There's something pretty amazing about getting to photograph two dear friends before they welcome their first child into the world. It's hard to believe that my high school buddy, college roommate, and best man is about to become a dad. I am super excited for these two to welcome their little girl into the world. I have no doubt they will be amazing parents. So glad we were able to create these gorgeous images in Columbia, SC.
This spring has been a gorgeous time for engagement photos, and Rachel and Tim had the perfect weather for their session. From the blossoming trees to their adorable dog, this session was one of my favorites. We started off in Forest Park before heading downtown. These two make a perfect pair; they are so comfortable and happy together. Their November wedding is sure to be a showstopper - can't wait to photograph Rachel and Tim's big day!
April kicked off the start of our 2016 wedding season, and Jessica and Parth set the bar high for this year. These two had such a memorable, beautiful wedding. The entire day was a beautiful combination of Jessica and Parth; it was awesome to see how they combined their families, faiths, cultures, and traditions. Their ceremony was the first I've ever photographed to include both Hindu and Catholic aspects. Jessica made a beautiful bride: first in her stunning red and gold Indian lengha, and then again in her white reception gown. She and Parth fit together so easily and perfectly. During their reception, Parth's sister welcomed Jessica to the family officially, but said it felt like she had already been a member of their family for years. I love that. I'm happy that I was part of the day these two made it official. Congratulations, Jessica and Parth!
