South Carolina Wedding Photography | Christian & Emily | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

This past weekend my BROTHER GOT MARRIED!!!!!! It was been such a packed week as my whole family packed up and flew to South Carolina to celebrate his wedding. We decided to do a sunrise first look at Pretty Place and I seriously think my heart stopped editing these photos! (Marcus resuscitated me a couple of times so no worries there ;) ) Definitely make it to the end to see these photos YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS THEM.

  Christian and Emily's wedding day welcomed them with a sunny south carolina day! Both laid back and ready to be married the day reflected their happy go lucky attitudes. It was important to them both that the wedding was close to home so what better place than a Emily's childhood home!  The simple backyard wedding fit their hearts desire of just relaxing with family and friends!  Being so close we made our way to furman university for some more room for Wedding party photos and family formals!! Family formals were interesting as my dad just filled his cell phone with ALL the pictures!  We were just joking around with friends in between photos, which is always the best when your surrounded by people that love you.

The day could not have been more beautiful as a whole. Please enjoy their wedding photos!

PS -  A local barn cat just had kittens two weeks ago at their house! The kitten in the photo details was Emily's favorite that she cuddled with to destress from all the last minute wedding planning!

Furman University Elopement Photography| Events at the Davenport Wedding Photography | Heidi & Josh

Heidi, the Canadian hardworking girl, fell for Josh, a playful Italian.  When they had first meet it was through a mutual friend, but at the time Heidi was unavailable to date.
As time went on and their conversations grew deeper;so did their affection for one another.  Heidi's leap year birthday came up and she received the best birthday present, Josh's wedding vows. They had a small courthouse wedding surrounded by a couple of friends and a whole lot of love. They both wanted to share their love with others and decided to hold a reception at the Davenport in Greer, to which Marcus and myself were invited.
This was my first elopement and boy did I love it!! My favorite part of the day was the bride and groom portraits!! Having the opportunity to focus on just these two love birds was definitely the highlight of our East Coast Trip!
Josh's face seeing Heidi for the first time all dressed up and prettier up in her wedding dress was priceless.  

So blessed to be a part of Heidi and Josh's unconventional love story and elopement; I loved every moment.
