Fete Photography is Derek and Kristi Olson and we have photographed weddings in the Southeast since 2013 - from Charleston, SC to Asheville, NC. Our passion is naturally photographing you. Your love for each other, your personalities, your hearts, and the details of your life that make you unique. We do this by documenting candid moments with artistic, vivid portraiture mixed in.
If this is your first visit we recommend that you visit our blog or portfolio gallery. When you inquire with us for a wedding or family session we can send you full galleries to get a better sense of a whole day or session. Thank you so much for stopping by. We can't wait to hear from you! Charleston, SC is filled with color and so is our photography.
We are South Carolina wedding photographers who document destination weddings worldwide. A few other cities we frequently work in are Asheville, NC, Wilmington, coastal Carolina, and Savannah (that's where we got married!). We'll happily go anywhere your wedding is.

We are Derek + Kristi Olson.
We met each other at a game night with friends and have been inseparable ever since.
In 2012, we made the best decision of our lives and got married in Savannah, GA.
In 2018 we had a beautiful baby girl and she melts our hearts daily.
Baby girl #2 is arriving in 2021 : Our family is blessed and we enjoy every moment as parents.
We are both college graduates (from the University of North Carolina Asheville and Western Carolina University) and are thankful for our education and how it has shaped us.

Wedding photography isn't just one type of photography.
Put aside buzzwords you may hear while searching for a photographer or perusing wedding websites.
Let the images do the talking.
What emotions do they portray?
What do you like about the images?
Our craft requires being skilled at portraits, moments, lighting, being socially aware, and so much more.
Our approach to photographing your wedding starts with a documentary style (or photojournalistic) of capturing the day as it happens.
We also love taking artistic, creative portraits.

Engagement sessions are a great way to warm up to having your picture taken.
We keep them relaxed, playful, and fun - and we love getting to know who you are on these shoots.
We recommend one general location (such as downtown Asheville or the Arboretum) so it's easy to walk around from one area to the next.
Getting in the car and traveling too much on a session might disrupt the flow of the shoot.

A couple things happened in 2018: we had our first baby in May (we love her so much).
And we shot a bunch of fantastic weddings.
We are wrapping up year 5 of shooting weddings together and are about to enter our 6th year as Fete Photography.
Last year we didn't get to put a year in review post together, which is crazy because we had so many awesome weddings.
So we made sure to get our best wedding photos of 2018 collection done this year!
We included at least one of each couple we had the pleasure of photographing.

We loved working with Allison and Nasser in Charlotte, NC.
Their venue was Foundation for the Carolinas and it was amazing.
We are fans of incorporating color and lines in our photography so working a museum wedding in a city was pretty dreamy for us.
One reason the couple chose this location for their Charlotte wedding was because of the large cat painting by W. Louis Jones.
We think the bride and groom are the cat's meow.
Or the purrrfect clients?
Ok we'll stop.
We really enjoyed this modern, eclectic venue and we wish A+N all the best!
