Wild Cotton Photography bio picture
  • Charleston SC Wedding Photographer: Hi! I'm Aly Greer, a wedding photographer for Charleston and worldwide. I share love stories, wedding tips, and photoshop magic. I love my family, coffee, donuts and dogs! Do we have anything in common?

    Photography in the Modern South: What does the "modern south" mean? For me, it means tradition with a twist. Think front porches, comfort food, bowties, nice manners...meets urban farming, pinterest projects, thrift store shopping, breaking the rules...and top it off with a little splash of "bless their heart." I live in Charleston (definitely the modern south), but am also available to travel worldwide.

Clemson Wedding: Camlin & Bryce

I am so excited to finally share this Clemson wedding with y’all! This wedding was special for so many reasons – I’ve known the bride since she was in elementary school (her sister was one of my college roommates), it was full of sentimental details (his grandma made Camlin’s wedding dress!), the groom surprised us with his awesome dance moves, and it all took place in one of my favorite towns (Go Tigers!). Congrats Camlin and Bryce! It was an honor documenting your day for you.

Wadmalaw Island Wedding: Darbie & Andrew

The amount of confetti explosions at this Wadmalaw Island wedding made me sooooo happy! I’m working on finishing up Darbie and Andrew’s photos this week and I’m so excited to get to share their colorful mid-century style wedding with you! On top of the confetti and the super fun couple, there were donuts, flamingos, and a dog in a bowtie – pretty much everything you need for a great day. 😉 Enjoy!

Mary Poppins Styled Shoot at the Gadsden House

To say that I’ve been dying to share these photos would be an understatement! Now that the gorgeous spring issue of A Lowcountry Wedding is out (pick one up at Barnes & Noble!), I can finally show you the amazing styled shoot we did with Elevents & Co and Roadside Blooms at the Gadsden House last year. I was obsessed with Mary Poppins as a kid (I used to jump off my playhouse with an umbrella convinced that I would fly), so when the new movie came out last year I knew I wanted to do a styled wedding a-la Mary Poppins. This colorful shoot was full of umbrella and kite accents, as well as nods to the original movie with “spoon full of sugar” and “chim-chim-cheree” desserts, a carousel cake, floral chimney design, and a tea length dress reminiscent of Mary Poppins‘ white dress in the original film. The colorful florals reminded us of the animated portion of the film, and Winifred, George, Bert, etc. even joined us via the place cards. Gadsden house created a lovely menu to fit the pink, yellow and red color scheme and the color palette was continued through the paper goods (the little penguins on the cake sign were adorable!). The umbrella installation with floral rain above the table and the kite guestbook were favorites of mine! So many wonderful vendors worked hard on this colorful and whimsical shoot (including our real life couple Katie and Wes!):
