I booked Dennis for a surprise proposal in Charleston after speaking with multiple photographers. He was a pleasure to work with and we love our photos so much! Couldn't have asked for better results!

Dennis was AMAZING to work with! So communicative and helpful. The pictures came out so beautifully - it truly was a treasure to have our moment captured with our family. I highly recommend Charleston Photo Art for anyone who is looking for timeless elopement/wedding pictures. 10/10 experience!

Dennis did an amazing job working with me on planning a surprise engagement! His work is amazing and me and my fiance plan to use him for the wedding! My advise to a new customer would be to upgrade to the bigger picture packages because all of these pictures came out beautifully. I originally picked the cheapest photo package for engagement, but after seeing the work Dennis did, we upgraded and got all of the pictures.

I cannot recommend him enough and we will be using him again! For reference, attached are photos that Dennis took. The first few are edited fully and look amazing! The final picture is before editing and still looks amazing.

Dennis is the BEST photographer to have in Charleston! He did an INCREDIBLE job with my engagement pictures and made it super fun and exciting and enjoyable and always put a real smile on our faces for our beautiful pictures! I would 10/10 definitely recommend Dennis to anyone who is looking for a photographer!

I organized a photo session with Dennis for our proposal on front of the Angel Oak Tree in Charleston and we could not be happier with Dennis and the finished products. Dennis was very professional, timely, organized, hospitable, and went above the call of duty for our special day. The extra services and amenities that he provided we greatly appreciated. We recommend Dennis for your future photography needs. 5 Thank you!

Dennis was amazing! He was very professional and fun to work with. He captured some great photos! So many that we upgraded our package. He is very knowledgable of the area, and he made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire process. Would definitely recommend.

My wife and I eloped in Charleston this week and we were fortunate enough to have Dennis as our photographer. Dennis was amazing. He was extremely accommodating, kind, patient, and hilarious. It was extremely hot outside and he was an absolute trooper for us. Dennis is very skilled with his photography but more so in making his clients feel comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him, and we would highly recommend him to anyone!

Dennis and his team are incredible in all aspects! We used him for our engagement photos over a year ago and knew we wanted him to capture our wedding day. We planned from out of state and he made it so easy. He was there to capture the big moments and tiny details we will always remember. He listened attentively to what we wanted and also came up with creative photos. After the wedding, he let us look at all the photos and choose the ones we wanted to cherish forever. We love how fast the turn around was and highly recommend him to anyone looking to preserve their memories for a lifetime!

My fiancee and I had such an incredible engagement session with Dennis today. We have already received our gallery of photos and couldn't be happier with the results. We wanted to get our engagement pictures done as soon as possible and Dennis was very quick to respond to messages and to schedule our shoot. We wanted to incorporate our dogs in to our photos and he got great shots with them. He definitely went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with our photos. It was such a great experience and I can't wait to use his services again!

Dennis was very accommodating for our family photo session. The venue was perfect and he was able to capture truly tender moments. He was great to work with, very flexible. He has a great sense of humor and was able to capture the love we have for each other and our sweet little family. He was easy to work with and he explained why he positioned you a certain way as to be able to capture the light just right or to be sure you weren't squinting in the photograph. WE enjoyed working with Dennis and Charleston Photo Art and look forward to other events with them.

People who view our wedding photo link comment on how well the photographer captured the moment. He was so funny and fun to work with his creativity is a new level of wedding photography. We really were lucky to have found Dennis!
