David Rinella- Founder

IMG_3638.jpg

David is a lifelong professional photographer, having worked in New York for 20 years, and in Charleston since 2016. In NY he specialized in still life / product photography, working for clients like Gap, Target, Nordstrom Rack, GQ magazine, David Yurman, “Garden and Gun” , “Butcher and Bee”, and many more.
Since moving to Charleston in 2016, he has added real estate photography to his business. It easily fits in with the fine tuned skill set and creative eye he has from years of product photography. He is an expert in straightening angles and high end retouching- to give the final images a natural look.

David is an FAA licensed drone pilot, so all commercial aerial photography is safe and legal.

David is married to Judith Puckett-Rinella, founder of Whisper Editions, and current photo director for Entrepreneur Magazine. Together they raise two daughters who are without a doubt, David’s true muses.
