Being a wedding photographer in Charleston, I've learned the best photos happen when you're not trying to be anything other than yourself.
I'm Kelsey and I primarily serve couples in the Midwest, but in 2026 I had my first chance to photograph a wedding in Charleston and fell in love with the town. So, in an attempt to travel there more, I have been offering special pricing to couples who want a Charleston wedding photographer with a focus on being present, capturing joy, and a love for details. With 9 years of wedding experience, I would love to document your Charleston wedding.
Kelsey was an amazing addition to our wedding. From the beginning she made us feel comfortable and let us be our authentic selves at the engagement shoot. She sensed our need for direction during all photographs and managed to capture some of the most authentic laughs and smiles. Kelsey seamlessly blended in when needed during the ceremony while still capturing every detail. I cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for a photographer for your next chapter.

The hard truth is that you spend just as much time with your photographer as you do your partner on your wedding day. It's incredibly important to me to establish a trusting friendship with you as you begin to plan your wedding. As your Charleston wedding photographer, my job is to pay attention, be present, and capture the hugs from grandparents, the tears from parents, and the laughter from your friends. Whether it's with 300 people, or a dozen of your favorite people, I'm here for it all.
First fill out the contact form found below and tell me all the things. Then we will set up a time to chat all wedding details via Google Meet. I will then create a customized package that reflects your wedding day. Once you complete the proposal, you will pay 30% of your final amount to secure your date, sign the contract, and then we are official! I then will take care of all travel responsibility so you do not have to worry about me at all!
I go into this in more detail during our consultation but the simple answer to this question is this: if you are not doing a first look, I recommend adding a second photographer. Luckily I have found a group of photographers I can choose from to contribute to your day!
I absolutely love getting to know my couple in front of the camera before their wedding. We can definitely chat about adding an engagement session. Your choices would either be flying me out to your home town, or you flying to mine. Adding an engagement would be in the $500 to $1,000 range.
Yes I do! I had the privilege of connecting with some awesome vendors during my stay in Charleston, such as planners, florists, videographers, and more.
