There is a reason some places are just called hidden games, and Dataw Island is one of those places. Tucked away in St. Helena just a few hours south of Charleston, the picturesque setting screams out Low Country with sweeping views of the marshes and spanish moss trees. I have to admit that pulling into […]

When a couple comes to you and says they’d like to take some of their engagement photos in a local bar because “let’s be honest, our relationship revolves around food and drinks,” you know they’re your people.
