Pawleys Island Photographer
Ryan Smith Photography Bride and groom on the marsh boardwalk – Pelican Inn – Pawleys Island
Thank you for visiting Ryan Smith Photography. Ryan Smith has been one of the best local Pawleys Island, SC photographers for over a decade. While I live in the nearby Myrtle Beach area, well over half of my photography work focuses on Pawleys Island. There are so many beautiful nearby locations for photography including the Huntington Beach State Park, Brookgreen Gardens, Pawleys Plantation, the Pawleys Island Chapel, Caledonia, marsh boardwalks and much more.
For my photography style I love clean, crisp and colorful images that uniquely capture your happy family and wedding moments. I use skillful techniques for proper lighting, color and exposure. Including using only high end prime lenses and off-camera studio style strobe lighting. For example, you will see the beautiful colors of the sunset and the intricate details of a bride’s white wedding dress in my pictures. My goal is to always capture genuine emotions through a mix of fun candid and posed portraits. I also do whatever I can to keep my excellent reputation .
My wedding photography packages for the Pawleys Island, SC area start at $1000. My family and engagement photography is also very reasonable priced starting at $350. Check out a few of my favorite Pawleys Island pictures below, and visit my full galleries and pricing pages for more.
