Professional Wedding Photography and Contemporary Lifestyle Portraiture in Conway, SC also serving Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas.
The sun was shining brightly today. So I thought I would have a little play with the camera phone!
Shadows make interesting images. I hope to do more “fun stuff” on a regular basis. :)
First up, we have “The Conversation” which turned out to be good news! lol
Second, we have the shin ding, party stomp, do-a-little-dance routine.
Hope you enjoyed the “Shadow Play”
Until next time,
James…peace out…
The clock was getting closer to the 1PM wedding start time and I arrived about 28 minutes ahead of schedule. I watched the snow melt away, it would have been nice to have had wedding pictures with snow covered grounds and all, but sadly it wasn’t meant to happen. And that is fairly typical here in the south, we can have six inches of snowfall over night, but yet have it melt away by noon that day!
There was one awesome thing that did happen though, and that was the wedding between Brandi and Jason! It was great seeing the love that they share for one another. Their wedding reminded me of my own wedding too. They had a ceremony only wedding, just themselves, just the pastor and his wife, just Gail and I.
It was lovely, just them getting married and expressing their love for each other, seeing their smiles and happiness and I was there capturing it! It could not have been any better, even if there wasn’t any snow on the ground!
Here are a few photos from their day.
Brandi and Jason, you both are beautiful and you had a beautiful wedding. May you have much happiness and success!

It has been awhile since I posted. Things seem to come and go in spurts and today is no exception! I have a wedding this afternoon and it also snowed last night!, which is a rare event for this area! We had about 5 inches of the white fluffy stuff, and it looked beautiful! I’m also super stoked for today’s wedding! It will be great getting some snow photos during the wedding.
A snow wedding in the south! Who wouda thunk it? Pretty cool if you ask me!
Here are some pictures from this morning, and I will be posting some wedding photos tomorrow. :)
Something a little different for a change.
I have had these images for a while now, and recently decided to do a blog post about them. A few landmarks from around here at home.
First up, we have the old Conway Post Office, it was built around 1807. It is now home to the Horry County Museum. While it might not be all glorious as other buildings, it has stood the test of time and a testament to the builders of the day.
Next is the Peanut Warehouse, during it’s life it has served as a tobacco and fertilizer warehouse and hence it’s current name, a Peanut Warehouse. It helped define this river community during the turn of the century. Today it is used as a venue for weddings and party’s and social events.
Here we have the Waccamaw River Bridge that will lead you to Conway’s main street. Built in 1937, it has become a landmark in Conway. When someone says “meet me under the bridge” you know exactly where they are talking about. Many events are held each year under the bridge, to name one, the Bluegrass on the Waccamaw, a great Bluegrass music get together. This photo does not show the section that extends a fair distance over land where events are held.
Next is the Horry County Courthouse located on 3rd Avenue in downtown Conway. Built in 1908 it had only one main section and in the 50′s, two side wings were added, and yet as time moves on, even more has been added. The majestic Oak trees, glorious Magnolias, and spectacular Azaleas, make this building really stand out.
I hope to capture more historic building and landmarks in and around Conway as time permits.
Thanks for looking.
He loves her. He loves her with every ounce of his heart.
Thomas has always taken care of Kerri in such a tender and caring way that it was no surprise, when after 6 years into their relationship he asked for her hand in marriage. So it was fitting for the two of them to host a tender and caring wedding with no detail overlooked.
Over one hundred and thirty guests traveled to Pawleys Island for their ceremony and the Pawleys Island Chapel served as a gorgeous backdrop. With her rotunda suite overlooking the grand low country marsh in Litchfield, Kerri stepped onto the the weathered wood of the boardwalk and into the sun. As the band set up in the Tara Ballroom at Litchfield Beach and Golf Resort, she shielded her eyes from the bright sunlight with one hand and waved to her father with the other. Much like a princess in a tower, Kerri looked down hoping to maybe get a sneak peek of Thomas, but before she could, Kerri’s bridesmaids beckoned her to don her gown and prepare for her sunset ceremony.
Im so calm right now, I mean I have no reason to be nervous because I know, I know there’s no one else but him. And with that, she and a group of girls traveled a busy low country highway to the chapel where Kerri blossomed into a Mrs. and shall continue to love Thomas tenderly for as long as they both shall live.
Thomas and Kerri, THANK YOU for everything. You treated us like royalty and always thought about our needs before your own, it was definitely appreciated and did not go unnoticed! We enjoyed your wedding and spending the day with you both!
Here are some photos from their day.
The party started at the ceremony, what a awesome way to start!
I know there are some Myrtle Beach or Conway brides that can do this! :)
Yesterday I had a blast with Amanda making some beautiful bridal photos! As such, I cannot post any photos from the day. But they will be online in the very near future after her wedding. She is definitely going to be an awesome bride…Amanda and Billy are a perfect couple!
It was a cloudy day and the sun kept playing peek-a-boo. We even had a scare that the rain was going to make an appearance during the photo sessions. Fortunately, it only made a slight sprinkling and then went away. :)
The clouds, the part time sun and yes, even the heat, made for an interesting and awesome day. We had a lot of fun and the memories will be for sure, to last forever!
Since this is a photo blog, I will post a couple of photos from yesterday. (not to worry Amanda, none from the bridals!) because, after the bridal photos were captured and safely stored away. Amanda and Billy invited Gail and I out for supper…How cool is that! We ate, had fun, threw back some ice cold brews, and talked about the upcoming wedding. A super ending to a spectacular day!
We went to this rockin’ “Roof Top Bar” called Carolina Ale House on Lady street in Columbia. The place was awesome!, the food was great, the atmosphere excellent, and the music ROCKED!! Overall, a A+ in my book. We simply had a great time!
Amanda,
Gail and I had a great fun filled day with laughs and we are definitely looking forward to your 2 day wedding ceremony, and the partying afterward!! ;)
The wedding will be a chart stopper, I can’t wait!
The Roof Top Bar
These Ale House Onion Strings were to die for!
Aww…
And one more Aww… :)
