They communicated everything clearly and were very friendly to us. The venue is wonderful, clean, and organized. It felt like a Christmas fairytale and we’re so thankful for them!

As a wife and recent Bride, I constantly look back at my wedding day gallery from my photographer. I would say at least once every couple of months! What I love about my wedding photos is that I can remember the day just by looking at those photos. I want that for YOU!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Ashlyn and Sea and Shea was amazing from start to finish! Ashlyn from the booking process through delivery of our edited wedding photos has been a joy to work with. Our time has been so great with Ashlyn and her fun and bubbly personality really keeps the long days of photos light and carefree. We were kind of against doing engagement photos but after a couple of hours running around downtown Charleston and really getting to know her and feel more comfortable in front of the camera it did help tremendously on wedding day. Also, our engagement photos turned out AMAZING! Day of wedding, Ashlyn and her team were professional and on top of it. She got all the shots I wanted and more and our end result photos could not have turned out more perfect :) we are still in awe at the results. Not only do you get an amazing photographer and great photos but she is reasonably priced as well, perfect combination! 10/10 recommend! Now our problem is we found over 500 photos to get printed and put around our house, which is a little excessive but they are all so good we can't decide.

Hi, my name is Malia! I am a photographer based in Wilmington, NC. I specialize in Weddings, families and newborns. I have always been passionate about photography and I started when I was young with a little camera my mom got me from a thrift store and just grown from there. Since then, I have worked with other photographers and my mother who owns a wedding rental company so I know my way around weddings. When I am not taking pictures, you can find me exploring with my little family!

Choosing a photographer for our wedding was crucial, and Malia surpassed all expectations. From our initial “meeting” to receiving our stunning photos, every interaction was smooth and professional. Malia possesses an incredible talent for blending into the background while capturing the most beautiful and raw moments of our special day. Reviewing our wedding album felt like experiencing the entire event again; each photo perfectly conveyed the emotions and memories I felt on my special day. Her ability to capture candid moments discreetly is truly remarkable. Throughout the wedding and reception, I hardly noticed her presence, yet the photos she captured were nothing short of magical. Malia has an exceptional eye and mad dog editing skills! Although I hope to never marry again, I can confidently say that I would choose Malia for any future photography needs. If you're seeking a photographer who not only takes breathtaking photos but also understands the significance of capturing genuine moments, look no further than Malia. She will undoubtedly surpass your expectations and deliver timeless memories that you will cherish forever. Thank you Malia!!!

Ironclad was the absolute perfect place to host our wedding! Rachel and the entire staff made everything so easy and the space worked perfectly for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. The price was all inclusive- to include the venue, the staff, and open bar for our guests for a designated amount of time and ended up being cheaper than it would have been had we purchased all the elements separately, and with the convenience of having everything (and everyone) under one roof! The ambience was exactly what we were looking for: rustic, yet dreamy- with twinkle lights everywhere. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to say “I do”!

The Taproom at Front Street Brewery was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. Their communication was efficient, and the quality of their work was superb. The space was beautiful, spacious, and had a lovely rustic feel that was perfect for our vision. Nicole, the event coordinator, was amazing - she made sure everything we wanted was ready and available the day of the rehearsal dinner. I would recommend the Front Street Brewery in a heartbeat!
