Myrtle Beach Photographers
Wedding, Family & Engagement
As a local Myrtle Beach photographer, I specialize in beautiful, candid and fun wedding, engagement and family photography for the Grand Strand area of SC. I love clean, crisp and colorful images that capture moments in a way that can only be done with skillful and modern techniques using the latest high-end photography gear. I only use prime lenses on full frame camera bodies which give my pictures a unique look you can see clearly in my galleries. I shoot every photography session personally and my goal is to always capture genuine emotions using a storytelling approach mixed with traditional posed portraits. As one of the best local Myrtle Beach professional photographers for over 10 years and as a native born in Myrtle Beach, I know the area well, and I do whatever I can to make sure my clients are happy.
Myrtle Beach Wedding Photography
Wedding Prices
As a Myrtle Beach wedding photographer with many years of experience, I understand how to create timeless images that will look as good in 20 years as they do today. I do this by using specialty lenses and skillful editing for true color and proper exposure. You will always see the details in a bride's dress in my photography, as well as the realistic and beautiful colors of a sunset.
Wedding photography prices range from $600 for small intimate beach ceremonies to $3400 for all day wedding coverage with two wedding photographers and a deluxe album. All packages include a beautiful online wedding gallery to share with family and friends as well as the digital files with a copyright release. I'm also an FAA certified remote drone pilot, I have a fun photo booth option available as a wedding add on, and unlike many photographers I'm licensed and insured to work in the Myrtle Beach City limits.
Myrtle Beach Engagement Photography
Engagement Prices
Myrtle Beach engagement photography sessions at beautiful locations like the Huntington Beach State Park, Atalaya Castle, Conway Riverwalk, Downtown Georgetown and more range from $400 during most months of the year to $500 during the summer months. Check back for off season specials as well. My engagement photography sessions are relaxed and fun and while I will suggest poses, I'm happy to try anything you like as well.
For your engagement session I use the same specialty lenses and skillful editing that I use at weddings, this gives the pictures a unique and timeless look. I also specialize in surprise engagement proposals and have many beautiful examples on my blog. All packages include 200-300 full resolution images to download and no limit on poses or outfit changes.
Myrtle Beach Family Photography
Family Prices
Myrtle Beach family beach photography and high school senior portrait session prices range from $400 during most months to $500 during the summer months. Check back for off season specials as well. These include hundreds of posed and candid pictures of your family enjoying the beach and other outdoor locations together. For your family photography I use the same specialty lenses and skillful editing I use at weddings for a unique and timeless look.
There are no limits on family groupings or number of shots taken, I typically take 200-300 pictures in total. I normally take the pictures about 1 hour before sunset at the Huntington Beach State Park using one of my included park passes, or I'm happy to come to your preferred Myrtle Beach location.
