Channeling My Inner Southern Belle - Lowndes Grove Plantation

 

 

I was fortunate enough to accompany my niece on the photo shoot for her bridal portrait at Lowndes Grove, a plantation on the banks of the Ashley River in the heart of Charleston. It is available hourly for things such as our photo shoot but is also a very popular place for weddings and other events. There are also several guest suites available in the main house as well as in the adjacent River House.

 

 

We pretty much had run of the house for the photo shoot...it was incredible to be able to wander from room to room in this grand plantation house.  I tried to take as many pictures as I was able without disturbing the professional photographer. 

 

Here is a sneak peek of some of the photos from the wonderful photographer, Jennings King:

 

 

And a fun one I took while goofing around....

 

 

I love this one of the photographer at work...

 

 

Here are some shots I took of the interior of the house...

 

How amazing is that staircase??

 

 

The view from the upstairs verandah...

 

 

And, some of the grounds...
