The oak trees are always greener after a good rain.
That is something I like to remember when southern storms loom over one of my weddings. Especially when the aisle is a carpet of soft green grass canopied by ancient oak trees. Rain IS everything.
I will never forget Lauren and Jackson’s wedding day. It was stormy Labor Day weekend that preceded a hurricane. The timing of the rain showers and the pending storm was impeccable. We were so lucky with our outdoor portraits and had a beautiful historic home to retreat to when the rains moved in. With some magic from an amazing vendor team, ceremony seats were wiped off and ready to go for what might be one of the most breathtaking ceremonies I’ve seen. The hurricane skated off the coast of Charleston 5 days later while the newlyweds were safely enjoying their honeymoon in Saint Lucia.
Lauren and Jackson were married at Legare Waring House on August 31st, 2019. My biggest regret from this wedding was not being able to spend more time with this couple! I loved learning more about them as their stories were told over hand-written vows and toasts. There was so much more I wanted to hear, from their time at UGA to Lauren’s first half marathon. I can only hope this SVP couple make the visit to Charleston again soon! Till then, let’s reminisce on their beautiful wedding day!
Wishing Lauren + Jackson all the happiness in the world!
Special thanks to all the wonderful vendors who help create their perfect day!

"I cannot stop raving and telling everyone about all of our experiences with SVP!
First, I hired them for our wedding. Jacqueline was amazing with our engagement session, our various before pictures, the ceremony, and the reception. We had a 4-year-old and a dog in our wedding party and neither phased her one bit! After that amazing experience with you, we have continued to go back to SVP. From her holiday mini-sessions to extended family sessions, Jacqueline is there. With stunning and beautiful locations and the ability to feel out a group, you can see the love and joy she takes in her work with every camera click."

From our engagement photos to annual family pictures, we could not have asked for a better photographer to help us capture our precious memories. Jacqueline responds to communications quickly, is always professional, and our pictures always come out better than we imagine! We are so thankful to have found a photographer we love to work with year after year!"

"My family has worked with Jacqueline for years now!
"Our 12 people multi family photography session went off without a hitch.
Jacqueline was very professional and has a great eye. She is so friendly and easy going that we all felt comfortable and at ease around her instantly and that really shows up in your pictures. We had so many great pictures to choose from, both individual and family shots. I highly recommend her for any photography needs you may have."
