Elizabeth and Michael's Engagement Session
I love letting the couples pick their favorite images-it shows so much of their personalities. Yeah we did the cute cuddly shots, the romantic/sexy shots, the artsy shots where they look strait into the camera, eyes penetrating the viewers soul. But really the images below just capture these guys perfectly, they're the image I shot while pretending not to be taking pictures, the images in between the posed shots. Here are Elizabeth and Michael's favorites from their engagement session out on riverfront park. We all agreed the last one is our favorite.

An Afternoon With Benjamin.
I can't help but to laugh when I look at these. I like how they go from a very energetic, combed haired, clean little boy--- to a sleepy, sweaty, dirty little boy passed out in him moms arms by the end of the shoot. We had a fun time playing on this shoot and Benjamin's mom is very happy to have some pictures on her wall of Benjamin being Benjamin.

Caleb's Senior Photo Session at Folly Beach
So I asked Caleb "What are the three biggest things that you're into right now" his response "My Truck, My Music and The Beach"---nice, I am going to like this shoot. The dude says he has like 15 guitars at his house, crazy! Below is Caleb's Photo Shoot at Folly Beach. I don't know weather to call it a Senior Session or Musician's Headshots or Album Cover Photoshoot since we pretty much covered all three. Well we had fun as usual and shot some great stuff, and who wants to be labeled anyway.

The Greene Family's Lifestyle Session
Early one morning at the crack of 11 am I ventured over west of the Ashley river to the Greene's house for a family lifestyle session. As I pulled up the drive I was excited to see that the house had a fantastic view of the Charleston harbor from its backyard. The Greenes invited me in, offered me food and drink and made me feel as welcome as if I were part of the family. We made our way to the back porch where we spent some time talking about each others family history over coffee and diet cokes. By the time we had finished discussing our Charlestonian roots I had already begun shooting images for the Greene's laid-back lifestyle session. Here is a view of the photo-book we made for

Deborah Bordeau's Bridal Portraits
