Spartanburg Photographer | Melissa, Matt, & Cooper!!!

Kendra Martin Photography | Greenville, SC Wedding Photographer

First off… I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE (can I say it enough?!?!?!?!?!) that I’m now within DRIVING distance of my best friend… selfishly, I wish the 2 hours and 15 minutes was more like 15 minutes, but just a highway away will do!!!!!!!!  Anyways, on to what this blog is about :)…. One of my FAVORITE things about being a photographer is getting to photograph & document those dearest to me.  There’s just something about photographing family & friends that makes me fall in love with what I do over and over again!!!  Well we headed back “home” for a VERY short (like less than 24 hours) visit at the beginning of the month and I was able to both hang out & photograph my best friend & her little family (and when I say photograph… we just snapped literally like 5 minutes worth of photos 🙂 but hey it was still life giving and I loved those 5 minutes!!!!)  You may recognize these two from the wedding (as in that I snapped randomly throughout her day since I was in her wedding & Kenzie was the flower girl… should have brought a babysitter a long that day to take more photos… I digress!!) or engagement photos I took of them over the last year…. BUT you won’t recognize COOPER!!!!!  Cooper is the newest addition to this little family & he is a total sweet heart (yes he’s a wild, fun, crazy puppy) but he totally was fascinated with Kenzie & she with him… and he is just so stinking cute & I know Matt & Melissa are so in love with him and so am I!!!!!!  Matt, Melissa & Cooper 😉 it was my pleasure to capture y’alls first family photo!!! LOVE Y’ALL!!!!!!!

Photography is in my blood and seeking truth is in my soul. Which is a deep way of saying, I’ve loved to take photos for a really long time, y’all. I’d love to share my story with you then listen to yours.

When someone says “we’re really drawn to candid wedding photos,” I know exactly what they mean, but I also know it means something different to every couple. And honestly? That’s part of what I love about it. Because candid doesn’t mean chaotic, and it definitely doesn’t mean careless.  Candid means intentional presence. It means pausing […]

I took a trip to Knoxville, TN to document Sarah & Andy’s engagement session.  They wanted to do their session where they will be getting married in 2026 and it was the best decision ever!  Not only did I get to meet and hang out with Sarah & Andy, but I also was able to […]

Greenville, you’ve been a beautiful backdrop—but lately, I’ve fallen hard for something else: private estate weddings. If you’re dreaming of tying the knot somewhere that’s more your world than a checklist, a family home‑turned‑wedding‑day‑stage is where the real magic happens. Why private estates feel so right Authentic comfort from beginning to end It’s your space. […]
