Engagement: Caroline & Zach

Happy Memorial Day! Today happens to be a perfect day to share this particular post, since Zach is a member of the US Air Force. Thank you to him and all of the other men and women who have and are currently serving our country in the military!

We met Zach and Caroline in Columbia for their engagement portrait session. They also brought their dog, Calypso, along for some of the pictures and she has quite a special story! Zach gave Calypso to Caroline when he proposed at the airport when he was on his way back from a 192 day deployment to Afghanistan. Calypso served as a distraction so Zach could surprise Caroline with the ring. :-)

We started out the session around the Horseshoe at USC where Caroline went to college.

We also went down by the River Walk for some pictures. This shot was taken just before Calypso started barking pretty loudly at a passing dog...I think she just wanted to play, but I have to admit, I jumped a little since I wasn't aware of the other dog and the only thing between me and Calypso was my camera! ;-)

Caroline and Zach also wanted to be sure to get some pictures at the popular USC Gamecock Cockabooses.

We're looking forward to photographing Caroline and Zach's wedding on June 26! :-)

Wedding: Bo & Casey (Furman University Daniel Chapel)

Bo & Casey were married at Furman University's Daniel Chapel. We started out the day at the Hampton Inn where Casey and her bridesmaids had their hair and makeup done.

Then everyone headed over to the chapel to get dressed.

Just before walking down the aisle...our favorite shot of the day.

The first dance.

The Clemson tiger even made a stop at their reception!

Bridal Portrait: Lindsey (Furman University)

Lindsey was married at Furman University's Daniel Chapel this past weekend. Here are some of her bridal portraits taken at Furman a few weeks ago. The soft lavender walls of Furman's Cherrydale Alumni House coordinated perfectly with her bouquet.

Lindsey also wanted to be sure to include her dog, Chi Chi, in some of her bridal portraits.

Inspired by one of her favorite movies, Lindsey also incorporated some "ruby red slippers" into her bridal ensemble.

Engagement: Katherine & Jeremy

Katherine & Jeremy chose popular Falls Park for their engagement session because it's a special place where they enjoy spending time together. It's always fun to find different angles and new areas at this great location for pictures!

As we entered the park, I asked if there were any places that they like to hang out at when they come to the park and they mentioned a particular bench that they like to sit on, so we made sure to get some shots on that special bench.
