You’re glowing, you’re married, and suddenly your aunt is missing, your dad’s talking to the caterer, and your siblings are arguing over who’s taller. Yep…it’s family photo time.

When couples ask me about Charleston wedding season, I always start with the same honest truth: Charleston is gorgeous year-round, but timing makes all the difference for your photos.
