Catching Up :: Photography Charleston South Carolina

A year ago this March my brother-in-law and sister-in-law moved to Charleston, Georgia from New York. I was thrilled to have them closer to us and even more thrilled that they were moving to a city that Spencer and I absolutely LOVE.

Due to this love, we have been to visit several times since they moved there and I have gotten some of my favorite "non-people" images on these trips.

The first time we fell in love with Charleston, our two year anniversary trip. Spencer and I rented bikes and loved every minute of the 3 hours we rode around Charleston. The best of times.

Some of my favorite people shots as well. I love shots of strangers on the beach.

I thought it was so cute this shot of the dad taking a picture of his wife and son.

My beautiful sister-in-law.

I don't put a lot extra textures or frames on many of my images but this one below, just seemed to fit.

This one I ab-so-fabulistically love of the two of them.

Taking in the night life of Charleston. I have to say there were as many stumbling drunk people in downtown Charleston as I remember there being on Bourbon Street when I was there many moons ago.

Lowlight shooting at it's finest my friends. ;)

Folly Beach, SC Continued

So here are the rest of the pictures that I meant to post last night but was too delirious to get them out.

I believe it is sad that it has taken me so long to post these, but I love them so much I had to get them up here.

When we got to Foley Beach, Liam so wanted to feed the seagulls so I gave him some bread and told him to go FAR away so that they wouldn't flock around us.
Did you notice something I caught in that last picture? I didn't until editing these in Photoshop.
GO ME for catching a crumb in midair!!! :D
See? Isn't it great? He's making his way back to us leaving the seagulls far behind. WHEW!

I can only guess why in the world he would have been making this face.
We had quite a few really cool discoveries that day. We saw MANY little hermit crabs. Any shell I spied that I wanted for myself was already occupied.

The second coolest thing we saw was this live starfish. How awesome is that?

This would be the MOST awesomest things we saw. See how close it is to the shore?
No it is not a shark. It was a dolphin. I kept standing there with my camera, my voice a few octaves higher than normal shrieking about seeing a dolphin.

Do you notice what point I am trying to make in the below picture?
Yeah, that's right. The dolphin was THAT close and Spencer seemed totally oblivious to it's presence.

You see here Liam excitedly trying to explain to Lee and Spencer what they had just missed.
SOOO handsome...even with cut off toes.

LOVE this image in black and white. {{sigh}} Those eyes.
On our way to the lighthouse we came across this little area. I think that the artist did an excellent job capturing the essence of Mr. T. "I pity the fool who airbrushed over my face."
Attempting to skip stones in the ocean. Not sure how successful they were.

Why yes, I do have a thing for feet.
Not sure if this was the same guy on the other beach but if it was, he found a friend to accompany him.
I will leave you with a few "pretty" shots I got while I was observing my little family.
