Studios and working locations

Where Charleston’s photographers worked

Galleries, depots, field darkrooms and the positions photographs were made from. Not one of these pins is a building: Charleston renumbered its streets between 1882 and 1886, so a wartime street number cannot be converted, and each pin says how firmly it is placed.

● wartime location ● postwar ● viewpoint · a hollow ring means the pin is a street, town or island rather than a place

Documented, not mapped

The address is on the record; the position is not. These are listed rather than given a pin.
