SC State House

AMBER + RYAN - engagements at the SC State House : Columbia, SC wedding photographers

Doing an engagement session with a couple is like packing a few weeks or months of friendship all into two short little hours. We found out who you are, where your from, your sense of humor, what restaurants you like.... (you get the point).  It's almost like speed dating (well....we don't know anything about speed dating so that's perhaps not an appropriate assumption. We digress.) It's our chance to really get a sense of who you are as individuals, and as a couple. In short, we love it!  Amber and Ryan are super cute, super sweet, and super fun. When I (Aaron) found out that they were getting married in Rome, GA I am pretty sure it took all of my will power not to crack a "when in Rome" joke. We loved working with them, and hope you enjoy some of our favs!

KATY + RYAN - wedding at City Art : Columbia, SC wedding photographer

Why do we do it?  Weekend after weekend?  We see couples get married on a weekly basis. Since the start of all of this, Josh and I have been present as photographers for 89 weddings. We love it because we love connection.  We love the bond and relationships between two people.  Katy and Ryan were such a wonderful couple to be with and photograph.  I know we often talk about people being comfortable in front of the camera and how much we love it, but it has so much truth.  I think part of it comes from being comfortable with each other.  Katy and Ryan really worked hard to make their wedding day unique to them.  They wanted something different not for difference's sake, but for the feeling of individuality much the their relationship.  Yes everyone says vows, everyone has decor, everyone has something to eat, but its the thought and personality that makes each wedding different.  

 

The day was full of fun, and full of characters. One of our favorites being Ethel the dog.  She is so perfect, and I love that Katy and Ryan wanted to include her.  There are just too many great things to talk about so.... on to the photos!
