Photo and Video, Planned Together
When you hire a separate photographer and videographer, you get two vendors, two timelines and two crews working around each other. Our photographers and videographers plan your day as one team. They share one timeline, stay out of each other's shots, and you have one point of contact from your first message to your final gallery and film. And because we're a team, an experienced backup is always ready if the unexpected happens.
Wedding photography: relaxed, natural coverage with every image edited and full printing rights.
Wedding videography: a cinematic highlight film of your day, plus your full ceremony and speeches with our bundles.
Photo + video bundles: both services, one team, one plan.
Our team members live throughout the Southeast and beyond, so we never charge travel fees.
Meet Your Charleston Team
Our lead Charleston photographer lives downtown, so he knows the cobblestone streets, the waterfront and the best shade and golden-hour spots, and plans your portraits around Charleston's light and crowds.

A Charleston Wedding Videographer Who Tells Your Story
Your wedding day goes fast. A wedding film lets you hear your vows again, see the toasts you were too emotional to take in, and relive the dance floor. Our highlight films are edited to feel like a movie of your day, not a slideshow, and our bundles include your full ceremony and speeches.
Charleston was made for film: Spanish moss moving over the oaks, church bells and carriage wheels downtown, and golden hour on the water from the Battery to the islands.

What Our Couples Say
"We got married in Charleston, SC and we wanted a photography team that really knew the area. Thankfully, we found Stories and Stills! We made a plan for all the spots we wanted pictures way in advance, so the wedding day was nice and smooth. Highly recommend!"
Audrey A. · Charleston, SC · The Knot
"Stories and Stills did a wonderful job with our wedding videography. Somehow they were able to condense all the best moments of the day into a beautiful video and it was perfect. They were a pleasure to work with and one of my favorite vendors that we used. Highly recommend!"
Hannah Price
