Brittany Bear Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Dorchester, SC
  • Offer

I mix editorial and documentary style photography for a wedding gallery that feels nostalgic and luxurious. I am here to make the never-shot-before-couple look like they belong in a magazine spread and I will capture candid, living, details and moments on your wedding day that will bring you back to that first touch time and time again. We are a husband and wife team that offers wedding photography and super 8 films. We also have a team of associate photographers for those on a budget.

I chose not to have a videographer because I knew the quality and experience that Brittany and her husband would give us. And she went above and beyond our expectations. I still to this day look at my photos daily and am in awe of them. She captured every moment of the day beautifully and I couldn’t be more grateful to her. She continues to be a part of my life and took our maternity photos. Brittany is not only involved with our biggest life events & capturing those moments but she made our experience so personal before, during, and after. I continue to have contact with Brittany and I love the relationship we were able to build over the years. Her prices are always fair for the quality, personally I think she could charge more because of how amazing her work is. But she’s fair and understands the expenses of life. I can’t wait to continue to work with Brittany and love to see all her work.

Cody is absolutely incredible. I had the chance to work side by side with him in Iceland for some vow renewals and was absolutely blown away. His personality, his talent, and expertise are one in a million. He brings so much joy to sessions and brings energy that genuinely makes you smile. He cares about his clients, his vendors and the time he puts into the magic he creates. I am beyond lucky to have gotten to work along side him and see his talent thrive. Would hire him time and time again.

At Big Day Story, we're more than just photographers and videographers; we're visual narrators. Our team's mission is to illuminate the beauty of your moments and weave them into a story that stands the test of time. With state-of-the-art equipment and an artistic touch, we ensure every shot reflects the essence of the occasion. Whether it's the subtle glances or the grand gestures, our lenses capture it all, while our editing suites transform raw footage into cinematic masterpieces.

I can't recommend Big Day Story enough! When I got engaged, finding the perfect team for photo and video was my top priority, and they went above and beyond. Big Day Story exceeded every expectation I had. On the wedding day, they made everything seamless and fun—even my husband, who isn’t a fan of being in front of the camera, got into it! The quality of their work was evident from the start, but when I received the final product, I was blown away. They handled both photography and videography for us, and the wedding highlight video was simply stunning. Everyone who has watched it raves about how beautifully done it is. Throughout the process, their professionalism and attention to detail stood out. I even received compliments from guests about how fantastic they were on the day of the wedding. Huge thanks to Sanjay and Bipin for capturing our special day so perfectly!

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous.

Whether it's a family session or your wedding, I'm not just your photographer, I'm your friend. Hair out of place? I'll fix it! Dress needs holding while we find a new spot to shoot at? I got it. Got something in your teeth? I'll check. But seriously, I'm there to capture your moments and make sure they flow as smooth as possible. Specializing in Portraits, Weddings, Events & Families. Nothing too small or too big for us to handle.

From the moment we booked Jenna Light Photo, their communication was perfect, timely, and well-executed. The quality of her work is truly amazing - it speaks for itself and left us speechless. Jenna is so easy-going and fun to work with on our wedding day, which helped make the experience a great time for everyone.

Hi! I'm Ashley. My business was built on a foundation of love and dedication. I've been photographing weddings for over two years and have the expertise you need. As a fully trained professional, you can be sure that no matter what your wedding day throws at us, I will be prepared and have a solution in mind. My smallest wedding package includes just myself, but my top two packages include a second shooter to capture every moment possible. I'm a hardworking business owner, with one goal in mind; client satisfaction!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me tell y’all about this amazing chic! She came in and saved the day! We lost our photographer about 2 weeks before our wedding, we knew it wasn’t the right fit for us. I reached out to Ashley Painter Photography and she made time in her busy schedule ( while finishing grad school, being a mom, wife, and running a business!) to travel 2 hours each way to capture our day. Not to mention working hand in hand with our DJ on a timeline of events to make sure she was in the right spot at the right time to capture the best shots! Our contract said allow 16 weeks for full gallery, she said “ girl, don’t you worry, I won’t make you wait that long” and here we are, 3 weeks later and completely surprised, she delivered a full gallery of the most amazing moments of our day. If you’re ever in the Charleston, South Carolina area and need some pictures done remember to call the best! It’s so much more than just snapping pictures

Carrie Patricia Studios 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Dorchester, SC

As a hopeless romantic with a fondness for all things vintage, I specialize in capturing timeless photos of the details and moments celebrating the love of your day. Utilizing natural light as much as possible as to not create an artificial mood, I consider my style to be photojournalistic, with a relaxed, natural feeling, even during formal portraits. Overly staged portraits and calculated setups aren't really my jam. After the party's over, my work continues, using post-processing software like Lightroom and Photoshop, ensuring you and your photos look their best and unique!

Awarded Best of Zola
Carrie was absolutely amazing to work with! We connected with her instantly and had a great time communicating with her throughout the entire wedding planning process, and during the wedding itself. She was without a doubt one of our favorite vendors for our wedding and we can't recommend her enough!

I have been a photographer since my freshman year of high school when I was given the opportunity to photograph the football team as well as to help with photos for the yearbook. I moved from Delaware to South Carolina in 2009, where I fell in love with the Lowcountry. I specialize in weddings, but I absolutely love capturing an engagement or family session as well! I like to approach any and all sessions with a photojournalistic eye. My goal is always to capture true and authentic moments between couples, families, and friends while providing my clients with gorgeous memories.

The fact we have the same last name made it for me. You’re amazing. Very accommodating and gave clear direction and perspective to the vision we imagined. Please book her for your wedding! You won’t regret it!! Thank you for capturing our special day we’ll cherish forever.

Marie Rodriguez Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Dorchester, SC

I got my first Kodak 110 camera in second grade and the rest is history. Yes, that dates me, but I have been in love with the photograph ever since. I love candids. Natural smiles, people having fun...raw emotion. I blend in. When you forget that I am your photographer and you let your walls down...the images I capture, to me, are magic. No matter who (or what) I am shooting, my goal is for you to be blown away. I want you to see what I see. I love Charleston and my Charleston clients but I am available to travel for your personal or corporate needs.

We’ve used Marie for photos starting with our wedding. Our pictures were so stunning and she did everything we wanted and more! We’ve also used Marie for family photos and a birth. She is great with children and so patient. Our birth photos of our son turned out beautifully. She is so heart felt and it’s echoed in her work

Once Like a Spark Wedding Co.

  • Serves Dorchester, SC

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!
