"The most meaningful moments are the ones we think we'll remember forever."
Palmetto and Oak
Hi! Nice to meet you!
I'm Annie, the photographer behind Palmetto and Oak based in Charleston, SC.
Life with kids is busy, messy and constantly changing - and that's exactly what makes it worth remembering. As a Charleston family photographer, I specialize in creating a laid-back, stress-free experience so you can actually enjoy your session (yes, even with toddlers). No stiff posing. No pressure for perfect smiles. Just real connection, genuine moments, and images that feel like YOUR family.
A photography experience designed for real life
Sessions that feel easy and natural (even with little ones)
Guidance every step of the way (including what to wear, where to go and what to expect)
A mix of beautifully candid photos and in-between moments
fast turn-around so you don't wait weeks for your memories
Serving Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Isle of Palms and surrounding areas.
Why these moments matter - now
There is never a perfect time. Children grow, parents age, seasons shift and moments quietly pass whether we pause to capture them or not. Photography allows us to slow down and hold onto what matters most before it becomes a memory. These images won't be for just today, they are for the future. These are for children remembering their parents, for families honoring those who came before them and for preserving stories that deserve to be seen and remembered.
