in love - your camera made me feel like I knew them - you were able to catch their love for each other as well as their excitement for the day.
The sepia-toned shots were especially nice.
Well done!
