Your wedding deserves more than content.
It deserves documentation that will outlive trends.
I’m Lauren Jonas — a Charleston-based wedding photographer working primarily in medium format film, with digital woven in thoughtfully. My approach is calm, observant, and deeply intentional. I step in when needed, step back when it matters, and focus on the quiet in-between moments that actually define your day.
This is not about performing for the camera.
It’s about feeling like yourself — and remembering it that way.

What Makes Film Wedding Photography Different?
There’s a reason couples are returning to film.
The texture. The light. The restraint. The way it feels.
If you’re planning a thoughtful, design-forward wedding and want to understand how I blend film and digital — and why that matters — this guide will walk you through everything.
I believe your wedding should feel like you — unforced, beautiful, and fully present.
I photograph with film because it slows everything down. It asks for intention. It rewards honesty.
If you’re planning something meaningful and thoughtfully designed, I would love to hear about it.
