There’s something so timeless about Caledonia. Between the sweeping Spanish moss, romantic light, and serene southern charm, it’s the perfect backdrop for love stories—and JD & Sophie’s engagement was nothing short of magical.

Watching JD get down on one knee in this stunning setting was such a beautiful moment to witness and capture. The look on Sophie’s face, the joy in their laughter, and the way they melted into each other—it was pure love, frozen in time through my lens.

From there, we wandered the grounds, letting their excitement and joy guide the session. Caledonia gave us the dreamiest backdrops—every turn felt like it was made for romance. Their gallery is full of soft, golden light, intimate moments, and that unmistakable “just engaged” glow.

What makes this even more exciting? JD & Sophie just hired Alyssa at Stunning & Brilliant Events to help plan their big day—and if their proposal was this beautiful, I can only imagine how breathtaking the wedding will be.

JD & Sophie, thank you for trusting me to capture the very beginning of this new chapter in your love story. I’d be honored to continue the journey with you into your wedding day—documenting every detail, every smile, and every memory you’ll treasure forever.

Here’s to forever starting in the Lowcountry!
