Charleston engagement – Modern elegance meets Greek Revival

Charleston Engagement

Accentuated beauty

We recently had the pleasure of capturing Matt and Molly’s incredible Charleston engagement. They chose the stunning old Karpeles Museum in the charming Cannonborough district of Charleston as their backdrop, and let me tell you, it was pure magic. The combination of modern elegance attire and Greek Revival architecture created a truly breathtaking atmosphere for their photos.

What made this session even more special was that Matt and Molly decided to incorporate an alternate wedding attire into their Charleston engagement session. And let me just say, Molly looked absolutely radiant in her white bridal dress with a charming bow detail. She truly stole the show with her beauty and grace. Meanwhile, Matt opted for a beige linen suit, which added a touch of casual elegance to the overall look. Together, they were a picture-perfect couple, exuding love and happiness.

The Karpeles Museum was the perfect location for this engagement session. Its grandeur and historical charm perfectly complemented the couple’s vision for their photos. The intricate details of the Greek Revival architecture added a touch of timeless elegance to each shot. We were able to capture intimate moments against the museum’s stunning backdrop, creating truly unforgettable memories.

The Karpeles Mueum has always been one of our favorite locations for Charleston engagement sessions, and this experience with Matt and Molly only solidified that love.

The place’s rich history, vibrant atmosphere, and picturesque style make it an ideal setting for capturing love stories.

We feel so honored to have been a part of Matt and Molly’s journey towards commitment.
