Charleston Wedding Photographer | Lowndes Grove Editorial

bLOG CATEGORIEs + Search

Lowndes Grove is truly just a dream venue here in Charleston, South Carolina. One day while having coffee with Cayleigh of The Petal Report – we brought up the idea of a bloom-centered butterfly inspired Spring soiree! Yeah – kind of a lot! Haha. But as we began to discuss ideas of lace tablecloths, watercolor paper goods and a custom locally crafted wedding gown… we just knew that we had to turn this dream into a reality!

Along with an incredible team of vendors, we had the pleasure of photographing this dreamy editorial and it is now featured in the new issue of Charleston Weddings Magazine!

I’m Justin - a wedding photographer based in the Lowcountry, working throughout Charleston, Savannah, and wherever a great celebration takes us.

My work is rooted in storytelling with an editorial edge: romantic images that feel effortless, candid moments that never feel staged, and photographs that will still feel timeless decades from now.

Weddings move fast, and the best parts are rarely the perfectly planned ones — they’re the in-between moments. The quiet before the ceremony. The way someone reaches for your hand without thinking. The chaos and joy of the dance floor.

That’s what I’m always watching for.

Most days you’ll find me editing with Scout, Cullen, Max, and Bear at my feet, probably thinking about light, film, and how to make images feel the way a moment actually felt — not just how it looked.

I photograph weddings for couples who care about presence, style, and experience, and who want their day documented with intention… without turning it into a production.

You can expect a balance of timeless portraits, emotional storytelling, gentle direction when needed, and plenty of space for the day to unfold naturally.

I shoot primarily digital, with touches of 35mm film woven in for texture and a little extra soul. At the end of the day, my goal is simple:

To give you images that feel like your wedding felt.

If that resonates, I’d love to connect.
