We hear it all the time... my wedding pictures are terrible, I had a friend do it and we have big regrets.
A wedding day is something you can never get back, and we do highly recommend you get yourself an amazing professional... but if that ship has sailed there are other options....
Below is an amazing couple who take your breath away because of how well they photograph. They're so sweet to talk to and have great conversation. When consulting with Lauren about a family session we continued back and forth about clothing choices, color schemes, and what would go best with her home. She sent me a picture of this gown and, while I thought it was stunning, I thought "Isn't that a wedding gown?" When she came in to the studio with her husband Cole she did tell me it was indeed a wedding gown and it was the one she wore two years earlier! I automatically congratulated them on their anniversary and asked why she wanted these redone. She told me she was disappointed with her wedding pictures and wanted them redone. She wanted something she could cherish and love forever. . . not regret. We had to include their best friend, Yeti, too!
While I don't photograph weddings. . . I always love a session with just the bride and groom to remember the big day. Charleston, SC is full of amazing venues to get married that it isn't often we think of studio portraiture. It's timeless and creates a very elegant look for your home. Having a session so intimate to capture the love between you two on a separate day from your wedding day is so special and meaningful. You have the big day with your entire family and friends and that's captured extravagantly at the venue and frozen in time. This is a smaller scale to capture how you two look at each other as husband and wife. It's intimate in the sense it isn't stressful as you're reading your vows and listening to speeches but you're remembering the vows and how they made you feel. It's the laughter between you two as you remember how the garter removal. This time and these portraits are just about you TWO and not an entire wedding party.
