Wedding Photography in Charleston

Lindsay was AMAZING from start to finish! Not only did she provide great professionalism throughout the whole process, but she made sure we felt so special and cared for. She even went so far as to do a complimentary engagement session for us! Her second photographer Mikhail also brought such fun and creativity. They even surprised us with drone photos on our wedding day! Lindsay got us our photos quickly and made sure we were comfortable throughout every session and had fun. Not only did she provide wonderful photos, but she brought genuine joy to our wedding day. We highly recommend her! - The Skinners

We had anniversary pictures taken in Cincinnati by Jacob Edwards. He picked out great spots for the photo shoot (especially for January in Cincinnati … lol). He guided us in our poses, encouraging us to try different things, but also asking our opinions on what we’d like to see. He was very punctual, affordable, and has a lovely personality - very easy to work with. He is a talented artist with great vision; we would book him again!

We feel so lucky to have worked with Victor and Lyra for our Charleston wedding on May 13th of this year! While we originally selected OneLife for their incredible photos, we could not have imagined how above-and-beyond Victor and Lyra would go for us. From the beginning, Victor was extremely easy to work with, communicative, and willing to answer every question I had. He was also flexible, modifying certain elements of their photography packages to meet our needs as a destination wedding couple. On the day of our wedding, Victor and Lyra worked as an amazing and dynamic team – They have a special ability to capture both candid and posed photos in such a beautiful way. They completed our family and bridal party portraits in an extremely efficient manner and were wonderful in trying to capture photos of our dog. They are also willing to put in the work to get that perfect shot (Victor went so far as to relocating a poorly parked golf cart to get it out of the background of our sunset photos!). Every time we turned, it seemed like Victor or Lyra was there, snapping away. Even more unexpectedly, Victor sent us 80 (yes, EIGHTY) sneak peek photos within the first week of our wedding! We were THRILLED to have all these precious moments in our hands so quickly. We could not have asked for a better experience or more gorgeous photos. We highly recommend OneLife Photography for your special day!

Words truly cannot capture our experience with Rhett!!! If you're getting married, you absolutely need to book him! Our wedding was nothing short of perfect, and honestly, a huge part of that is thanks to the incredible photos he captured. What really blew us away were the sunset shots he got of us on the beach at Wild Dunes! Seriously, they're breathtaking! We've looked at them a hundred times already, and each time we're just so thankful he was our photographer. Rhett made us feel so calm and comfortable, and it really shows in the photos! Beyond his talent, he was just a pleasure to have around all day. He's such a genuinely nice person and was incredibly easy to talk to! We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos and the fast turnaround time.

I had Richard Bell Photography on my list for years to eventually use for my wedding and when the time came, I was able to book them! I highly, highly recommend using them, they are the best to work with. Super sweet, easy to get a long with, and they take the most amazing photos. I am so happy I went with them for both my engagement and wedding photos. They were worth every penny!

Wow wow wow! This about sums up our experience with James at James Brindley’s Camera. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day James created a comfortable environment and we loved our time with him! James is so easy to work with and really took the time to get all different kinds of shots of the wedding, including so many I wouldn’t have thought to get. Our reception pictures are some of our absolute favorites! So many family members and wedding guests have commented how personable James is, and he was never too in your face with the camera. Sometimes we didn’t even know he was there! We chose to include a wedding video with our photos and James knocked it out of the park! It was exactly what we were looking for. Our photos and video are something we will cherish forever! You cannot go wrong with James! He is a gem!

Jolie is amazing! She captured our engagement photos and wedding day so perfectly. I had made a list of pre and post ceremony photos that I wanted with what people (which I highly recommend) and she made sure to execute so I did not need to think of it. She has an amazing eye for the scenery around her and capturing our colors. We got everything from getting ready with groomsmen/bridesmaids to exit at the end of the night. She was so easy to communicate with! She gave us an amazing sneak peak along the way and we're available the next day. We will cherish this day forever thanks to her!

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

Kate was absolutely incredible! From our initial conversation I knew she was who we were going to hire, she's so bubbly and personable and made us feel so comfortable leading up to and during our wedding day. I would describe us as awkward when it comes to taking photos but Kate helped us pose, told us where to put our hands and actually made us laugh in candid photos instead of fake laughing. The photos came out SO beautiful and natural I could not be happier with the results. She captured everything we asked and more. Thank you Kate and Shannon!

Carly helped me plan and execute the perfect surprise proposal. My fiancé and I are both so incredibly awkward in front of cameras, but Carly made us feel so comfortable and made it such a fun time. Her communication and attitude was so amazing and easy to work with. We are a LGBTQ+ couple, and she was very accepting and made us feel celebrated. On top of all that, her pictures ended up being way better than we could ever imagine! 10/10 would recommend!
