Charleston Elopement Photographer
Intimate, micro or mini elopement wedding photographer in Charleston, Kiawah and Lowcountry.
Gallery below with a hodge podge of elopement goodness inspiration and resources.
Each elopement has a unique flow. Some elopements are getting ready, vows, champagne, stroll and a slice of cake. While others are vows and some lovely imagery. We have favorite officiants and ministers in town that personalize a heart-felt ceremony. Others have done the legal bit in their home town and choose to speak their words one-on-one. If you are familiar with Charleston, let us know how you see the day unfolding. If you are needing direction, we are happy to learn about who you are and then offer some suggestions. Downtown Charleston elopement photography resonates with our couples that are pulled towards historic streets, buildings and vignettes. Kiawah beach elopement photography is probably the next favorite to include the green lushness and ocean vastness. We hold a special love for elopements as that was our choice years ago.
Our starting point is to decide on your Charleston elopement location. Charleston SC has a range of options from beach, river, historic downtown or enveloped in nature.
On the oceanfront, might we suggest a villa on Kiawah or luxe accommodations at Sanctuary hotel. The beach is pretty wide so there is usually a private spot. If you love a semi-salty beach vibe with delish food and fun bars…Folly Beach is your beach. There are rentals for every size group and a boutique hotel on the bay side, Folly Regatta Inn.
In historic downtown Charleston, we are highlighting boutique onsite experiences complete with privacy and a step away from classic Charleston city scenes. Wentworth Mansion is dog friendly and known for it’s twirling staircase to the rooftop Cupola. Planter’s Inn offers privacy while being smack dab in the middle of everything and it’s coconut cake is a must. John Rutledge House Inn with it’s grande suites and balcony setting for vows on Broad Street. Charleston Library Society is another gem if you are a book lover.
Amongst the trees, Angel Oak on Johns Island is a landmark location to say vows under majestic branches. Charles Towne Landing is approx 15 minutes from downtown in West Ashley with stunning with an alley of oaks, water elements and exploring what feels like secret gardens. Middleton Place and Middleton Inn is approx 30 minutes from downtown Charleston with a quiet feel of nature infused goodness. It is an eat, stay, wonder and say your vows all-in-one.
Eloping in Charleston can look like whatever you want, and should be as unique and authentic as your relationship.
Occasionally what starts as an elopement evolves into a mini or micro wedding. Our mini and micros weddings generally have a guest count of 15-30 guests.
We also offer an intimate celebration capture for couples with approx 50 guests.
Including Real Wedding Blog Post to give you an idea of possibilities.
