Winning Best Of in Mount Pleasant was a moment Stephanie Selby said she’ll never forget. “It feels absolutely incredible! Being nominated – and actually winning – comes directly from this amazing community. I pour my heart into creating a luxury, confidence-boosting experience for every client, so knowing people felt seen and celebrated enough to vote for us? That’s the ultimate reminder of why I do what I do!”
This booming business didn’t just grow overnight. A luxury, high-touch experience with genuine relationship-building is the result of hard work and dedication. Every detail from wardrobe styling, professional hair and makeup, multiple-location shoots and custom-designed artwork is handpicked so clients feel like they’re starring on the cover of their own magazine. They’re invested in education, systems and a talented team. Despite all this, Selby credits her growth to her clients. “Word of mouth has been the biggest driver,” she said. “I never take that for granted.”
What truly sets Stephanie Selby Photography apart is the experience. Planning, styling, posing and creating heirloom art for client homes are just a few of the many ways that her team guides clients through the process. “Clients don’t just get photos, they get an unforgettable confidence experience,” she explained. With their warm and bubbly personalities, her team makes even the most reluctant clients feel relaxed, celebrated and beautiful.
Their mission for every client is to ensure they leave feeling supported, seen and completely taken care of. This “concierge-level service” encompasses clear communication, thoughtful preparation and a seamless, joyful experience throughout the journey together.
Community is truly what matters most to Selby in her profession. As a Mount Pleasant native, she loves working and growing with local business owners, realtors and creatives. Their projects that focus on community, which include senior experiences and the 40-Over-40 portrait celebration, often highlight the amazing women who live and work locally. Connection is key and her team works to build meaningful ones everywhere they go. They love working with local hair and makeup artists, boutiques and families to make their photography a true reflection of Selby’s hometown.
Selby’s specialties include luxury personal branding, headshots, seniors and fine art portraits. A modern, polished and approachable vibe gives her work a unique touch. Her favorite places to shoot? Any location that reflects her client’s personality. Other favorites include her Mount Pleasant studio, downtown Charleston, charming streets with pastel walls and live oaks and dreamy beaches.
Her studio is full-service and offers luxury with wardrobe styling and concept planning, professional hair and makeup, studio and multiple-location shoots, master retouching and albums, wall art, digital collections and more. Every project is delivered with warmth, fun and confidence-building energy. “I’m so grateful to every client who trusts me to create portraits that tell their story,” Selby said. “This studio exists to make people feel seen, empowered and absolutely beautiful – and that’s exactly what we do every day.”
