“Though Nick and Crystal booked me in January 2018, I didn’t meet them until their engagement session in Columbia last summer. It was a pleasure getting to know them during this time, and also to hear of their early days as a couple. To read more about the story of how they met, I invite you to check out the blog of their Columbia engagement session…”

Though I meet lots of awesome people doing this job, there are those it seems like you’ve known forever. We first met for their engagement session in Greer, SC. We ran around downtown Greer, then to some picturesque areas in the outskirts of Greenville, ending near Josh’s childhood home. During our drive to one of the locations, Josh learned from me that my son loved trains. Immediately, he gave a call to his father, whom was a long time railroader. He asked his father if he could gather a few pieces of railroad memorabilia for my son. His father obliged and it was such a treat for my son to receive such awesome gifts. Josh certainly didn’t have to do this, but this was the first glimpse I got into seeing how kind of a person he is. During this session I also met…”

A group of guys would often come home with Cameron on the weekends. Collin was one of them. Our friendship started off pretty slow if I remember correctly. Collin was quiet and I was the one who was loud & outgoing. Needless to say, it took him a little bit to warm up to me. Once he warmed up to me, I told him I was sick of calling him by his last name so I called him, ‘Spon.’ Then, our friendship flourished. I enjoyed his presence. I would plan my weekends to hangout with him. Then, I found myself visiting him during the week at the…”
Read More"I moved to Chicago from the UK in February 2014. I didn’t really know anyone here, and so I thought it’d be fun to join ‘OK Cupid’ to see if someone might take pity and show me around. I’d never tried a dating website before, and didn’t have high expectations. I trawled through endless numbers of profiles before finding Fahlyn, who on paper seemed like the perfect match. And here we are, married after the best 5 years of my life. We met in a Tiki bar that sold cocktails from extravagant containers ranging from treasure chests, to octopuses and sea shells. It was great fun, and I was excited by how well we got on. Other dates involved bribing staff at a bowling alley, stuffing our faces with anything but British food, laughing until it hurt at comedy shows, and naming animals at the zoo…”

Ernie was performing some of his raps, and though Cecilia thought he was completely corny, she admired his courage to perform in front of strangers. For their first date, on October 25th, Ernie and Cecilia went to see Evil Dead The Musical in Charlotte…”
Read More“Chris and Amber met during their sophomore year of college at the University of South Carolina. Chris grew up in Raleigh, NC and Amber grew up in Greenville, SC. They started out as next door neighbors, which turned into close friends, which eventually turned into a date night at their favorite burger joint during the fall of their senior year. Dating quickly turned into a long distance relationship between Charleston, SC and Atlanta, GA while Amber was in physical therapy school and Chris started his first sales role after graduating from USC. Fast-forward 3 years and they were finally in the same place again as Amber made the big move to ATL after earning her doctorate. Two years (and two dogs) later, on a Saturday in September as they casually walked the streets in Savannah, he surprised her with a very important…”
