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.

Hermitage Hotel Wedding: Megan & Taylor

“The photographer is crying!”….I heard several guests whispering across the aisle from me as I pressed my camera up to my *admittedly* teary face.  (To be fair, I cry at almost every wedding I photograph haha.) However, I happen to know these two lovely people and their family so Megan and Taylor are extra dear to my heart…both clients and friends! Their wedding last weekend was so full of joy…I don’t think I have ever had a bride genuinely laugh as much as Megan did throughout the day. The happiness could not be contained! Hope you enjoy looking through these as much as I do!

Cornelia Fort Airpark Engagement- Taylor and Jacob

Normally unless a couple has been photographed before, it takes a few minutes for them to get comfortable in front of the camera. These two rocked it from the very start like pros! After a quick stop downtown, we headed out to East Nashville to Shelby Park and the Cornelia Fort Airpark for the second part of the shoot. The light was so amazing I might have gotten a little over excited. 😉 Enjoy!

Nashville Engagement Session: Lauren & Charlie

I had so much fun with these two on their engagement shoot last Sunday! They literally picked me up and drove us from Cumberland Park all the way out to the lake and it was awesome getting to hang out and get to know each other more. 🙂 Since Lauren and Charlie got engaged on a lake, they thought it would be fun to incorporate some lake shots into their session and I am so glad we did! The lighting out there was amazing! Enjoy-
