Every once in a while, it’s fun to trade places and be the one in front of the camera. This set was shot at Folly Beach, South Carolina — salt air, wetsuit, and all.
Behind the camera: South Sky Photography
These photos were captured by the talented Alison Paige of South Sky Photography, who has a great eye for playful, natural light portraits along the coast.
Why I love stepping in front of the lens
As a photographer, I think it’s healthy to know what it feels like to be on the other side of the camera — the nerves, the awkward first few frames, the moment you finally relax into it. It’s part of what keeps me empathetic with every client who sits in front of my own lens.
If you’re local to the Charleston area and looking for a photographer who understands both sides of the experience, I’d love to connect.
