I recently had the honor of photographing Drew and Alex’s gorgeous Lowndes Grove Plantation wedding! When I met Drew and Alex for their engagement session, I knew I was going to love working with them, but what I didn’t realize was how incredible their wedding day would be and how much it would impact me, just being there to witness! I’m sure everyone there felt exactly the same.  Alex and Drew have been together since middle school,  so it’s safe to say they have been through so much together, but their relationship was made stronger by unimaginable loss and some really really hard times.  In spite of all that they have endured, these two spent their wedding day smiling from ear to ear and enjoying every second of it!  I remember watching and photographing Alex, as she danced with just about every one of her guests (loved that so much) She was filled with so much joy, and it struck me over and over again… this is how we were meant to enjoy these moments-  with pure, uninhibited joy! What a great day it was to capture!

Their Lowndes Grove Plantation wedding was perfect from start to finish!   A little rain came through just in time for the ceremony, but it didn’t phase these two lovebirds! Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. McNeil!
