Elizabeth & Tripp: Engagements

Last week I met up with Elizabeth & Tripp in downtown Columbia for their engagement session.  This couple is so in love and love to laugh together!  I can't wait for their wedding next year!!

 

Sweet Betsy

I was thrilled when I got an email from an old friend, Erin, telling me that she and her husband had given birth to a little girl! It was so fun catching up and getting to meet this sweet baby!  Here are just a few from our session:

Kelly's Bridal Portrait

Amanda & Jimmy: November 8, 2008

Amanda & Jimmy have been such a pleasure to get to know and work with!  

This is the second "Amanda and Jimmy" that are in my life...my BFF/Assistant Amanda is married to a Jimmy as well, so it was really cool meeting an equally as special "Amanda and Jimmy" and photograph their wedding!  

Amanda is one those people who is so sweet, I really think I am a nicer person just hanging around her!  And Jimmy, well he just adores his sweet Amanda.   Anyone can see it.  Here are a few from their wedding.

Oh, yeah! CLICK HERE for their slideshow!!

Amanda & Jimmy: sneak peek

I'm getting ready to head out for a photographer's conference in Charleston, but I wanted to at least post something from Amanda & Jimmy's wedding Saturday.  More to come on Wednesday!

And here's my favorite from her bridal session:

The Wright Family

I met Jamie when she was a bridesmaid in Kristin & Philip's wedding earlier this year.  She wanted some family portraits of her family, as an anniversary gift to her parents.  Such a sweet family!

and one fun one, in honor of fall! :)

Marclee & Andrew: Engagements

Last week I photographed Marclee & Andrew's engagement pictures around downtown Greenville.  The whole drive up, the weather was so yucky and dreary, but just as I was entering Greenville, the skies parted and the rain stopped!  Thank you Lord!  The fall colors were gorgeous!  Here are a few of my favorites:

I just couldn't resist!!

This video has been circulating around the internet - it is worth watching!! Check out the senior adult choir at our own First Baptist church of Columbia...they can get down! My favorite is around 3:13 - "don't you wish your girlfriend was FUN like me" Hilarious!!
