Blair Witkowski is a publisher, entrepreneur, and SEO strategist based in Bluffton, South Carolina. He is the founder of Coastal Marketing Strategies and the publisher of Lowcountry Style & Living, where he shares stories about life, culture, and craftsmanship in the South Carolina Lowcountry.
Blair Witkowski is a storyteller, entrepreneur, and lifelong Lowcountry resident who believes the best stories are the ones lived close to home. As the founder and publisher of Lowcountry Style & Living, Blair built this platform to celebrate the people, places, and experiences that make South Carolina’s Lowcountry one of the most beautiful and inspiring regions in the South.
For Blair, this site began the same way many great projects do — with curiosity. After years of writing about digital marketing and building online brands, he wanted to create something that was personal. Something that wasn’t about algorithms or analytics, but about community, beauty, and the simple joy of living well where you are.
He and his wife, Jennifer, both long time Bluffton residents, started Lowcountry Style & Living to share their love for coastal living, good food, family adventures, and Southern design. What began as a few stories about local restaurants and weekend getaways quickly grew into a full publication reaching readers across the region and beyond.
A Deep Connection to the Lowcountry
Blair has called the Lowcountry home for most of his life. He knows its rhythm — the quiet stillness of the marsh at sunrise, the bustle of Bluffton’s farmer’s market on a Saturday morning, the sound of church bells echoing across town as the tide rolls in. This landscape and its people are woven into his story, and that sense of place runs through every article published on this site.
He writes and publishes from a local’s perspective, highlighting not just the postcard version of the Lowcountry but the real one — the community of craftsmen, artists, families, and dreamers who make it what it is. Under his direction, Lowcountry Style & Living has grown into a voice for authenticity, discovery, and everyday Southern life.
A Builder at Heart
Beyond this publication, Blair has spent his career building. He is the founder of Coastal Marketing Strategies, a digital agency known for helping home service businesses and creative professionals grow their online presence. Through that work, he has developed a deep understanding of how storytelling, design, and visibility come together to shape a brand.
But while his professional background is rooted in SEO and marketing, Blair’s motivation for this site was always simpler — to create something meaningful. Something lasting. Something his family could be proud of.
Every project he creates, from a small niche website to a national directory, is built on that same foundation: purpose, craftsmanship, and the desire to make something real.
Life, Family, and Inspiration
At home in Bluffton, Blair and Jennifer are raising their nine children, who inspire much of what you’ll find on these pages. Their family life is full of laughter, noise, and the everyday stories that make the Lowcountry feel alive — boating on the river, exploring local trails, or just sitting outside as the sun sets through the oaks.
That sense of family is at the heart of everything Blair creates. He believes a good life isn’t built in a hurry or on a screen, but through moments of connection, good food, hard work, and gratitude. Lowcountry Style & Living is his way of sharing that philosophy — of encouraging others to slow down, appreciate what surrounds them, and find joy in the small details of everyday life.
The Ongoing Story
Today, Blair continues to write, edit, and oversee content for Lowcountry Style & Living while managing several other publications and creative ventures. Whether he’s sharing a new restaurant discovery, highlighting a local artist, or exploring coastal design trends, his goal remains the same: to tell real stories with honesty, warmth, and pride in the place he calls home.
For Blair, this publication isn’t just about where to go or what to buy. It’s about belonging — to a region, to a family, to a way of life that values substance over show. Through every article, photograph, and feature, he hopes to help readers experience the Lowcountry not just as visitors, but as part of its story.
