Spartanburg Photographer | Tanya

I am mixing things up a bit and taking a break from posting fun families and posting this beautiful lady today!!  I can’t pin point the exact moment when I met Tanya, but it was a while back and I am ohh so thankful that God placed her and her family in my life!!  Tanya is such a sweet sweet woman of God & it has been such a joy to get to know her over the years.  She was always a face I sought out on Sunday mornings at church and boy have I missed seeing her and keeping up with her & her crazy bunch of men that she calls hers!!!  Tanya is mom to four boys (well they will kill me for calling them boys 🙂 but when you’re a fellow mom you can do that sort of thing) and the three youngest (especially the two youngest… whom I got to know when I helped with the youth group at our church in Texas they both were in high school at the time so I was able to get to know the two of them) have been so much fun to get to know over the years (the oldest was already out of the house when I met them)!!  I have photographed two of Tanya & Jeff’s sons senior photos and last December had the privilege of photographing them as an entire family, I have loved getting to know and become friends with this family & having this family in front of my camera over the years!!  Tanya contacted me back in August when I was in town to photograph a wedding and asked me to go ahead and get just her on my calendar in December and I was sooo soo excited… Y’all having just Tanya in front of my camera was a treat!!!  I loved getting to spend time with her (even if it was for a super short amount of time) and seeing her laugh and just be her!!  Tanya, you are a beautiful woman inside & out and I am soo very honored to call you a friend.  Thank you for wanting me to take photos of you, I LOVED it!!!!

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.

I grew up in a house full of photos. My dad or I when I was old enough, was always behind a camera…family dinners, road trips, Sunday afternoons that probably didn’t seem worth documenting but somehow always were. That’s where I fell in love with this work. And somewhere along the way, I also learned […]

Meredith and J.G. invited their family and friends to the Piermont Cottage, which is part of Old Edwards Inn for brunch and farewells the morning after their wedding day. 
The morning was full stories that were filled with laughter and joy!! It was the perfect way to end an amazing weekend. Venue  | The Farm […]

Meredith and John Grady were married on a beautiful, Friday afternoon in July in Highlands, North Carolina. Meredith began her day at the Farm at Old Edwards Inn, surrounded by so many incredible women in her life. The morning was full of joy, love, and an abundance of happy tears. After Meredith slipped into her […]
