I, like many photographers out there, don't have a studio, or don't have the money to rent out studio space every time I want to do a shoot. While shooting inside my house or garage is always an option, I found myself wanting to experiment more with ambient and natural light. Although I love shooting in a studio, a completely controlled environment, I learned shooting outside

I set up my studio muslin backdrop outdoors, blending it in to the trees of my backyard in this outdoor, vintage fashion portrait concept in Charleston South Carolina.

About the Whimsical Film Bridal Portraits at Charleston's Studio Sixty Reid This was my second time constructing an outdoor studio at the old location of my Charleston portrait photography studio - Studio Sixty Reid. This go around, I wanted to do something bridal, shoot it all on film, and use this whimsical Victorian wedding gown (Marie) from Claire Pettibone. Kyleigh modeled the gown with grace and the whimsical, fashion forward flair that is a staple of my studio bridal portraiture.
