Charlotte Ashley

Second Shooter | Columbia, South Carolina

Weddings

30 Jun

About a month ago, I had the privilege to second shoot for the Storyteller himself, a wedding photographer out of Highlands, NC.  Well… actually third shoot!  🙂  By the time I returned his phone call to scream with excitement that YES I would love to work with him, the second shooter position had been filled.  *Big pouty lip*  However, after our phone conversation of generally just getting to know one another (or more so, me picking his wedding photographer mind. Thanks Charles!) he decided that having a third shooter might not be a bad idea for this wedding!  🙂  So… off to Columbia I ventured; and through it all, met two other awesome photographers!  One from Charlotte, NC and one from Charleston, SC.  It was most definitely a networking venture for me; I luuuve meeting new folks that share the same passion that I do! And because I didn’t want the bride and groom to feel like they had the paparazzi after them, I focused mainly on the detail shots from the day; and worked the background with the 70-200mm zooming in on the action of what was happening between poses with the other photographers.  Here are a few from the day!  Thanks again to The Storyteller, Charles Bordner, for allowing me to represent his business!

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 6 🍉🌻

Mid-July we got the family together out on the river! We got all set up on a sandbar for the day, to be able to just chill- have a picnic and let the littles play their hearts out. Well… that was our hopes at least. 🤦‍♀️🫠 About an hour later, ALLLLL the boats showed up (group of friends) and just beached it right where we were swimming with the kids. I will never understand this… I am just of the mindset if you missed out on the sandbar, you missed out. Not… “well, we’ll just squeeze right in here on top of y’all.” But whatever. 😵‍💫 AmIright? Is that not the unwritten, understood law of the river rats? 🤣

Beach days are the best days!!! We were able to make 2 different day trips to the coast this summer. 

1. We are thankful for sweet friends who allow us to crash their family camping vacation for a day! 🤣 

2. And we are thankful for another group who are willing to up and haul their families to the coast for a day, too! 🤗

Two of my fellow Clemson forestry/ wildlife pals and I managed to take that girls’ trip we had been chatting about for a while! It was so good for the soul!!! We went owling at night, and just looking for all the critters we could find. 😁

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 3 🍉🌻
 
Our old-soul, mancub hit a milestone birthday this summer. So, as an early birthday present, we hesitantly (😅) decided to take him and a friend to a Hank Jr. concert, since they are both big fans. Our thought process: “Hank Jr. is old now… sure his music is timeless, but it’s bound to draw an older, more calm crowd nowadays.” NOPE. 😆🥴 

The trip morphed into a group trip with the friend’s parents and sister, and my dad joined us, too! All was well until a thunderstorm sent everyone to the concessions area where we were packed in like sardines for TWO HOURS to avoid the lightening and rain best we could. 😳 Well, you can only imagine most people there had only one thing to do during the two hour wait, so that by the time we could return to our seats, it was quite the scene. 🙈 Our sweet, sheltered homeschooled children were awakened to some of the ways of the world that night, for sure. 🤣🥴 Gracious!!! 

But alas, Hank came out on stage and was GREAT, even still as an older man in his 70’s. He played alllll the instruments, and even still could throw his leg up on the piano! 🤣😳

The boys ended their first year of fishing for PAC last April in 10th place; which was amazing for them! They overcame many obstacles and learned to fish better as partners. This particular tournament happened to fall on Jason’s birthday (he’s their boat captain), so our friends camping close-by helped him celebrate. 🤣😁

(We enjoyed it to the fullest and it FLEW by; so, slowing down to make posts didn’t happen. I don’t even know how it’s almost September. 🥴)

In April, we ventured to Beaufort with my family to see the Blue Angels in action. 🤩 They were awesome to see in person!
