Camey and Jared’s Engagement Session was such a source of hope for me!  We got together last week, in the midst of uncertainty, and celebrated their Engagement with these portraits!!  Life has changed so much, but as we talked we all agreed that the slower pace of life and the understood need to stay home has been refreshing.  Yes, we are excited to meet our new normal, but we’re thankful for the new perspective this time has given us.  We had such a great time together – really, every time I laughed into my mask, my viewfinder fogged up!

Camey and Jared are getting married this September in Greenville!!!  But first, I must tell you how they met and connected!  They met through while on the swim team at Ohio State University in Camey’s freshman year!  Jared was a year older than Camey and actually transferred to University of South Carolina after that year.  They lost touch, but after Camey moved to Columbia, SC for a job they reconnected when they rode together with friend to a Florida Georgia Line Concert.

Now, I love any proposal story that includes a photographer ready to capture the surprise moment.  Camey’s family and Jared’s family were all on vacation together and planned a large family photo shoot.  After a few group photos, Jared pulled Camey in front of their families, got down on one knee and popped the question!
