    THE BEST decision

    One of my first vendors I hired was Sean and Elizabeth. I am SO happy I did. They were phenomenal! Everyone loved having them around the whole weekend, and just felt like they were a part of the whole crew. Their work is incredible and they listened to exactly the style we were going for, they were just capturing everything and weren't forcing anything so the work reflects that and looks so incredible. I can not emphasize enough how much I would recommend hiring them!

    Why Hire 1 When You Can Get 2? Best Duo in the Game!

    We met with Sean + Elizabeth one time before hiring them on the spot! There are so many positive things I can say about them, but I don't want to lose you, so I'll try to list out the highlights! My now husband HATES photos, since he was little. My wedding planner recommended Sean + Elizabeth because A) they were a couple, so maybe Sean would help loosen my husband up and B) our planner thought that their "vibe" was similar to mine. The "B)" portion comes from what I told her - I told her I didn't want to do anything basic. I want my photos to be cool, creative, and different from all of the generic Pinterest photos you see. I don't need every photo to be bright or cookie cutter / rehearsed and I love candids.
    Ok, so we hired them. Fast forward to engagement photos; our package came with an additional sessions (engagement, bridal portraits, boudoir, etc). We live in Charlotte, NC and they freaking drove up 3 hours to shoot our engagement session near our home so we could have our dogs in them and do them around our neighborhood. Being that they don't live in Charlotte, I wasn't sure what to expect, but they took what I was envisioning, did their own research of the city, and executed beyond my wildest dreams! They made my husband and I feel so comfortable and it was a great session to get to know them on a personal level. I felt like I could 100% be myself and say whatever was on my brain and being around them was a total judgement-free zone.. it was so refreshing! They saw great photos against walls, in parking decks, under plants - things I would've never seen. They were so COOL, I even invited them to my husband's bday party that night because we had such an amazing day together (they coudn't come, but just sayin', that's how cool they are)!
    Lastly, the big day! They were of course on time on our wedding day and executed all getting ready photos and our first look seamlessly. These are such special moments, you have to have someone you trust to capture them and we trusted them without a doubt. They didn't even blink at my family dynamic (a few re-marriages, step siblings and whacky family members, ha!) and got every pre-ceremony shot to a tee. The ceremony photos are absolutely stunning - they crushed the angles, the lighting and didn't miss one shot. Lastly, the reception! They got all details photos before everything started, got every shot from every first dance, speech, etc. and lastly, gave me the best candids (100s!) I could've ever imagined. We've been married for over 3 months and I look at the gallery almost every day or so and each time I find a new favorite photo.
    I can't say enough good things about these 2, and how hiring a male/female duo, helped capture our day PERFECTLY. Elizabeth is born and raised in Charleston, so she's seen/heard it all and I consider her an expert of venues there, BUT also, their creative work from their non-Charleston (traveling) weddings was actually what hooked me in their portfolio they sent, so you do not have to be getting married in CHS to hire them! 1000/10 recommend, love them and will absolutely be using them again in the future (if my husband would be willing to take professional pictures again!) Hire them, you won't regret it!

    Hire them now.

    Hiring Sean Money and Elizabeth Fay is hands down one of the best things you can do for your wedding day. As a wedding videographer, I work with dozens and dozens of wedding photographers and I can say no one holds a candle to the energy, efficiency and caliber of service Sean and Elizabeth deliver. Working with them you'll not only get amazing photos, be relaxed and at ease throughout your day (they're logistical ninjas I swear), but you'll make a new pair of lifelong friends in the process. What are you waiting for? HIRE THEM NOW!

    Words cannot express how pleased I am with Sean + Elizabeth's services! It rained on my wedding day so I was particularly nervous about how my photos would turn out, but they're a dream. As a bonus, this pair is really fun to talk to and hang out with, and they blend in flawlessly with the atmosphere of the wedding so photos never feel forced or awkward. Would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a wedding photojournalism style for their wedding photos.

    We so love working with these two for our engagement shoot and wedding. Not only do they take beautiful photos, they are also delightful people! My husband and I felt pretty awkward in front of the camera, and they made us laugh, relax and feel totally normal while we twirled on a beach and kissed and cried in front of tons of people! Our photos are drop-dead gorgeous, and they totally nailed that non-cliche vibe we wanted, while still catching all the important moments of the day. This duo will go the extra mile, whether that means taking off their socks and shoes to catch pictures of you in the ocean and nearly losing their toes to frostbite in the process, or personally driving you to your venue to catch first-look pictures. We will treasure all of the candid moments they captured forever.

    Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay's reply:

    Wow wow wow, Emily, thank you!! You and Alan are the absolute best - so kind, so considerate, so FUN. We couldn't ask for more. We can't thank you enough for choosing us to photograph such a special time in your life. We will go barefoot in the ocean in February or drive you around any time, glitter and all :) We look forward to our next tequila shot at the Gaslite ;) Big hugs and best wishes!

    Sean and Elizabeth are the best! They are easy to work with, make you comfortable, are excellent listeners, and make you really comfortable. I was given advice long ago to spend the money on good photographers, and they are certainly worth every penny!

    There aren't enough words to say how happy I was with these two!! We used them for 3 events over two days (Indian and American style wedding) and they were very reasonable in price, especially compared to other photographers. But more importantly, Sean and Elizabeth were beyond amazing to work with on so many levels. First, they are hilarious and great people, which makes working with them a breeze. Second, they were super respectful of any requests, showed up on time and were very prepared. And most importantly, their work was phenomenal. I have had so many people tell me how amazing my photos came out, and ask specifically who we used. I make sure to recommend them every time. Very professional quality and worth every penny!! I would recommend them 100 times over!! Thank you!!!

    After meeting with and reviewing many photographers in the Charleston area - it was an easy choice to book with Sean and Elizabeth. From the moment I met with Elizabeth I knew the photographs would not only exceed expectations but that Sean and Elizabeth would make the whole process FUN. And they didn't disappoint on either :) There are so many things to "worry" about on your wedding day and when you work with Sean and Elizabeth, it takes one of those worries off the table. When they showed up on our wedding day we felt relaxed and easy going - knowing that even if something else went wrong, we were in THE BEST hands with our photographers. Thanks Sean and Elizabeth for giving us such amazing memories and photographers that we will cherish forever.

    These two aren't just incredible photographers, they're awesome people as well. They were a pleasure to work and spend time with throughout this process, even though we were planning from Europe. They were photo ninjas, beautifully capturing the moments of our day with such stealth and skill. The cherry on top was Polaroid snaps they spontaneously took and gave to us during the reception, an immediate token from the beautiful night they captured for us. You can't go wrong booking them!

    October 1, 2015. Charleston, SC. Yes, that’s right…the week that Hurricane Joaquin decided to roll into town. Check list for rain on your wedding day: 1) Embrace it! 2) Hire Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay. These two are the real deal.

    They are as wonderful to be around as they are talented. My wedding day flew by and the next day, I thought…I hope they got this shot, I hope they got that shot. Well, when I got the photos back, I saw they got all those shots and so many others…like silent glances between my husband and me, faces of our guests listening to toasts and a quick hug from my dad in the hallway. Their pictures really bring me back to my wedding day. For that, I am forever grateful.

    As strange as it sounds, they were like our best friends that day. Our guests were raving about our photographers and asking how I found them the next day. That's why I’m writing this review. Deciding which vendor to go with for photography was the hardest decision for my wedding. It was just a feeling that made us choose Sean & Elizabeth, their images made us feel something. From our first meeting, they felt like old friends. They’re sweet, funny, caring and laid back people...and we enjoyed every minute with them.

    I just can’t say enough about the pictures they produced. Sean & Elizabeth were able to capture the emotion of our day perfectly. Their pictures tell our wedding story better than any video could. They were an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire process. The best decision I ever made was choosing my husband. The second best was choosing Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay.

    Sean and Elizabeth are a fantastic, professional team. What we loved most was how comfortable they made us feel and how effortless their photography "sessions" felt. The finished product was also amazing, and you can tell that Sean and Elizabeth put a lot of effort into finalizing the photos. It's been a year and I still enjoy looking back through our photos from that day!

    Elizabeth + Sean were absolutely AMAZING to work with and so much fun!! We are so pleased with everything from them and the pictures really captured the personality of our wedding and rehearsal dinner. I would highly recommend them and my husband and I will definitely work with them again! <3 <3 <3

    Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay's reply:

    Kalee - You and Brock totally rock our socks off. We had waaaay too much fun with y'all and your wonderful families and friends! We are so pumped for you guys to continue building your life together, and can't wait to hang out again! xoxo

    Sean and Elizabeth are the absolute dream team.

    They are responsive, knowledgeable, professional, FUN, and so, so talented. They had amazing communication before, during, and after the wedding and treated us like old friends from the very first phone call. They were always a step ahead of us and never missed a beat. Elizabeth even stepped in as more of a friend than a photographer during a few bridal crises (such as when my veil was nowhere to be found as the ceremony was starting!) and they both effortlessly handled all of our crazy family dynamics. We could not have dreamed of more thoughtful or proficient photographers. They were reliable far beyond the call of duty.

    ...And the photos they delivered were STUNNING! We knew they were talented from looking at their portfolio, but it is quite overwhelming when you see their gorgeous, artful images in the context of your own special day. Our only regret is not hiring them for more time - for their photos but also for their awesome presence! We loved these two and cannot recommend them enough.

    Working with Sean and Elizabeth was absolutely great! They take amazing photos and are so much fun! I couldn't be happier with our experience with them and would absolutely recommend them!

    Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay's reply:

    Lucia, thank you so much for your kind words! You and Todd are such fantastic, laid-back, fun people! We totally see the love between y'all and its wonderful. We loved being part of your big day and meeting all your awesome family and friends. You couldn't ask for a better day, especially not when there just happens to be a jump castle in the park where you are taking photos and they let you jump on it in your wedding dress. Perfection. Cheers to you and Todd and the life y'all are building together! xoxo

    Sean Money & Elizabeth Fay were easily one of the best choices we made for our wedding. Their professionalism yet willingness to play set our minds at ease on the big day-- and we couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome of our photos. As my husband and I both work in television, visuals are important to us. We struggled with finding a photographer that met our standards until Sean & Elizabeth were recommended to us. Their editorial and edgy style won us over immediately and set a gold standard for wedding photographers across the country, and lucky us, they happened to be located in South Carolina!

    My husband and I absolutely loved working with Sean Money and Elizabeth Fay. They are so talented and captured our wedding beautifully. They're both very easy-going, super friendly and genuine people. They made me and Adam feel so comfortable throughout the entire day and that was so important to me. I would recommend these two a million times over!

    Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay's reply:

    Erica - We have way too many wonderful things to say about y'all, and we feel so fortunate that y'all chose us to be there with you for all the wedding awesomeness. You and Adam had a dream-come-true wedding, and we love looking at it in the pages of Unveiled magazine right now :) Can't wait to see y'all again, whether in Charleston or Nashville. xoxo

    I knew that I wanted this duo to be my photographers from our first meeting. They were willing and excited to be as crazy as we are with our engagement and wedding photos. We not only have fabulous pictures of our wedding day, but we also made some pretty great friends in these two.

    Sean Money + Elizabeth Fay's reply:

    Caroline, where do we start!? It is true that we totally clicked on our first meeting, which turned into more hangouts, followed by an engagement shoot including boat rides, animal masks in bars, a wonderfully lovable great dane, a paint war and champagne shower, and lastly an epic wedding day. We have enjoyed all of our time spent with you and Abe, and look forward to many more hangouts! Clients-turned-friends - this is why our job is so great. xoxo

    When my future husband and I began the search for a potential wedding photographer it was so over whelming! We met with several companies and individual photographers and were convinced that we would never find anyone who really understood us. All of that changed when a friend suggested Sean and Elizabeth. We met with them for drinks and loved them instantly! Sean and Elizabeth are so passionate about their craft and above everything, they put their clients needs and wants first. They work so well together and they both add so much creativity and insight into their work. We chose to do an engagement shoot with them which required travel. They were on time, happy to be there, and took amazing photographs. Through out the wedding planning process, they were always available to answer questions and help guide us. On our actual wedding day I did not have a single worry because I knew we were in such good hands. Our wedding photographs are so special and beautiful and we were honored to share our special day with such a fabulous pair! Sean and Elizabeth are more than photographers, they are artists that will bring your own ideas to life. We couldn't have asked for a better duo to share our special day with!
