This Edisto Island senior session with Sophie is one I’ll be reminiscing about for a long time! As a Charleston senior photographer, I love when my seniors want something unique that showcases both their personality and the iconic Lowcountry scenery. From the moment we started planning Sophie’s senior portraits, I knew it was going to be a fun, jam-packed shoot! She wanted a gallery full of variety: multiple outfits, fun locations, and that laid-back, coastal vibe — Edisto Island was the perfect place to make it happen! She grew up vacationing there every summer, and I thought it was SO fun that she wanted to incorporate somewhere sentimental into her session!

We kicked off Sophie’s senior session exploring some stunning natural spots around Edisto Island, just a short drive from Charleston. We fit in so many outfit changes at the shoot and Sophie absolutely nailed each one! One of my favorite parts of the shoot is that we kicked it off with the COOLEST blue, old school topless Jeep – talk about kicking off with a bang!!! From there, we drove through a stunning historic property, hopping in and out of the car as we found the perfect light pouring through the trees. Then, we made our way down to the beach just in time for the dreamiest golden sunset! There’s something so magical about wrapping up a senior session with sandy toes and golden sunlight. It’s one of my favorite parts about summer sessions in Charleston!!

Sophie, thank you so much for choosing me as your senior photographer and trusting me to capture this special season of your life. I loved spending the afternoon laughing with you and creating beautiful memories on Edisto Island. I hope you love these favorites as much as I do!

LOVE this one!! How fun is this Jeep?!

The light here was just UNREAL! Photographers, if you are struggling with editing your greens and they feel too “yellow” or “muddy”…the “fix greens” local adjustment that is included with my presets may save you!!

We jumped out of the car SO fast when I spotted this floral field!!! Dreamy!

One of my favorites from the beach!
