B.W. Mitchum Trucking Co.

For almost 70 years, B.W. Mitchum continues to be a leader in customized intermodal and domestic transportation, while still maintaining the core principles you’d expect from a 3rd generation family business. Ronnie, who has steared the ship since 1990, takes great pride in the reliable and personalized customer service they are known for. The company provides exceptional logistical support, transportation, warehousing, transloading, and brokerage services to their industry. They now operate multiple terminals with over 200 trucks!

I’ve known Ronnie & Jan for many years. I mentored Jan, who is an excellent photographer in her own right. I photograph family portraits for them. And I even photographed their daughter’s wedding! So when their daughter, Brooke, reached out to ask if I would help capture some new and updated headshots and team photos for them to use in a new website they were building, I was absolutely delighted!!!

Seamon Whiteside New Greenville Office

One of my favorite parts about being a professional photographer for so many years is the long-term relationships I’ve built with my clients. One of my favorites is the engineering firm of Seamon Whiteside!!!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing some marketing photos in their brand new Greenville office! Seamon Whiteside has offices all over the state. And they’ve had one in Greenville for years. But they just moved into a spacious new facility that they helped design from the ground up. While I was there, I also photographed headshots for several new team members.

We all had a BLAST and came away with a ton of fun photographs!!!

Hallie Hill Animal Sanctuary for Trident Construction

Cami and I are both huge animal-lovers. So when my friends at Trident Construction invited me to photograph the brand new state-of-the-art facility they had just completed at the Hallie Hill Animal Sanctuary, I jumped at the chance!

It’s the season of giving…and adopting! Check out https://www.halliehill.com/ to make a donation…or make an appointment to meet some of their four-legged friends. Who knows?!? You just might find that perfect pet you’ve been looking for, and give them their forever-home!

Honda True on Kiawah Island

It was a pleasure working with Lee  at Experience Holy City on Kiawah Island this week!

I was photographing all the beautiful details and decor she had created for Honda True, who was holding their annual sales meeting here on Kiawah Island. The first night was for their Welcome Reception in the Terrace Ballroom at The Sanctuary. The second night was at Mingo Point.

Honda True also had me photograph and print couple’s portraits at the Mingo Point Oyster Roast. Since it’s been raining all week, we had to get creative! I had the couples standing just underneath the covered patio area, with the marsh trees draped in Spanish Moss as the backdrop. Since it was a pitch black night, I placed 4 Flashpoint speedlights under the trees (covered in ziploc bags to protect them from the rain), with amber gels on them to give the lights an orange glow. The couples were lit with a Flashpoint eVolv 200 in an octabox. While I photographed the couples, my good friend Gary was making the prints on his DNP DS40 printer. Everyone loved the instant gratification of receiving their portrait that night!

Many thanks to Lee and Amber for making everything run so smoothly!!!

Premier Physical Therapy

It’s always a privilege to capture the annual Christmas Card photo for the amazing team at Premier Physical Therapy!!! Plus we got a few fun ones of their therapy dogs while we were at it. 🙂

April Curci for Carolina One Real Estate

I first met April about 5 years ago when she first moved to Charleston from Arizona. She had joined a different commercial real estate team here in Charleston…and I was photographing their headshots at the Old Cigar Factory.

April went on to make a name for herself in the industry. She ultimately joined the team at Carolina One, which is the largest real estate company in the region. She feels at home and loves working there!

April will be leading the annual Market Forecast Meeting for the Charleston Trident Association of Realtors next week, and needed a new headshot for her on-screen bio. Plus it was time to update her marketing photos anyway! So we met up downtown for a fun walk-about, capturing a variety of new shots for April that incorporated all of Charleston’s charm as the backdrop for her session.

CONGRATULATIONS on all your accomplishments in such a short amount of time, April!!!

Headshots for Seamon Whiteside

I was glad it wasn’t quite as hot and muggy as it’s been all summer. It meant that my subjects weren’t “melting” during this morning’s photo shoot!!!

Seamon Whiteside had asked me to photograph some updated headshots for new members that had recently joined their team. Arriving a few minutes early, I scouted their courtyard for some nice backgrounds with beautiful light. As each person came out to meet me, we went through a variety of poses on several differnt backgrounds so they had lots to choose from. Everything was photographed with the Nikon Z9 + Nikkor 70-200 f2.8 Z. I had an off-camera flash with me in case I needed it. But honestly, the natural light was so nice I never even turned it on!

Many thanks to Lia and Denise for helping coordinate everyone’s schedules!!!

Michelle & Marquett

I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Michelle & Marquett over the years! We met up again last evening to photograph some new headshots and couple’s portraits. They are such an AMAZING couple and so much fun to work with!!!

Seamon Whiteside Projects in Mt. Pleasant

I had to dodge a couple rain showers. But in between the drops of “liquid sunshine”, I had beautiful skies and gorgeous light for photographing several new projects for Seamon Whiteside!

I started out at the new Carolina Park Recreation Complex with their pickleball, baseball, soccer, and other sports fields. I then made my way over to the Lucy Beckham High School where SW had expanded and remodeled their baseball field. Next was the new Legacy Patriots Point Apartments, which is already 30% sold out! What a great location, with stunning views of the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge. Finally I zipped out to Isle of Palms to photograph the pool area and surrounding landscaping at the Sweetgrass Inn at Wild Dunes Resort.

Many thanks to Lia for organizing and coordinating with the various locations to ensure access. Seamon Whiteside truly does an amazing job on all the assignments they tackle. It’s an honor to be able to photograph these projects for their portfolio!

Bridge Commercial Headshots

It’s been an honor to work with Bridge Commercial over the last decade or so.

Yesterday I had the privilege of photographing updated headshots for them. The scheduling was prompted because they had just hired Morgan, the latest member of their growing team. But of course we opened the shoot up to anyone who wanted an updated headshot. Several folks came down for updates because they have a different hair style, lost some weight, etc. What a great pleasure it was to see Executive Vice President Hagood come down for an update! Hagood was one of the first people I photographed for the firm!!! He hasn’t changed much…just a little grayer and wiser like me. HA!

Many thanks to Kennedy for organizing everyone’s schedules and making this happen.

Headshots for the Joye Law Firm

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!!!

Premier Physical Therapy

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!  😉
