The Gaillard Center in Charleston, SC, is a stunning architectural building completed with $142 million in private cooperation. It features a world-class performance hall, exhibition hall, four function rooms, and four salon rooms. The center's interior boasts grand staircases on the first floor and two impressive spiraling wooden staircases on the second and third floors. It's a popular venue for brides-to-be due to its artistic design. As a wedding photographer, I was honored to capture a bride-to-be for her bridal portrait competition at the Gaillard Center. It's important to always ask for permission to avoid issues and ensure a flawless and enjoyable client experience. The image I captured was stunning, featuring a beautiful wedding dress designed by Hayley Paige and provided by Jodi of White on Daniel Island. I worked with Jeannine Mariotti of Makeup by Jeannine and Haley from Hermosa Jewelry, who designs incredible bridal jewelry. Together, we found the perfect angle on the grand staircases with the help of Haley. The resulting image is timeless and evokes a fairytale coming to life.
