At Holy City Families we value family & try really hard to prioritize having a Healthy Work / Life Balance. We believe that it directly affects our attitude, energy, creativity and ultimately our success.
As such, we can only accept 10 families for Family Portrait Sessions each month
We encourage you to book you session as far in advance as possible to ensure availability for your family!

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance should we book our session?

We can shoot your Family Portraits in and around downtown Charleston, Hampton Park, Charlestowne Landing, Magnolia Gardens, Cypress Gardens, at one of our beautiful County Parks, on Isle of Palms, Folly Beach, Kiawah Island or Seabrook Island. 
The possibilities are limitless! 
During your pre-session phone consultation, I will talk with you about the types of locations that interest you & help you to select a photo location that will be perfect for your family!

Frequently asked questions

Where & When do we shoot?

The softest, most flattering light of the day happens in the 90 minutes after sunrise or in the 90 minutes before sunset. With that being said, we can shoot at any time of day, as long as you understand that the sunlight (looks) different at 1pm than it does at 6pm. If you want to shoot in the middle of the day, we’ll just need to get a little creative with locations, vantage point and posing! Downtown Charleston is a fantastic option for shooting in the middle of the day!

Frequently asked questions

What time of day do we shoot?

I am frequently asked to photograph Extended Families vacationing in in Charleston and on our nearby beaches! I am happy to travel to your vacation rental or I can show you some of the most beautiful vistas that the lowcountry has to offer for your Family Portraits!

Frequently asked questions

What about our Extended Family? 

You’ll want to dress in a way that feels authentic. You’ll want to dress in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident — like the very best version of you! During your pre-session phone consultation, we'll discuss wardrobe. I am happy to help you to put together your wardrobe for the session.

Frequently asked questions

What should we wear?

Yassss!

Frequently asked questions

Can we bring the dog?

Due to high demand and limited availability, Creative Fees are non-refundable for any reason.
In the event of illness, inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances, we will simply re-schedule for the very next available date / time that works for both of us! 
If possible, we will shoot before or after any inclement weather is expected to arrive.

about Brittany

A third generation photographer, I grew up in a home with beautiful, old black & white portraits lining our walls & filling our drawers. I think I've always loved faces, relationships & artistic storytelling because of it. After graduate school, I moved home, opened my portrait company and never looked back! I've been helping families to tell their love stories professionally for the last 16 years and for you, that means: reliable, consistent, quality work, every time!
