Capture Your Happily Ever After wouldn’t be what it is without the creative hearts behind the camera.
Jason, my husband and creative partner, brings emotion to life through videography and helps every client feel at ease.
Jamal has been part of our team for over five years, bringing steady energy and a sharp eye to our video projects.
Ryan provides stunning aerial coverage as our drone specialist and secondary drone operator, helping us capture the full picture.
I also work with a trusted group of secondary photographers (Rachel) when needed, especially for larger events and weddings. And sometimes — though not often — you’ll even find my son Benjamin by my side as a second shooter-in-training, full of curiosity and joy behind the lens.
Giving Back to the Community
Giving back is close to my heart. Over the past several years, I’ve had the joy of organizing and supporting annual charity events benefiting organizations such as Charleston Animal Society, Dorchester Paws, Meals on Wheels, and more.
I’ve also proudly donated my time and services photographing meaningful community events like Walk and Roll, supporting causes that uplift families and neighbors across the Lowcountry.
