It’s hard to remember the last time I got the chance to photograph a couple that has been so excited to make it to the alter than Marissa and Drew. The description “head over heels” in love comes to mind, but I’m just not sure that does it justice. The excitement and pure joy emanating from them all day was infectious. Add to that the fact that Drew and I used to work together back at Michelin, and it made everything even more special.
We started off the day at Parlour Nouveau as the ladies got their hair and makeup done by a good friend of Marissa. Shortly after we all headed to Thornblade Country Club where everyone finished up getting ready and Marissa and Drew got to finally see each other. Being a college level golfer, the Thornblade golf course set the perfect backdrop for their bridal party and couples photos. Soon we headed to Brushy Creek Baptist Church for their ceremony where everyone learned the story of how they came to be a couple. Marissa and Drew lived just across the street from each other, and when Marissa popped up in his Sunday school class they immediately recognized each other. Now that they were finally husband and wife, we headed back to Thornblade for a reception filled with lots of great food, outrageous dance moves, and an important victory for the Clemson football team! You have to see this one!
Thanks again guys!!
