Jennifer and Brett are full of that contagious kind of laughter… plus the smirks, giggles and cute jokes. They don’t take themselves too seriously, so the result is a truly laid back affair where everyone has fun. Jennifer laughed going down the aisle! They laughed as they exchanged rings. Brett smirked and scratched his head all silly like when he realized they’d been pronounced “husband and wife”. You know, I hope their children and grandchildren look back on these wedding pictures with a sense of wonder at all the joy shared by these two. Let’s be real now. There wasn’t just a bunch of kissy kissy going on. Jennifer and her girls can tear up a dance floor! Oh, my!! Darrell of The Connellys set up his very popular photo booth on the grounds for added entertainment. Jennifer might have been in 99% of the pictures. The camera loves her and she loves the camera! Well, that is easy to see below. Jennifer and Brett, I wish you continued happiness and a long life...

When I look at my 2011 calendar, I am overwhelmed with this huge sense of gratitude for the clients I get to work with this year. Happy, fun, artistic and altogether delightful people. This wedding….well, this couple…they truly kicked off my season in a glorious way. First of all, the weather was so unbelievably warm and sunny….it was on the miraculous side. I mean, perfect weather in February? So God smiled down on them from the start. And speaking of smiles, Jennifer gives them out freely and liberally to everyone. That would have to be one of the first things you’d notice about her. She glows all of the time, not just on her wedding day. So….Jennifer never gave me a list of pictures, not one request or order. She just had the time of her life and let it all unfold to be documented naturally and easily. Can I get an “AMEN”?! : ) It’s not just Brett and Jennifer that made this wedding so special. We had our dream team, a.k.a. Luke Wilson Special Events, involved from the day they were engaged. Luke and Megan did what they do so well, that is, make it look effortless. But even better, since they were such good friends of the bride, I got to photograph LWSE breaking it down on the dance floor later that evening. It was a treat!! Maybe they’ll forgive me for posting all those dancing shots later. All the event rock stars were in attendance. The floral designs were by Katie Bell of Timeless Designs; Fish catered the event; Lowndes Grove served as ceremony and...

Jennifer is back on the blog with her bridal portraits, soon to be followed by her wedding photos, all shot on location at beautiful Lowndes Grove. The setting is perfectly classic Charleston…a waterfront plantation, surrounded by live oaks, and lots of historic grandeur. Jennifer has such a classic Southern look, from her dress to her hair to her pearls and garden roses. I couldn’t imagine a better place to showcase all that prettiness. We managed to snag a slightly cool (occasionally sunny) day in February for these portraits, which is no small miracle during the rainy week we’d had. Many thanks to the coordinating skills of LWSE, the staff on hand from Lowndes Grove, the bride’s bouquet from Timeless Designs, and Jennifer’s hair and makeup by Stuart Laurence...
