Anna & Robert | the engagement session

Oct
2013

Anna was one of my first clients when I moved to the Greenville area several years ago and I adored her from the moment I met her. We stayed in touch, occasionally got together, did several more shoots and have even worked together on a wedding when she was there doing makeup. Anna is really special to me and when one of her besties called me to say that Anna was getting married and to save the date…I was ecstatic!! The cool thing is that the one who called me was one of my brides that I met through Anna and now Miss Sarah is someone dear to my heart as well. Can you tell I love my brides?? Anna & Robert are a super couple and I couldn’t be any happier for them to start this new chapter together. A BIG congrats!!!

When we talked about the engagement session, Anna mentioned that they wanted something a bit different and a bit more fashion inspired. I was like “of course!!”. Fashion is still the root of my photography and so it got my wheels turning thinking of what we could do. What they chose to wear really fit the location and I am thrilled with the results. I must also give a big shout out to Leslie Kerrigan for stopping by to help out. Anna wanted a couple of photos with Robert’s truck because as she says “It’s his baby and is always working on it.” The funny part was when we finished, she said “Just watch, I know he is itching to clean it now.” and when we turned around, Robert was wiping off the hood. Needless to say, we finished with a lot of laughs!

Thank you for stopping by!

Kamella & Derek | the engagement session

Sep
2013

I had the pleasure of meeting Kamella & Derek for the first time at Sarah & Collin’s rehearsal dinner. We instantly started chatting and laughing and then when it came time to sit down and eat, I took a short break from taking pictures and sat with them at their table. Silly ‘duh’ moment when I asked them twice when the BIG date was. The second time I asked I realized that they hadn’t gotten officially engaged yet and here was the photographer asking about their date. haha. BUT I could see they had such a beautiful chemistry between them and I could see that they were meant to be. It was really fun being with them on Sarah & Collin’s wedding day as they were in the bridal party. So…as you can see, Derek asked the BIG question and Kamella said ”yes!!”. I am so very excited for them and am honored to be their wedding photographer. This is going to be a great journey with them.
