Itinerary
One of the most photographed locations in Charleston. This famous row of colorful historic houses along East Bay Street creates a beautiful and vibrant backdrop for photos and is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks.
On this quiet historic street, I photograph guests with beautiful Charleston architecture, iron gates, and charming doorways. The soft light and classic homes create elegant portraits that feel timeless and very “Charleston.”
At The Battery, I photograph guests with views of Charleston Harbor, historic mansions, and the famous live oak trees with Spanish moss. This location creates dramatic, scenic portraits with a beautiful waterfront backdrop.
Church Street offers beautiful historic scenery and one of Charleston’s most recognizable church steeples. I often photograph guests walking along the street with the historic buildings and palm trees, creating classic Charleston images with a mix of architecture and greenery.
In the French Quarter, we capture photos with historic stone buildings, hidden alleys, and charming textures that give a European feel. This area is perfect for artistic portraits and candid walking photos that show the character of Charleston’s historic district.
Here we take photos near the iconic Pineapple Fountain and along the harbor. I capture relaxed and joyful portraits with water views, palm trees, and the charming park atmosphere, creating bright and memorable Charleston images.

We had the most amazing experience with Dennis! He kept us relaxed and laughing and in the moment the whole time. We will treasure our photos forever!
Dennis was AMAZING!!! We booked him for our engagement photo shoot while visiting Charleston. We have never had professional photos taken before and he made the entire process seem less and we were so comfortable. We laughed the whole time and have great pictures to cherish forever. He was also a great communicator and coordinating with him was very easy. 10000/10 recommend!!
We had an amazing photoshoot experience with Dennis in Charleston, SC! Our group of six friends was celebrating a milestone event, and Dennis made the entire experience fun, relaxed, and memorable. He was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful with posing, making sure everyone felt comfortable and looked their best. The photos turned out absolutely awesome—we couldn't be happier with the results. Dennis captured both the special occasion and the personality of our group perfectly. If you're looking for a talented photographer who goes above and beyond to create a great experience, we highly recommend Dennis. Thank you for helping make our milestone celebration so special!
Dennis provided an incredible experience with clear expert knowledge of the Charleston area. We received a plethora of top quality photographs to remember our engagement. Dennis is an excellent communicator and demonstrated mastery of his craft throughout our session with him. I would highly recommend him to anybody seeking any kind of photo services.
We had a great experience with Dennis. He has a great personality! He made us feel very comfortable and the pictures were amazing.
My husband and I stopped in Charleston, South Carolina while on a cruise for our 30th anniversary. I noticed an excursion for a photo shoot on Tripadvisor and decided it would be a great idea since we haven’t had pictures done professionally since our wedding. We had a great time with Dennis and he took so many pictures. It’s gonna be hard to pick our favorites. I would definitely recommend.
We have done our engagement shoot, wedding photos, and now maternity photos with Dennis. It is always great seeing him. He makes sure we are both comfortable and guides us on how to get the best photos. We love our pictures!
Dennis was awesome, as he filled me in on everything there was to know about Charleston as well as all the potential spots that would look the best. He then took us to several locations and went well-fully over the agreed upon time. This allowed our special moment to not get cut short in any form or fashion. Overall, Dennis made our experience extremely valuable.
We hired Dennis for our anniversary photo session, and the experience was incredible from start to finish. As a military veteran, I’m not always the most relaxed person in front of a camera, but Dennis’s sense of humor and jokes completely broke the ice. He made me loosen up and feel at ease, which allowed him to capture some truly genuine moments. He has a fantastic eye for detail and the photos turned out better than we could have imagined—he truly captured the essence of our relationship. If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, personable, and immensely talented, look no further than Dennis!
Dennis made our proposal so special. He made sure he knew all the details and that we were getting the best shots possible. I couldn’t recommend him more it turned out great!
