About Us

Welcome to Paula Player Photography!

Paula Player is a motivated, passionate, versatile wedding photographer living in the South Carolina Coast and traveling worldwide to capture beautiful moments as couples celebrate life together. I was born in the city of Bogota, Colombia, and moved to the U.S. at the young of 15. This exposed me to a variety of cultures and people. I first learned about photography thanks to my dad who turned our dining into a darkroom to develop images of our family. Experiences like this, helped me understand the true art of photography and shaped me to become a creative director in each of my own photographs.
With more than 14 years of experience in the wedding industry I love being part of our couples wedding day, sharing that special time in their lives and our photographs reflect this. Our team strives to create colorful, organic, and vibrant images.
