Free Parking Voucher | Holiday Magic in Historic Charleston

Posted on December 17, 2011

The kids wrapped up their last school day of 2011, and it’s time to finish some shopping, check out the tree at Marion Square, take a look at the amazing train display in Charleston Place and redeem my Groupon for a carriage tour with the family. I am printing out one of these vouchers for my downtown engagement session this afternoon, and I wanted to share it. I always look forward to this little treat from the city — park free for your first two hours (one voucher per visit). It is good through December 31, and you can confirm the participating garages when you download the free parking voucher. Happy shopping, dining, ambling in our fair city, which glows even more brightly each December.

Contact Jen to schedule a fun portrait session in the great outdoors or to learn more about wedding photography offerings. Cheers!

Painted Ladies (and Men) at the Gibbes

Posted on March 21, 2011

Over the weekend, I was nursing some flu-like symptoms with quality couch time watching a Creative Live photo workshop. (Bambi Cantrell shared so much knowledge!) The last segment of her posing workshop included a model wearing a little body paint, which reminded me I hadn’t yet blogged about this fun February fete at the Gibbes Museum.

I had so much fun documenting this Society 1858 party for the Gibbes Museum! A dozen lovely models were paired with as many local artists who interpreted works from a current exhibit onto these moving canvases for a fantastic runway show in the museum’s largest gallery. Hundreds of partygoers applauded those who braved the catwalk while Charleston’s favorite glamazon and brainchild of Charleston Fashion Week, Ayoka Lucas, emceed the show. Later, guests enjoyed tasty cocktails and delicious hors d’oeuvres provided by Summerville’s five-star gem, The Woodlands.

Be Mine | Valentine Couple’s Session

Posted on February 1, 2011

So this may look like an engagement session, or “e-sesh” for those who can’t be bothered with all those pesky syllables. But it’s just a gorgeous couple in love. We wandered around the nation’s largest historic district on the nicest afternoon in weeks, and with every stroll I love my little movie set of a town even more. Cemetery, gallery, theater, fountain, ships, alleys — just in this one hour. It was fun to see how David has fallen for Charleston as well as for Caroline. It was his first visit to the Holy City. But it won’t be his last!
