We photographed local Charleston entrepreneurs Mike Ray of Normandy Farm Artisan Bakery, David Merritt and Jaime Tenney of Coast Brewery, Nicole Rager of Nicole’s Nutty Goodness, and Hank Weed of Caribrew Cold Press Coffee for an article in the Charleston Scene by Matthew Godbey. Owning your own business is hard work, and it was extremely rewarding to photograph such talented and dedicated individuals. They have all made their dreams their own reality, which takes a lot of courage and possibly a little bit of crazy;). It is really a pleasure living in Charleston where so many small businesses live and thrive. Here’s to local business and local talent!

I am gearing up for another Studio 101 workshop at the Charleston Center for Photography. It will run Saturday August 14th, and it is a great opportunity to get in introduction to the world of lighting inside a studio. The center recently got some new Elinchrom lights that we will use during the workshop. The day will be filled with information on how to use studio lights, quality of light, and various lighting patterns. Here is a link to a post from the last workshop, and what the students produced. The best part is, we will be working inside and be out of the heat:). If you would like to join us, we still have a few spots left so feel free to email me contact@dreamlandimages.com or call the center 843.720.3105 with any questions. If you register before this weekend, you can use this code: A.Hale for a 10% early bird discount!
See you soon:)

We photographed the Rees’ family while they were on their vacation at the beach in Charleston SC. They were such a fun group, and we have decided to commission them to record an album for all our upcoming family photo sessions;). It was a gorgeous morning, and the colors of their clothing worked splendidly with the environment!

This was a very meaningful wedding for me to photograph, because I have known Anna since high school. We went to college together too, where she taught me how to pluck my eyebrows—thank you Anna! Anna has always been such a wonderful woman with a kind soul. She is gorgeous, and it was such an honor to be able to photograph her wedding day. One of the reasons I love my job is because I get to record history as its happening, and it makes it all the more special when it is someone I have shared my own history with. Wes is one lucky man, along with his sons Hunter and Avery who now have a new step-mom:). I won’t embarrass both of us by bringing out some of the photographs from our high school “dance” parties (which mainly involved eating cake and a bit of treadmill action;), but there is still a collage of photos on a cork board in my closet back home decorated with our memories. I guess I’ll have to add some of these to my collection now. I love you Anna, and I wish you and Wes much laughter and joy in your adventure together!
Special thanks to all the vendors that made the day so beautiful!
