SHANNON + TIM - Anniversary session Downtown Columbia : SC Photographer

We love seeing our couples even after the big day. We can still remember Shannon and Tim's lovely wedding at Magnolia plantation. It was such a beautiful day, and they are such a fantastic couple. One of my favorite things from their day was that their ceremony was early in the morning! Now, we're not really morning people on the regular, but when we do get up early I love everything about the morning. The quiet, the way the light changes, and the way you get to see the world as if it were totally new. Since we were up early and shooting their group pictures we had the chance to use Magnolias huge wall of morning glories. Blue morning glories that opened up just for us. For their anniversary session I think we continued with the unique time and even unique light. Shooting with Shannon and Tim as the sun set on Main Street brought so much gorgeous warm light into their session. It took me back to the morning of their wedding. We hope you enjoy a few of our favorites! 

Special thanks to Eyebrowjunkie.com for doing a fantastic job on Shannon's makeup!

MEAGAN - bridal portraits at the USC Horseshoe Columbia Bridal Photographers

Throughout our journey with Meagan, we've been really surprised with how many details have been pleasantly personal to Meagan in terms of our locations and discussions about photography and their sessions. For their engagements, we went out to Meagan's grandparent's house. It is a place that was near and dear to her as a special part of her childhood. For her bridal portraits, Meagan wanted to use the USC Horseshoe because her parents were married at the Rutledge House! It was a sweet moment and thoughtful gesture to honor and remember her parents. We were so happy to work with her (and mom too!). We hope you enjoy some of our favorites from this beautiful brides session.

KAYLA + CHRIS - engagements at USC and Columbia Riverwalk : Columbia, SC wedding photohgrapher

You know that saying that pets are just like their owners?  Well its true :)  When clients want to include their pets, it always tickles us. This time in particular because Kayla's sweet pup sofie.  She was so sweet and clam, just like Kayla.  We had a good time with Kayla and Chris!  Special thanks to Kayla's sister for being our dog wrangler for the session!

SARAH + JOSH + (baby) - maternity session : Columbia, SC portrait photographer

Fall and Spring are the two most popular times of the year for family sessions.  There is always a wonderful rush of business and inquiries in the Fall as all the leaves start to change colors, and families want to capture the beauty of it all in their family portraits. We had the great opportunity to work with Sarah of Bennett Wedding Directors and her husband Josh.  Sarah and Josh were getting ready to welcome their sweet baby girl into the world, and wanted to capture that special time with maternity photos, without doing the traditional style session. Here are just a few of our favorites from our time with Sarah, Josh, and baby Bennett.  Enjoy!
