Stokes Kia of Goose Creek for Glick Boehm Architects

It was a beautiful fall day to be out photographing. And I was lucky enough to be covering the architectural design of Deena Hamdan of Glick Boehm Architects!

Arriving at Stokes Kia of Goose Creek, I began with some drone shots to establish the location. The blue sky and puffy white clouds really helped make for some beautiful aerial images! By the time I landed, Deena had arrived. She had already cleared with the owners and staff that we would be there to photograph GBA’s uplift of the building. Everyone was so helpful, and happy to help keep folks out of our shots while we worked. It was neat to have Deena there, the architect behind the project, as she pointed out unique and interesting facets of their design to me.

Many thanks to Deena and everyone at GBA for trusting me to preserve all their beautiful work on this amazing re-design!!!

Wildcat Senior Living Site Development

Wildcat Senior Living is coming to Cane Bay Plantation in Goose Creek! This will be an all-inclusive Independent and Assisted Living facility, opening in 2021.

Yesterday I had the honor of photographing aerial drone photos of the property site under developement. It’s in a beatufiul area near a main intersection at the back of Cane Bay Plantation. There are already several other excellent residential areas that are filling up quickly in this area. So it’s going to be an exciting place to live with a lot going on!

Many thanks to Jordan & John at Live Shephard for bringing me on board for this project. It was a pleasure serving you gentleman and capturing your vision!!!

Alexx & Joseph at Wesley United Methodist Church

CONGRATULATIONS to Alexx & Joseph!!! They may have to hold off until the fall to have their big reception. But instead of cancelling their wedding, this beautiful couple decided not to let the corona-virus keep them from becoming husband and wife!  🙂

It was such a pleasure being there to capture Alexx & Joseph’s vows for them. They are such an adorable couple!  The only people present were the 5 family members and myself. I took all the proper precautions to maintain social distancing and practice safe hygiene. So there was no chance of spreading the virus. Yet we could all be there to celebrate with them as they enjoyed their special day, joining together in holy matrimony.

After the ceremony, Alexx’s dad (who owns Midway Tours Limousine Service) drove them to several picturesque spots near the church for some photos. It was a gorgeous day out. Joseph was looking sharp with his sweet-grass rose for a boutonniere. And Alexx was absolutely stunning in her Cinderella-style wedding gown!

Alexx & Joseph, we wish you all the best for a wonderful life ahead as you begin your new journey together!!!

Photographing from the Sky

Since becoming FAA Certified for commercial drone photography, I haven’t had as many opportunities to go flying as I used to.  I can accomplish most of my aerial photography requests with the drone. But last week I had an assignment for Trident Construction that was going to require flying above 400 ft, and flying too near the Charleston International Airport…both of which were beyond the legal limits of commercial drone flight.

So I reached out to Hayden and Kris at Holy City Helicopters. Hayden is not only a great chopper pilot, but also an avid photographer. So he “got it” when it came to waiting for the right weather and the right light. Finally, a beautiful blue-sky day opened up to us! Kris was my pilot that morning.  He did a fantastic job of getting me good angles of the projects I needed to photograph.

It was a pleasure flying and photographing with these fine gentlemen. I highly recommend calling Hayden if you’re interested in photographing from the sky!
