We love traveling down to the coast for weddings.  It’s pretty normal for us to go down there 2-3 times a year for weddings.  Our first beach wedding for the year is the Yenderusiak wedding.

The wedding took place at Alhanbra Hall in Mt. Pleasant.  It’s an awesome venue that is owned by the city of Mt.Pleasant.  It is such a popular venue that brides literally camp out to be able to book and have their wedding there!  The site sits right on the marsh, and you can walk right out onto it, so it’s a great setting for pictures!

We get asked all the time if we will travel to this place or that place.  Obviously, the majority of our weddings are in South Carolina.  Although we do travel to Western North Carolina and Georgia for weddings as well.

Some places we cover, but are not limited too are Anderson, Clemson, Pendleton, Easley, Greenville, Simpsonville, Spartanburg, Travelers Rest, Duncan, Greer, Boiling Springs, Asheville, Hendersonville, Flat Rock, Charlotte, Clinton, Newberry, Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Lexington, Savannah, Fripp Island.  This of course doesn’t name all of the local cities that we cover, but gives a pretty general list.  We pretty much cover all of Upstate SC, Western NC, the Midlands, and everywhere in the Low Country.

We are willing to photograph in other places around to US as well.  Call or email us to get personalized quote for travel.

It’s Monday, so that means it’s picture of the week time!

I love Charleston!  In fact Stacy and I went there on our honeymoon.  We have since made many trips back.  We end up down there shooting weddings at least once a year, and sometimes we just go down there for a day or 2 just to go.  This image was made just last year when we were in Charleston to photograph a wedding.  It was an evening wedding, so we spent the morning walking around Charleston.

This image shows one of the famous carriage tours in Charleston.  The picture was taken right in front of famous Rainbow Row.  One neat thing about this image is that it’s now been published numerous times.  It was even published in a children’s book last year titled: Charleston, SC: Cool Stuff Every Kid should Know.  You can see it on Amazon.com by clicking here.

Be sure to check back every Monday for our picture of the week!

As much as I love our clients, and photographing people, I have tons of personal work that most people have never seen.  I’ve posted images here and there on old blogs, but most of our current blog readers have never seen any of my personal work.  Starting today, and continuing every Monday for the next 6 months I will post one image from my personal collection and talk a little about it.

Most of these images will not be of people.  For the most part they will be nature/landscape type photography.  I really look forward with sharing this work with all of our blog readers.

We are going to kick off the first week with this image of the pineapple fountain at Waterfront Park in Charleston, SC.

Charleston is a very special place for me and my wife Stacy.  We even honeymooned there after we got married.  I made this image one night while we were there with our kids for a couple of days.  This is Stacy’s favorite picture from Charleston and we even have it mounted as a large print behind our sofa in our home.

Make sure to come back every Monday to see the new image of the week!

This was a very special bridal portrait session.  When Berkley booked her wedding with us a year ago, she told me she wanted to do her bridal portrait in Charleston.  Fast forward to this past November, I happened to be in Charleston for a photographers conference, and we were able to schedule her bridal session while we were down there!  It worked out perfectly!

So we met at the beautiful Lowndes Grove Plantation. This was absolutely one of the most beautiful locations that we’ve ever shot at.  The weather was perfect, temperature was perfect, and so was the light!

To the pics!

As part of our photography workshop we set up some model stations to photograph some models. Due to the fact that I helped organize the event, and I was helping with other things, I only photographed one of our models.

When I met Lauren she told me she had never modeled before, and had no idea how she was gonna do. I’ll let you decide

Here is Lauren.

As I stated last night, I spent the first 3 days this week down in Charleston.  No matter how many times I have visited Charleston, I always manage to snap pictures of things or places that I haven’t shot before.  This time was no exception.

Here are a few images from my walks around town.

More church steeples to add to my collection.
