It was an absolute pleasure photographing the annual Graduation Gala for the esteemed Medical Universary of South Carolina newest surgeons! This was my second year covering this amazing event. And I’m so glad I got to be a part of it!
Many thanks to Diana for hiring me, and for sharing these kind words with me after she received the photos:
“Thank you so much!! You were great and everyone raved about you from the event. I couldn’t be more pleased with your services and the beautiful photos.”
The best part of my job is meeting new, fun, and friendly people!!!
Last week I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing some new headshots for the Joye Law Firm. I’ve been working with their team for a few years now. And everyone they hire always seems to be so happy! I’d say this law firm must be really great to work for. Having a friendly work environment and a pleasant culture to be a part of makes for happy employees!!!
I used to photograph a lot of hotels. One of my favorite clients was the Naman Hotels chain. Unfortunately, they moved over to using an internal source for their photography needs. But this week, my old contact reached out and said they needed some updated drone shots of their Staybridge Suites property in North Charleeston…and would I be willing to help out!
I got there pre-dawn to photograph some dramatic shots during “blue-hour”. Then Dexter and I had a nice time catching up over breakfast. And later I came back to get some daylight shots on a beautiful blue sky day. All images were shot with the DJI Mavic 3 Pro, with proper authorization obtained from nearby Charleston International Airport.
It’s always a pleasure photographing for Premier Physical Therapy! Jill and her team are top notch!!! So much so that not only are we their photographers, we’re also clients who have used their services many times to rehab injuries over the years.
This week, Cami and I got to photograph several new members to their team…of both the 2-legged and the 4-legged variety! 😉
Who doesn’t like shiny new toolboxes, powerful truck lifts, and massive air hoses?!? Photographing the new Mt. Pleasant Fleet Maintenance Building recently built by Trident Construction was SO COOL!!! It was like being on a long lost episode of Home Improvement with Tim the Toolman Tailor. 🙂
Photographing The Cape, an amazing brand new high-end condo complex on Kiawah Island, was an absolute dream! Although the project is far from complete, I was able to get into a few of the units. The views are absolutely STUNNING!!! Many thanks to Anna and the team at Trident Construcion for this amazing oportunity.
We don’t have many aquatic centers in Charleston. I guess everybody goes to the beach to swim?!? And we have very few really nice public sports complexes. Most of the nicer ones are private. When the city of North Charleston decided to build the Danny Jones Sports Complex near Park Circle, there was a ton of excitement surrounding the project. Imagine my excitement when I was selected to photograph it!!!
The city of North Charleston invested $25 million to build the North Charleston Sports Complex after demolishing the Danny Jones Athletic Center over a year ago. The new sports facility has a 25-meter competitive pool, and a multi-use gymnasium for basketball, volleyball, pickleball and badminton. Visitors can also enjoy the five outdoor tennis courts, multi-use roller rink, soccer field and baseball diamond.
“Built for our residents, this facility underscores our dedication to enriching lives through comprehensive recreational opportunities,” Mayor Reggie Burgess says. “It signifies our ongoing effort to ensure that North Charleston remains a place where community and health go hand in hand.”
Many thanks to Caitlyn from the architecture team at McMillan Pazdan Smith, and Anna from the contractor team at Trident Construction, for trusting me with this assignment!
I’ve been photographing headshots for Elliott Davis for many years. Usually we meet at a park across the street from their office. Unfortunately it was POURING rain the morning we had scheduled for this round of headshots!
Luckily, I always carry my Flashpoint Li-Ion speedlights with me. So it didn’t take but 15 minute for me to set up a few lightstands, umbrellas, and speedlights to create a little “indoor sunshine”. Although it was a dreary day out, having my lights allowed me to still create bright, beautiful, and cheerful marketing portraits and headshots for the new team.
Many thanks to Holly for helping her coordinate everyone’s schedules!
It was an absolute honor photographing the Realtors of Distinction Awards Banquet for the Charleston Trident Association of Realtors!
The Realtors of Distinction award recognizes the top 10% of producing Charleston Realtors with 1 or more transactions who apply for the award, complete additional education requirements in the award year, and adhere to the REALTOR®️ Code of Ethics & LLR regulations.
CONGRATULATIONS to all the winners!!! And many thanks to Claire and Gary for inviting me to capture this amazing event!
Sometimes I get to photograph the COOLEST events!!!
Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing The Citadel Foundation’s annual Campaign Launch. It was an AMAZING evening! After cocktails on the lawn at Johnson Hagood Memorial Stadium football field, welcome speeches and toasts were made. A delicious dinner was followed by an incredible live band under the big white tent. Everyone partied and danced the night away!

Last year, I had the pleasure of photographing the Grand Opening of the new Rosen Hagood office. I had a great time and really enjoyed working with them. So I was extremely pleased when they reached out again to see if I could help them with some new marketing and branding photos for their website!
Usually law firms request fairly standard headshots. But the Rosen Hagood Law Firm decided they wanted something different! As a creative, I LOVED the concept they pitched. They were looking for something more casual, artistic, and classic. What better way to do that then with some timeless black-and-white, right?!?
Many thanks to Morgan for helping to coordinate everyone’s schedules and share their ideas…
I always enjoy photographing assignments for SMHa Architects. Their work is always so creative, while being practical at the same time!
This week I had the pleasure of photographing a newly renovated condo building for them on Folly Beach. The project is in a prime location, right on the beach, just steps from the amazing new Folly Beach Pier! With it still being spring, I knew the afternoon sun wouldn’t hit the front of the building until late afternoon. I love shooting during that “Golden Hour” part of the day anyway. Plus we were blessed with a gorgeous blue-sky day. So it worked out perfect!
Many thanks to Marie for organizing everything, and for trusting me with this assignment.
