Fall Engagement Session near Columbia, SC

Natalie and Chaz’s engagement session was no easy task to schedule after all of this year’s rain! After rescheduling numerous times due to this year’s record rainfall and flooding, we finally lucked out with a weekend day when they were available, and we met in Peak, SC at the Alston Trailhead for their plaid- and pumpkin- themed engagement session! It was a chilly day, and pretty overcast, but with their good looks and my knowledge of lighting, we had no trouble capturing exactly what they had envisioned for their engagement portraits.

Natalie and Chaz met while he was in school at the University of South Carolina, and they fell in love over their shared enthusiasm for the Gamecocks, particularly Gamecock football, so a fall-themed, engagement session during football season was completely ideal for them!

This is probably my favorite image from their entire engagement session. Natalie is just stunning!

This series of photos is my other favorite. That plaid blanket and the fall colors behind them created the perfect pop for their engagement photos.

We spent an hour or two trekking around the Alston Trailhead, and Chaz and Natalie were awesome! They were totally game for all of the poses and locations I suggested, and trusted that even though there were at least 5 other sessions occurring here at the time, I knew how to photograph them as if they had the whole place to themselves. This location is very popular for Columbia, SC photographers, but there is plenty of room for everyone! engagement session in the woods walking holding handsengagement photo kissing on bridge fall

Happy anniversary to one of the most beautiful wed Happy anniversary to one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever photographed … yes I’m a maximalist on the inside, and there’s no such thing as too many florals!
Something about a sunrise session just has a diffe Something about a sunrise session just has a different kind of magic. I loved spending the morning with Therese and Nate on this perfectly sunny, vibrant morning…and I’m pretty sure they loved the singing and history facts from Hamilton that I provided. (YOU try photographing all this without singing, “I raised funds in DC for the Washington Monument {she tells my stooorryyy}”…if you know Hamilton the musical, there’s no way you can just FYI).
This time of year, even though it feels like a sau This time of year, even though it feels like a sauna outside, I just adore the lushness of the colors around us. This is when you can truly see all the different landscapes our beautiful state provides…and there’s no better place for that than at SC Botanical Gardens! I’m absolutely drooling over all of the color and sunlight from this amazing family session a few days ago!

Every single vendor — not to mention the fantastic family and friends who crossed the Atlantic — made for a perfectly incredible weekend, and I have no shortage photos to show for it!
