Hey there, I’m Josh — police officer, security professional, and someone who believes protecting your home should be done the right way.

For more than 20 years, I’ve proudly worn the badge, serving my community in roles that include patrol, training, street crimes, surveillance, DUI enforcement, and hostage negotiations. I’ve spent countless hours observing criminal behavior and reviewing surveillance footage, which has given me a real understanding of what works — and what doesn’t — when it comes to security cameras.

Before law enforcement, I owned and operated a landscaping business, which gave me a strong foundation in planning, design, and attention to detail. That background helps me install security cameras cleanly and thoughtfully, without compromising the look of your home or business.

As I prepare for retirement from law enforcement, I’m building the next chapter through a company I truly believe in: Southern Charm Security.

What I Do

I specialize in professional-grade security camera systems designed for real-world conditions — not consumer shortcuts. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all packages. Every system is carefully planned with proper camera placement, coverage, and reliability in mind, so you’re not just recording video — you’re actually protecting your property.

I also offer select outdoor lighting solutions that complement security and visibility, but security cameras are the core of what I do.

What Makes Southern Charm Security Different?

This isn’t a sales operation. When you call, you’re speaking directly with me. I handle everything — from the initial consultation and system design to the final installation. No subcontractors. No pressure. No upsells.

As a trained hostage negotiator, I understand that communication matters. I return calls, answer texts, and follow up. After decades in law enforcement, I’ve built this business on trust, transparency, and reliability — the same values I relied on throughout my career.

Our Mission

To listen first, then design security camera systems that actually work in the real world. Whether your goal is deterrence, clear evidence, or peace of mind when you’re away, my focus is on protecting what matters most.

If you’re ready to secure your home or business with a system you can trust, let’s talk. I’d be proud to help protect your property.
