Dennis is amazing! He made our engagement photos session so special and enjoyable! He is so personable, funny and great at taking amazing photos! We cannot wait for him to capture our big day! My fiancé and I High recommend Dennis ! Update! Our special day has sadly come and gone but we had the most memorable and magical time with Dennis and Shannon. Do you know when you dream of how you want your wedding photos to look when you are younger? How you look at others photos and say wow I really want my special day to be captured like that? Well Dennis is your guy! Dennis is so personable, fun, interactive, and made us feel so at ease during the whole process. There was no stress with pictures especially family pictures (which we were dreading because there was so many that had to be done). He captured pictures of our day that we had dreamt of for a while! He took the most beautiful pictures and made our day so magical. We couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for Dennis! He takes the time to really listen to your requests but also very helpful and intelligent if you have no idea where to even start ( like my husband and I where) Dennis is absolutely the best person to have to capture your day! We are so so excited to see the final pictures and will post a few once we receive them! We 100 percent recommend Dennis to others who are looking for a photographer in the area! We are from out of state and even with that Dennis was so easy to communicate with and made our dreams come true! Thank you Dennis!!

Looking for a photographer for any special day, Dennis & his team are the perfect pick! Dennis was so attentive, professional, and was wonderful to work with. Dennis captured our wedding for us, and we could not be happier with his talents he provided!

I don't typically leave Google reviews, but Dennis is absolutely deserving of a 10-star review if I could give one! My fiancé and I first had the pleasure of working with Dennis as our photographer for our anniversary, and it was truly one of the best decisions we ever made—thankfully, we found him through Air BnB. Not only did Dennis show us some of the most stunning spots in Charleston, including Rainbow Row, but he also spent over two hours capturing precious memories that we’ll cherish forever. After our session with him, I turned to my fiancé and told him that when we got engaged, Dennis was the photographer I absolutely wanted, because he has an incredible ability to capture the best moments in the most fun and personable way. Fast forward two months, and we had a surprise proposal (which completely caught me off guard!), and it was such a gift to have Dennis there to capture those special moments too. I’m beyond excited to leave another glowing review after our wedding (as deciding to have him as our wedding photographer was the easiest decision we've ever made), but finding a photographer as exceptional as Dennis for our anniversaries, engagement, and now our wedding is truly priceless. Tragen and I feel incredibly lucky. Thank you for everything, Dennis! There are no words to truly encapsulate all that you've given to us, but if you are reading this, please book with Dennis!

It’s been amazing to document your journey so far, from the anniversary session around Rainbow Row to the unforgettable surprise proposal. Your energy and love for each other make every moment feel so special, and I’m truly grateful to have been part of those memories.
I’d be thrilled to continue capturing more milestones with you in the future—whether it’s your wedding or any other chapter ahead. Thank you again for your trust and kind words!

I am so happy we stumbled across Dennis and his team for our wedding. We had our first experience with him for our engagement photos and he is such a joy to be around. He is very professional, timely, accommodating, friendly, and funny. We had 3 photo sessions with him, our engagements, my bridal portraits, and our wedding and he knocked all of them out of the park. They are all so beautiful and he even shows you some while he's taking them so you can get an idea of what they look like. He makes sure you’re happy with them once you get them back and if there’s anything you want changed. He also makes sure you know how he wants you to pose or just do something funny to be natural. He has very quick turn around and is truly amazing at what he does. We love the fact that his photos are natural looking and he really captures everyone’s true beauty. We also go to meet and work with Megan on our wedding day and she was a great addition to have! We love the photos she took as well and they both made our day so enjoyable. Our guests, families, and bridal party all enjoyed working with them. We can’t wait to continue to work with Dennis and his team in the future! We will highly recommend Charleston Photo Art to anyone needing a photographer!

We absolutely love Dennis. We did our proposal on the beach and he made us laugh the entire time for beautiful, genuine photos. He’s professional, patient, and he does this from the heart - not as a money grab. His passion for art made us so comfortable. We already know that we will be using him for our wedding photos too.

I can’t express how wonderful our experience working with Dennis was! My husband and I are not the photogenic type, but he made it so easy and natural on our wedding day! We were able to look through the photos two days later with him and they were all beautiful!

We hired Dennis for our wedding at Magnolia Gardens. Dennis did an amazing job guiding us through our pictures before our ceremony capturing many beautiful shots of the bridal party getting ready and the groom's party hanging out. During the ceremony and reception he captured tons of photos without ever obstructing or interrupting the wedding. His knowledge of our venue was a boon for us when it came to our wedding couple photos as he took us to amazing spots to capture the beauty of the scenery with us. We would hire him again in an instant for our photography needs

One of the best services I’ve ever experienced! He was incredibly responsive, always replying within minutes. Over three different photoshoots, he took around 100 photos and then I chose one of them for my professional headshot. I highly recommend him—not only for his skills but also for his great sense of humor!

I don’t have enough great things to say about Dennis! From the initial interaction via email, to meeting in person for the shoot - he was friendly, quick to respond, professional and made everything as easy as possible. We had a hard time choosing 20 photos, they were so beautiful! We ended up upgrading our package and even left with a framed photo from our shoot the next day! We’ve gotten 5 proof pictures back already and we are IN LOVE. If you’re considering using Charleston Photo Art for your photos, this is your sign to do so!

Dennis and his team are great photographers! They took photos at our wedding and did an excellent job! I looked high and low for a good wedding photographer that didn’t over edit the photos! Some photographers make the photos to light and airy and others to dark but Dennis and his team really keep the pictures looking natural! They also have great ideas on how to pose! Highly recommend you will not be disappointed!! Thank you guys again!! We love our photos!!
