    Amazing Photographer

    If you are looking for a photographer in Charleston for you wedding, look no further. Emily was truly amazing. From the first phone call, I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She responded immediately to any email that I sent and answered any of my questions with the extreme knowledge. For our engagement photos Emily was efficient, funny, and knew exactly the right spot for our photos in Charleston. She was so helpful on my wedding day and her team was always there capturing the right moments. She knew what we wanted as a couple and never did the cheesy shots you see or have done when you are part of a wedding party. I loved Emily's positive attitude, her patience, her ease and calmness with me. She is honestly the best, and the photos turned out beautiful.

    Wonderful experience, BEAUTIFUL photos!

    Emily was an absolute dream to work with! We had a destination wedding in Charleston SC back in May and met her just one week before our big day. My husband and I are both a little squirmy around cameras, and Emily made us feel super comfortable and at ease. Our engagement shoot was beautiful, Emily picked a gorgeous spot on Folly Beach and even let us bring our Golden Retriever, Waffles. We had so much fun and loved getting to know her before our big day. The wedding itself was even better, Emily and her team were a seamless part of our big day. She was able to wrangle our crazy family and friends to get the shots we requested, and more. We were in awe with all the photos and are still gushing over them. Her candids were our absolute favorite. She captured us both and our personalities so well and got great shots of our guests too. Thank you so much, Emily!!!!!

    Amazing!!!

    Emily is the best! We used her for our engagement pictures, our small wedding ceremony, and our large wedding reception! She makes you feel beyond comfortable and beautiful. Not to mention does a great job of wrangling all the families and wedding parties :). We are so grateful she was recommended to us, and recommended you hire her!

    Best decision!!

    Amy at Mac & B is the best thing to happen to our wedding! Now that it is over I miss her and her great spirit, organizational skills, and just overall kindness and coolness. We did not worry about ONE thing during our wedding. I'm not even sure what happened behind the scenes, but I finished getting ready and walked into a fairy tale. She guides you through the whole process seamlessly, keeps you on track, and responds IMMEDIATELY to any questions you have. Amy is that spirit you want in your life, and my husband and I consider her a friend now. Can't recommend enough!

    AMAZING photography skills!! We were so happy!

    Emily did a wonderful job capturing our memories on our wedding day. We were married on 8/24/19, and I am finally getting around to writing reviews for the amazing team that created such a perfect day! When I look back at the photos, I am brought back to happier times of family and friends that have come together to celebrate love. Emily’s photos created a whimsical elegance that I will always be grateful for! I thank her and her team so much for our lovely photos! I am so happy we went with her for our wedding photography capturing memories to last a lifetime!

    We are incredibly thankful that we booked Emily Baucom Photography for our wedding. Not only was Emily an absolute delight to work with, but our engagement and wedding photos turned out absolutely beautiful. I was initially impressed after looking through Emily's previous work - she has an incredible talent for capturing sincere moments and giving them a polished final look. Although she is based in Charleston, we requested to have our engagement photos in my hometown, Hilton Head Island. She was more than accommodating, driving down to work with us, and traveling to multiple photo locations on Hilton Head. We were so pleased with the final product - we felt like she really captured our relationship, giving each of our poses a natural, non-staged, look. On the day of our wedding, Emily and her team effortlessly covered the ceremony and reception, all the while having full command of their schedule and capturing every shot we had hoped for! While we have only received a sneak peak of our photos so far, we could not be happier. The photographs have been absolutely breathtaking, and have us so excited to see the rest! All in all, Emily's patience, organization and talent made it an absolute joy to work with her. I would certainly recommend her and her team to any bride getting married in (or around) the Charleston area!!

    Emily was an absolute dream to work with! She has a great "eye," and it translates so well in her photos. We are so pleased with the end product, we got over 1,000 photos back from our wedding day! I definitely recommend hiring the second photographer in her package, you end up with SO many more photos, and the "flow" of your big day isn't contingent on one photographer trying to capture every important moment. 10/10 would recommend, Emily is the best!

    Emily is so wonderful! Not only are her photographs beautiful but she is so easy to work with. She shot my bridal portraits and our wedding and I was so impressed!! She does a great job finding spaces for the photos and she was there to capture all of the important moments throughout the night! We could not be more pleased with her service and excited to have these photos as reminder of our magical night forever!

    EMILY IS AWESOME!!! I am obsessed with her work! She has a very creative style, and I would highly recommend that you book her before someone else does! She photographed our engagement session and wedding. We only had 3 hours of sleep the night prior to our engagement session on the following afternoon. She miraculously (yes it was a miracle) made us look amazing - despite the exhaustion and 100 degree weather - I sweat a lot. I am still getting compliments on those pictures. Throughout the wedding day, several members of the wedding party told me how much they liked her and her "photographer style". She will go above and beyond to make sure she gets the most beautiful shots, and even requested to see the church prior to the wedding so she could prepare her angles. I have always loved looking at creative "artsy" wedding photography, and her work is the best I have seen! We can't wait to see the wedding pictures!!!

    Emily was an absolute pleasure to work with. She has such a great eye and all of our pictures turned out better than I could have imagined! I would recommend her to all my friends and family for their weddings or portraits.

    I can't say enough wonderful things about Emily. She was a joy to work with. We booked her about 10 months out and then moved out of state and she was really cool about everything--even working in our engagement shoot just 3 days before the actual wedding. She's very calming and laid back and is definitely the kind of person who makes you wish you lived in Charleston fulltime so that she could become your friend (as if I needed another reason to wish I lived in Charleston).

    At the wedding itself, she walked that perfect fine line of being very present but inobtrusive. We were a laid back group of people and I told her that I didn't really want many posed pictures or anything. We got the posed shots done (and they looked really natural and lovely) and then the rest of the night she seemed to be everywhere at once--without ever being in anyone's way at all.

    And finally, the pictures themselves. I love them! I've never felt so pretty and I adore all the wonderful shots she got of people talking and dancing. She clearly has a great eye for light and natural beauty and she also got several of the artsy photos of food and our rings etc (which I didn't even see her taking but that I'm glad she did). Most of all, I think she has a natural talent for taking portraits and catching people looking natural, warm, and happy. This, all while not missing a single big moment or ever once distracting us on the big day by asking us to freeze or do anything again.

    In sum, I 110% recommend Emily.

    Check out some of our photos: http://blog.emilyhortonphoto.com/?p=3002 to see just what a great job she did!

    p.s. My only minus 1/2 star on responsiveness is because she does take a few days to get back to emails. This was fine and not a big deal to me, but, in the interest of keeping wedding wire as accurate as possible, I had to note that. For me, I was thrilled that she's probably out there taking so many photos and editing them that she isn't instantly replying to all emails immediately same day and she never was more than 2 or 3 days in replying, so I didn't really care, but I wanted to make sure I noted why I didn't give her 5 out of 5 full stars. (Really though, I think she deserves like 12 out of 5 stars--she was that awesome)
