Ashley & Luke | Pine Knoll Farms Engagement Session

Ashley and Luke had the dreamiest engagement session at Pine Knoll Farms!! They will be tying the knot here next April and we thought it would be the perfect place for engagement pictures. We were trying to schedule their session before it got too hot, but we weren’t super successful… it was 93 degrees that […]

Hannah & Christian | St. Simons Island Engagement Session

I would like to start this post by saying it was almost impossible to pick favorites to blog. This day was just absolute perfection! It wasn’t too hot, there was a breeze coming through the palm trees, and just wait till you see that sunset glow!!! St. Simons was too good to us for Hannah […]

Never an Unloved Day

For the 23rd Valentine’s day in a row, I’m single. And before you start feeling sorry for me- I am 1000% okay with that! Because even though I’m “alone” this Valentine’s day, I know I have never lived an unloved day in my life. There’s a lot of stigma around being single and it makes […]

The Heirloom Bouquet

Have you thought about how you’re going to preserve your wedding bouquet? I’m willing to bet you read that sentence and realized you hadn’t even thought of that yet! That’s why I’m so excited to be partnering with The Heirloom Bouquet! I’ve been following them for the last year and I fell in love with […]

“Just Wing It” in Southern Bride Magazine

I will never forget October 13th, 2020. I was sitting on the couch in our living room that evening when I got the email from Southern Bride. I sat there for about 5 minutes with my mouth hanging open trying to form the words to tell my parents what had just happened. And then, instead […]

The New Jacqueline Aleace…

IT’S LAUNCH DAY. Wow, that feels surreal. I have been working on this new website and brand for MONTHS, trying not to let the cat out of the bag (although I did cave and tease you guys with a few sneak peeks, because I was just that excited.); but today there are no more secrets […]

Looking Back on 2020

No Rain. No Flowers. What a wild ride 2020 was. If someone had told me on Dec 31st, 2019, while I was ringing in the new year with one of my sweet couples, that the first year of this new decade would turn out to be a complete dumpster fire- I probably would have spit […]

Berry Inspired Bridal Brunch

I know it’s not Thursday, but how about a throwback Wednesday?? I realized that even though this shoot got published several times (One of my first times ever getting published!! Eeeek!!), I’ve never shared it here on my blog! So I wanted to go ahead and share some of my favorites from the shoot! First […]

Hopelands Gardens Bridal Session

Spring and summer were pretty slow seasons for the wedding industry (Thanks COVID). So many wedding and portrait sessions had to be postponed or canceled and I’m not gonna lie. It sucked. I’m not used to not having something to do for that long, so I texted some of my favorite Friendors and we pulled […]
