Courtney and Dave - wedding

Family weddings are tough - you want to be involved and enjoy the day as much as everyone else, but you don't want anyone else shooting the photos. So we accomplished both for my step-sister Courtney's wedding! It was a wonderful Christmas week celebration, and we are thrilled to finally have a Palmetto Bluff wedding under our belt!!! Weather and natural beauty at its best! Courtney and Dave could not have looked happier and are just a joy to be around - they treated all their guests to a rustic-elegance evening with all the Lowcountry trimmings. Ceremony at the Chapel in the Village of Palmetto Bluff with reception to follow at the Lake House...many happy wishes to two very special people!

Stephany and Andy - wedding

Haven't had a December wedding in awhile! It's so nice to see Christmas trees in the church for a ceremony. We had the pleasure of capturing Stephany and Andy's special day...who made the journey from Norfolk, Virginia to tie the knot in Charleston at the Unitarian Church, and reception to follow at the Peninsula Grill - Planter's Inn. A small, intimate affair that was done just beautifully...congratulations!

Niki and Guillermo - wedding

Niki and G have become dear friends of ours...during the year we spent getting to know them, doing engagements and preparing for their big day was more like building a friendship than a client-vendor relationship. Their wedding was as beautiful and fun as we imagined! Ceremony held at Christ Our King Catholic Church in Mt. Pleasant, with reception to follow at Founder's Hall at Charlestowne Landing. Mosaic handled the catering, bar and decor - they were outstanding! And DJ - top notch! He was fantastic - DJ Natty Heavy.

Sara and Derek - engagements

Was wonderful to finally meet Sara and Derek after months of coordinating to shoot their engagements...you know...logistics...tough when you live in Virginia and the shoot is in Downtown Charleston! WOW - fab in front of the camera! Sara's dancing background shined in the photos! We will be shooting their wedding up in Richmond next fall!

Melissa and Ryan - Wedding

Another lovely Virginia couple for us on this sunny Saturday in October. Melissa and Ryan came down to Charleston last winter for their engagement shoot, and ever since we had a lot of reasons to look forward to their wedding!! Melissa is good friends with a gal whose wedding we shot 3 years ago - Katie Barnette Whisenant...and she would be at the wedding along with Melissa's boss - one of South Carolina's representatives in the US House. This lovely day was planned and executed by Stacey and her team at Red Letter, with ceremony at the Circular Congregation Church and reception to follow at the Mills House.

Reagan Victoria - newborn portraits

It's so wonderful to get calls from repeat clients, but especially when it's from a couple whose engagements, bridals and wedding you have shot - and now they would like their first child photographed! Denise and Andy have become very special to us as most folks do...so meeting their beautiful baby girl, Reagan Victoria, was an absolute joy!!

Sasha and John - wedding

Ever since a very exciting and memorable engagement shoot, we have been looking forward to Sasha and John's wedding day - not too mention being in the company of two Filipino families makes Rod a very happy camper - so much to talk about...and we will take up John's mother's offer of coming to dinner sometime for a good Filipino meal! Reception and ceremony were both held on this glorious sunny day at the Doubletree Hotel on the Market in Downtown Charleston. It was just a perfect day all around!

Blair and Carter - wedding

Blair and Carter - what can I say...both extremely attractive and some of the nicest people you can ask to work with! They live in West Virginia and selected Charleston for their big day! A beautiful day for a wedding at the William Aiken House - first time there with no tent - it was gorgeous! Emmy and the gals from Peacock Events ran a lovely event, with another great cake from Elaine's Events.

Kara and Chris - wedding

The blending of Hawaiian culture and Southern tradition made for a gorgeous and joyous wedding for Kara and Chris. I can't imagine planning a wedding from San Diego, CA without a coordinator is an easy task, but these two pulled it off flawlessly! Ceremony took place at Summerall Chapel at The Citadel, with reception to follow at The Wickliffe House...and with DJ Rob Duren in the house, you know it's going to be a great party!
