Introduction: Hi there! It’s an incredible experience to work with couples and provoke natural chemistry, capturing images that are above than anything else, true. I will never make your wedding about the photography, the photography will always be about your wedding. Your photos should never feel like a chore throughout your day, I always want you to be comfortable, relaxed, and most of all having fun. I also pride myself in being able to offer a wedding video option without requiring a separate team of camera operators. My complete package includes a 2-4 minute highlight film in addition to your photo coverage. These films capture the celebration, the vibe and the energy of your wedding day but without all the extra personel and equipment surrounding you and your guests. I happily provide photography for weddings and elopements of all sorts. My pricing is able to be tailored to any specifics of your wedding and reduced rates may be given for weekday and/or off-season weddings. All of my photos are delivered digitally via a downloadable online gallery. You will be able to access the high resolution files as well as retain full printing rights. Second photographer and rehearsal dinner coverage options are available.

We haven't received the photos back from my daughter's wedding yet, but he sent a couple of sneak peeks, and they were beautiful. He was very personable, easy to work with, and was always snapping pictures. I would highly recommend him. He was great!!! :)

We absolutely adore James! We could not have picked a better photographer for our event and he is going to continue to make a great name for himself in the industry. From the moment we met James we knew we had to choose him to capture our big day. James executed our vision perfectly. He is extremely professional and he is also an incredibly cool person who fit right in with our group and made everyone feel comfortable working with him. He was communicative throughout the entire process and could not have been more prepared. The day of our wedding he was very flexible and rolled with anything that we threw his way. When it got chaotic he kept his cool and orchestrated all the moving pieces and people. We woke up the next day to a handful of the most beautiful photos that he sent along as a preview and we cannot wait to see the rest. The way that he captures movement, light and all of the various elements produces photos that embody these special moments in an organic and breathtaking way. We are beyond pleased all around!

James was great to work with. We were able to take some great pictures downtown with the hour we had. We walked all around downtown and James had a great eye for locations to take some great professional pictures. We finished up around 5 on Sunday, and he had 32 edited pictures to me the next morning. What a great surprise. I would highly recommend James for any photography needs you may have.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is able to be tailored to any specifics of your wedding or event. Discounts and reduced rates may be given for weekday and/or off-season weddings.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started by shooting music videos and promotional materials for my own band while were touring the world. When the band broke up, I held tight to my camera and traveled every creative path I crossed. When I moved to Charleston in 2015 I got myself involved in the wedding scene by working as a second shooter for one of the leading Charleston wedding videographers. Once I learned the in's and out's of shooting weddings, naturally I began to branch out and photograph weddings on my own. It's been an incredible experience working with couples to capture their special day, and provide them with something they can cherish for the rest of their lives.
