Our Team
Nancy McCrae
Sales Representative
I am a Partner and Design Consultant at Advanced Window Fashions. I am a native South Carolinian and moved to the Charleston area in the 1990s. I can help you select the perfect solution for your design needs, whether your project is as simple as a single window covering or you have a challenging design issue. When I’m not on a sales call working with the clients who I’ve come to love dearly, I am on the road experiencing new places or spending time with my husband and two daughters who are grown and reside here in the Charleston area.

Lauren Hemminger
Sales Representative
I was born and raised in Charleston. Although Larry and Nancy are my parents, I don't get a free pass. While I may seem reserved at first, I truly thrive on working with others. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the beach with my husband and friends, traveling, and long walks with our dog, Meredith.

Lynn Longshore
Sales Representative
I am a fifth generation to the Charleston area and lifelong resident of Mount Pleasant. As a Sales Representative, I work with my clients and their design team to bring ideas to life. Small projects and large, the details make the difference. In my free time I enjoy spending time with friends and family and trying new restaurants.
Cameron Larson
Sales Representative
I grew up in central Utah and moved to Charleston for its beauty and culture. I have been in the window coverings industry for over 7 years both installing and consulting. After studying entrepreneurship at the University of Utah, I managed and consulted for a local Hunter Douglas gallery. I am passionate about manifesting home design and building business partnerships. In my free time I enjoy socials, skating, skiing, and photography.
Chris Campbell
Chief Certified Installer
I was born in Chicago but I’ve spent most of my life in Southeastern Georgia. I found myself in South Carolina on a visit and fell in love with people and scenery and decided start my life anew here. I have an extended 10+ years of customer service experience and I am also a Master Carpenter. In my spare time I love to spend time with my daughter, work on my vehicles and remodel or build anything I can. I will utilize my skills and attention to detail to make sure your window treatments are installed perfectly to your satisfaction.
Kevin Taylor
Certified Installer
I grew up in West Ashley, but currently call North Charleston home. I have a diverse background in medical equipment, commercial electric, and construction. My wife and I have been together for almost ten years. We have two sons, Sam (2) and Dean (5), and a 9-year-old yellow lab, Belle. I am an installer here at Advanced Window Fashions, but when I'm home I enjoy building things, cooking, being a nerd, and listening to music. When my children get a little older, I would love to explore the Tennessee mountains more on camping trips, take them fishing with me, and go on homeschool field trips with them.
Banyan Folwer
Certified Installer
I am originally from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. I recently transplanted down to Charleston for the beautiful ocean, salty air, and delicious low country food! On my own time I enjoy cooking, fishing, and hiking. I have specialized in carpentry, home finishes, and customer care for the past eight years. As an installer with Advanced Window Fashions I will ensure that your shades will be handled with care, and installed with precision.
Angela Iobst
Creative Media Specialist
I was born in Easton, PA and grew up in Florida. I fell in love with Charming Charleston many years ago on vacation. I have a passion for art and design, enjoy beach and boat days, trying new restaurants, DIY projects, hiking, swimming, and spending as much time outdoors with my husband, Ryan, our son, Noah and our chihuahua, Dolce.
Jill Freese
Office Manager
I was born and raised in Georgia. My husband and I came to Charleston several years ago on our honeymoon and fell in love with this charming city and decided then that one day we wanted to live here. We just recently made that dream come true. I have 20+ years experience in customer service. A few years ago, I discovered my love for the world of design and custom window treatments. When I'm not at work, I spend most of my time shark tooth hunting with my husband and trying new restaurants around Charleston.
Jacquelynn McCawley

I am a Charleston native and have lived in the Lowcountry my entire life. I received my bachelor’s degree in Business Management from Winthrop University. I have been with the company since 2015 and a Partner since 2017, taking pride in giving our customers the best possible service and building a lifetime of relationships. I love working with people and seeing a house turn into a home. You won’t catch me just in the office, but also out in the field helping our installers, and being on sales calls! In my spare time I enjoy fishing, being crafty, and walks with my husband and our two dogs.
