A few Sunday’s ago I met Amy & Hayden in downtown Spartanburg for their engagement session and y’all it was the most beautiful March evening!!  We started the session with their two fur pups and y’all they are the sweetest dogs!! I totally had to do a little barking and acting crazy to get the […]

Back in February I got a good portion of my team (picture dancing excited emjoi right here because I’m doing a happy dance with even typing “team”) together to go through a little training and practice prior to weddings starting in a few weeks.

A few weeks ago I met up with a fellow photographer for […]
