James Brindley's Camera

With little direction, James captured the energy and emotion of our wedding.We asked for James to focus on the people we love so much, and not on setting up the perfectly staged shot. He instinctively knew who to follow with his lens (the 3-year-olds dancing, the crazy friend from college, the mothers!) but blended into the party.Before the wedding, James led us to his favorite Charleston backdrops that were classic yet not cliche - making us feel like the wedding we celebrated was truly unique.Responsive, nimble, positive, and fun. We are so honored James captured the moments of our wedding. We only wish we could do it again. More...

Hiring James to photograph our wedding day is one of the best decisions we made during the planning process! With so many details and decisions involved in planning a wedding, James was an invaluable asset from start to finish. He is incredibly professional, communicative, and extremely knowledgable about the Charleston area. James listened to us early on, and actively helped in developing a clear vision for the day, unique to our personal preferences. His photography speaks for itself, but what you can't see is the amount of work behind those photos. James made it a priority to get to know us as a couple, which made us feel comfortable and less awkward in front of the camera (we’re really awkward). James exceeded our expectations dealing with the many challenges of the day, including working with a large wedding party, shooting multiple locations on a tight timeline, ceremony and reception at a more challenging aquarium venue, and even getting in a few pics with our pup!We highly recommend James to anyone planning a wedding in Charleston, especially if it’s at the South Carolina Aquarium or a destination wedding. We’re so thankful for the joyous memories James captured that we’ll be able to look back on for years to come. More...

I worked with Jimmy at a wedding earlier this summer. Not only is he incredibly talented behind the lens, but he is such a joy to be around! When I saw the finally gallery from the wedding, I was blown away by how beautiful the photographs are. Future brides and grooms who want an awesome, energetic, and super professional photographer, look no further! More...

James is an incredible photographer. He is personable, professional, and extremely talented. He has a unique vision and captures beautiful angles with perfect lighting. We were lucky to have him for our engagement photos and wedding. He is calm and composed making photography sessions simple, fun, and lighthearted! Not only did he capture every special moment for us, he was able to capture moments we didn’t even see! He photographed our guests and I was able to relive the entire wedding from beginning to end through our album. He perfectly captured our wedding vision and listened to our preferences. James was easy to communicate with, timely in his communication whether it was email or text. He delivered photography by his timeline due date as promised (timely and quick!) and his websites to view the albums were easy to view and instructions were clear! I was very impressed with James photography skills but also his professionalism. I would highly recommend James and his services to anyone in the Charleston area. More...

James shot our wedding and it was absolutely perfect! We just got our photos back and we’ve been looking at them every day for the past week! My husband hates getting his picture taken and James was perfect at reading the room and taking all the pictures we wanted while also being cognizant of how he was doing! He blended in so well, we almost forgot he was there! We’re so happy we chose James as our wedding photographer! More...
