Wild Cotton Photography

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.

Magnolia Plantation Bridal Portraits: Angela

Angela’s Magnolia Plantation bridal portraits seem like they took place ages ago, before all the Corona virus craziness started here in the Lowcountry. (Anyone else feel like it has been wayyy longer than a 2 weeks lol?) This bride has handled everything about her rescheduled wedding and previous photo shoots with such grace- it was raining the entire time these photos were taken! She powered through without a complaint and looked incredibly gorgeous as well. Hope these pretty pictures bring you some cheer. Happy Friday friends!

Charleston Engagement Session: Elizabeth and Jason

My favorite way to get new clients is through friends of my past couples. Elizabeth and Jason are friends with some of my all time favorites, Ali and Jeremy , so I knew I would love them even before we met! Luckily we squeezed in an engagement session (staying appropriately distanced) before the Covid-19 quarantine rules got strict here in Charleston, and I loved how much Jason makes Elizabeth laugh. Can’t wait to celebrate with them this fall!

Lowndes Grove Wedding: Shannon & Deron

Shannon and Deron’s lovely Lowndes Grove wedding was just over a week ago, and y’all it was a good one! You can tell a lot about a couple through watching the interactions of their family and bridal party, and everyone was so kind, excited and supportive throughout the day. There were so many things I loved about this wedding- their personalized vows, the gorgeous details, the donut favors, speeches that made everyone laugh, and the love of boy band music. 😉 Enjoy!
