Upstate I Do Wedding | Wyche Pavilion

Last September (yes I’ve been a little slow in posting these… and I don’t know why because y’all this reception design was AMAZING!!!) Upstate I Do reached out to me to see if I was available oen Saturday to come in and photograph strictly for their portfolio at a wedding they were doing.  Y’all I was soo honored!! As a wedding photographer I may get 30 minutes if I’m lucky with reception details and no guests.. usually it’s like 2 minutes 🙂 …. so to get to go in and photograph strictly reception details for 2 hours was SOOOOO fun!!  The details & florals were incredible and I still smile when I think about this opportunity I had to shoot for Upstate I do!!!  Ali & Bri, thank y’all so much for asking me to do this for y’all!!!

Rachel & Ben were married on an incredible fall weekend in the upstate of South Carolina.  The weekend started out with family and friends celebrating these two at the Greenville Country Club for the rehearsal dinner.  The included hugs, the most beautiful toasts, and Ben grabbing his guitar and playing/singing for guests.  That evening set […]

For the last few years I’ve photographed Ballet Spartanburg’s performances of the Nutcracker.  It is an honor to capture these incredible students and professional dancers that share the stage for this family favorite in the heart of Spartanburg, SC.  Most years I capture the dress rehearsals, this past year due to a wedding in Charleston […]
