We are Charleston Senior portrait photographers, specializing in analog film + digital photography for all graduates.

Charleston seniors, this part is for you:
You’re not boring. Your photos shouldn’t be boring either. To us, it’s really that simple.
As a high school senior, you’re excited. You don’t know everything that is coming, but you’re ready to live it. You have passions. You have great friends who see the real you. You are heading to college ready to learn, and share what you already know. You’re a little nervous. But you’re also ready to be fearless. There’s nothing about you that is typical, and your senior photos shouldn’t be either.
Whether we are capturing your senior portraits at The Battery in downtown Charleston, chasing the golden hour on the beaches of Sullivan’s Island, or utilizing our professional photography studio in North Charleston, our focus is entirely on your true self. By combining the timeless, nostalgic look of analog film with high-end digital precision, we create images that give you confidence. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill school photos; these are the portraits you’ll return to for a lifetime to remember exactly who you were at seventeen.
So give us a text at (843) 410-3076, and we’ll get started taking photos that show exactly who you are right now.
And Charleston parents, this part is for you:
When you look at your teenager, we know it’s impossible to not still see that little child you love so much. But now they are the young adult you raised them to be. A culmination of years of loving care, guidance, and maybe a few mistakes, they are on the cusp of graduating and forging their own path that you helped start for them. Pretty soon, they’ll be on their own. Now is the time to celebrate their beautiful spirit and immortalize this moment for your whole family.

When they head to college, what are you going to miss the most? When you look at them now, what are you most proud of?
That’s what we want to photograph for you, so even when they are away at school, you can still see them as the beautiful and strong young adult they are right now. The wall art we will create for you from your photos will allow you to feel your child’s presence in your home every day, even when they can’t physically be there (because they’re out doing great things and building a future for themselves!)

That’s our goal. If you want to see your son or daughter’s true self, you can count on us to take photographs that are as unique as they are.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear for my Charleston senior session?
Wear what makes you feel like you. We recommend a mix of casual outfits and one “elevated” look. Since we often shoot at Charleston landmarks or local beaches, consider comfortable shoes for walking between locations.
Do you offer film photography for seniors?
Yes! We are one of the few Charleston senior photographers specializing in analog film. We love the authentic grain and soul that film provides, and we offer it as an add-on or primary medium for your session.
How long does a senior portrait session take?
Typically, sessions last around an hour, giving us plenty of time to be creative.
Can we include my pet or hobby in the photos?
Absolutely. Whether it’s your dog, your tennis racquet, or your favorite vinyl records, we want these photos to reflect your actual life and passions.
