Downtown, the islands and the plantations

Charleston Wedding Videographer

Charleston runs hot and humid most of the wedding season, and the best light downtown is gone early. The couples who end up happiest with their film are the ones who moved first looks and portraits to suit that — we'll tell you honestly what a timeline costs you.

Questions couples ask

How far is Charleston from Atlanta?
About five hours, so we usually travel in the day before rather than driving the morning of. There's no surcharge for it.
What ruins most Charleston wedding films?
Heat and timeline. A 4pm outdoor ceremony in July means everyone is uncomfortable and the light is harsh. Moving portraits later changes the film more than any gear decision.
How much does a wedding videographer cost in South Carolina?
Our collections start at $4,500. What a wedding actually costs depends on how many hours you want covered and whether you want a second shooter — tell us your date and we'll send real numbers rather than a brochure.
What is your filming style?
Documentary. We don't direct and we don't manufacture moments — we embed in the day and record it as it actually happens, then cut it so it still feels like that day in thirty years.
How far in advance should we book?
We're currently booking select 2027 weddings. Popular dates go early, so inquire to check whether yours is open.
Do you work alone or with a team?
Eli leads a team of documentary wedding filmmakers, so coverage can scale to the day — single shooter through to multiple cameras across getting ready, ceremony and reception.
