There’s just something about bridal portraits. You spend so much time choosing every detail of your dress, hair, makeup, shoes, jewelry, flowers, and everything else, and I love having a few minutes to photograph it all together before the ceremony.

I’ll always vote for making a little room in the timeline for photos of just you. Not an hour-long photoshoot. Just a few minutes before the day gets moving.

How many hours of wedding photography do you actually need?

6 hours can be plenty for some weddings, while others really do need 8 or 10+. I broke down what actually affects your coverage time, plus included a sample 6-hour wedding timeline!

If you’re currently planning a wedding and trying to figure out what you need, this one’s for you 🤍

A few things to keep in mind while planning your wedding day.

There are so many little decisions that go into planning a wedding, and some of them can have a bigger impact on how your day actually feels than you might expect.

You don’t need to plan every second. A little breathing room, a comfortable space to spend your morning, and time to actually take everything in can go a long way toward creating a day that feels like yours.

Swipe through for a few things to think about as you plan yours.

Wedding days almost never run exactly to the minute — and that’s completely normal.

Building a little breathing room into your timeline means a few extra minutes getting dressed, a conversation that runs long, or simply wanting to stop and take everything in doesn’t immediately put the rest of your day behind.

Your timeline should help guide the day, not make you feel like you’re constantly racing to the next thing.

When you’re choosing where to get ready, think about how the space will actually feel with everyone in it.

Natural light is great, but having enough room for your people, somewhere to keep everyone’s things, and space to move around comfortably matters too.

You’re going to spend a good portion of your wedding morning here. Choose somewhere that lets you settle in and enjoy it.

You’ve spent months planning this day, and when it finally gets here, it moves fast.

Give yourself moments where you’re not thinking about what comes next. Look around the room. Talk to your people. Stay on the dance floor for another song. Take five minutes alone together.

You don’t have to experience your wedding day like a checklist. Make space to actually be in it.

Family sessions are back 🤍

I’m so excited to officially be offering pregnancy announcement, maternity, lifestyle newborn, and family sessions again. Each session can be booked individually, so whether you’re announcing something new, documenting your growing family, or simply want updated photos together, you can choose the session that fits the season you’re in.

I’ve also created a Parenthood Collection for anyone who wants to document the journey from the very beginning. It includes a pregnancy announcement session, maternity session, and your choice of a lifestyle newborn or family session.

Something that was especially important to me as I brought these sessions back: I will not be sharing children’s faces on my website or social media. I still want to share the connection and little details that make these sessions so special, while respecting your family’s privacy.

And to celebrate family sessions being back, the first 5 individual sessions booked will receive $50 off. 🤍

Now booking throughout Savannah + the Lowcountry.

Ready to book? Inquire through the link in my bio and I’ll send over all the details.
