I met Nicole my first semester of my freshman year. We were in two classes together, including the hardest English class I’ve ever taken (and I thought I was good at writing ha). After enduring any kind of difficult class together with someone, I think you just become really good friends. There’s nothing like struggle to bring camaraderie, and Nicole definitely helped me through English 103 as we sat in the back and doodled all over our notes with her colored pens. Come to think of it, maybe if we hadn’t been doing that, the class wouldn’t have been as much of a struggle. 🙂  Anyway, I am so glad we have stayed friends through the years because she is incredibly sweet and always a joy to be around! When she started dating Greg, I had a feeling it was something special, and I’m so thrilled that is true. So honored to have been a small part in such a big step for these two and capture some precious moments!
        We drove to the cutest little Christmas tree farm just outside Clemson. The lighting was spectacular, and the owners were so gracious in letting us take photographs there! There was just so much genuine love exuding from this session. SeveraI times I just would turn around from adjusting my camera settings or scouting out our next spot and would catch them holding each other or doing something cute, and I would say, “Wait, that’s perfect. Stay right there!” Love it when I don’t have to pose couples but rather let them tell their genuine love story with how they naturally act around each other. I know you’re going to love it!!
