Spartanburg Wedding Photographer | Leandro & Chrissa

In 2009 on a trip to Brazil with my church I met Leandro.  Leandro was a translator for us as well part of our team when we were there & y’all he is one of those people that you want to know and have as a friend… and for me I’ve been lucky enough to call him a friend and brother!!  This is a guy who loves people & Jesus and serves both with all that he has.  Two summers ago he came to the states to work alongside my parents at Camp Rockfish & Retreat Center so it’s been so fun to get to catch up in person every now and again!!!  Last summer when we were visiting him I was hearing about a young lady who he had just ventured to D.C. to visit (Chrissa has been a missionary in the Dominican Republic) while she was “home”.  Well between a few visits here and there, calls & emails… these two fell in love and come May will be saying “I do” and serving along side each other!!  When they decided on a wedding date I was soo soo bummed because I already have a wedding on that day but so excited that even though I can’t document their wedding day I could take their engagement photos.  Chrissa flew back to the states a few weeks ago and surprised Leandro & on that visit these two made the trip to Spartanburg for their engagement session and I am soo soo glad I finally got to meet Chrissa and also have them in front of my camera documenting them as a couple!!  As you’ll see these two are pretty smitten with one another so it made my job crazy easy!!!  I am so excited to share these images!!  Here are a few of my favorites from our time together!!
