Nester Family on Seabrook Island

The Nester family is one of my all-time-favorites!!!

I look forward to their family reunion on Seabrook Island every year! This is partly because I know what fond memories those cousins are forming during their time together. But it’s also because I get to go out and play with these six adorable kids!

Earlier this week we had another wonderful session together. It was great catching up with Suzanna & Jeff, who’s gorgeous wedding I had the pleasure of photographing oh so many years ago (age withheld to protect the innocent). I always enjoy discovering what new and exciting things Meghan & Tyler are up to. Hearing about Rick & Carol’s travels and adventures is always fun too.

But the best part is just goofing off and hanging out with those delightful grandchildren!!!  🙂

Muro Family on Isle of Palms

We had another EPIC Muro Family Photo Shoot the other day!!!

Susan and Greg have been vacationing on IOP each summer with all their kids and grand kids. It’s been such an honor to capture updated family portraits for them whenever they are in town. Watching their family grow and bond together has been such a joy for me. And I love how they always make ME feel like part of their family!

Happy 4th of July!!!

Lauman Family on Kiawah Island

Photographing Jen & Bobby’s beautiful wedding 10 years ago was the highlight of my year! I absolutely fell in love with these two. They were even featured in a magazine: https://chrisandcami.com/jezebel-magazine-2/!!!

Fast forward to yesterday, and the same emotions flooded back as I had the joy of photographing their beautiful growing family. With two adorable boys, and joined by excited grandparents, we all met up at the picturesque Ocean Park on Kiawah Island.

I had so much fun catching up with their busy lives. What an honor it is to still be a part of their lives after all these years!

John’s Retirement Roast on Kiawah Island

I haven’t laughed so hard, nor choked back so many tears, as I did at John’s wonderful Retirement Roast this weekend!

As a full-time professional event photographer in Charleston, I am so privileged to be invited into the most touching, most beautiful, most powerful, and most important occasions in people’s lives. Denise put on an AMAZING retirement party for her husband. All his closest friends and colleagues made the trek out to the Kiawah Island Club at River Course to celebrate this man, his integrity, his leadership, and his impact on their lives.

CONGRATULATIONS John on all your accomplishments!!!

Hines Family on IOP

Cami and I had SUCH a great time catching up with the Hines Family at their reunion on Isle of Palms! It’s been three years since our last shoot. The kids hava all grown up. But fortunately, EVERYONE (including the adults), has stayed young at heart!!! 🙂

Peltier Family at White Point Garden

The Peltier Family was an absolute DELIGHT to work with! We met up at White Point Garden, and enjoyed a fun little walk-about through the park and the surrounding old historic district.

Then, as I was packing up to leave, I got a front-row seat of some really cool Coast Guard training exercises just off The Battery!

Hoskins Family

Carrie is a child-hood friend of our friend Tonya.  (Many thanks for the kind referral, Tonya!)   I was looking forward to finally photographing Chris & Carrie’s beautiful family beach portraits with great anticipation!

Although it poured the entire afternoon, Carrie & Chris must be living right! The skies finally opened up just in time for us to have a beautiful session on the picturesque beach at Isle of Palms.  🙂  To see more of their photos, visit http://chrisandcami.zenfolio.com/p804066145.

We had so much fun! Their adorable dogs, Daisy and Derby, were wonderful to work with. And the rains started back up just as we were leaving. What great timing!!!

Stein Family on IOP

Every year, one family session stands out from the rest.  We always look forward to the annual Stein Family photo shoot!  You guys are THE BEST!!!  🙂

Tatjana’s Maternity Shoot

One of the joys of my job is celebrating life’s moments! It’s been such a pleasure to photograph Tatjana & Scott’s engagement photos…capture their beautiful wedding…and now create these beautiful maternity portraits for them. 🙂

CONGRATULATIONS Tatjana & Scott! You two are going to be the best parents ever!!!
