Downtown Charleston engagement session with all the classic elements… live oaks, wrought iron, window boxes and street scenes with their sweet pup, Potato.

Loved this light-hearted engagement session in historic downtown Charleston. These two New Yorkers brought their laughter, easy-going attitudes and an appreciation for each other that translated into effortless images.

Engagement sessions are SO much more than engagement sessions. They are a double date with cameras. They are the easy peasy ice-breakers on a calm day rather than the BIG ice-breaker on the full day.

Strolling Charleston streets is never a hardship. It also happens to be one of the best ways to get to know our future wedding couples. Who they are as individuals and as a pair.

Fall engagement sessions that actually look like autumn are kind of rare in Charleston. We lucked out with a cool day that put a touch of pink in our bride-to-be’s cheeks and leaves in transition that framed our couple.

Charleston’s varied appeal and endless special spots between historic streets, parks, plantation and beaches make it tricky to pick just one. We incorporate walks into our sessions to mix in as many Charleston elements as possible.

Upon expressing appreciation for clothing color choices, we learned that it was Kyles’ favorite team’s colors.
