Candice’s Glamour Shoot

Touch of Grace Photography has a nice little studio.  Candice came over for some studio shots and we instead ended up shooting right outside the back of the studio since the weather was so perfect.  I took my studio lights out to the field and we got some beautiful shots for her modeling portfolio.  Here are a few of her model shots!

Rebecca and Bill’s Wedding Day at the Clemson Botanical Gardens and the Grand Ballroom of the Madren Center.

Rebecca and Bill weren’t the normal wedding couple.  Both of them are United States Army Lieutenants!  They had their ceremony at the Amphitheater in the South Carolina Botanical Gardens.  After a wonderful ceremony, Bill and Rebecca joined me for a quick tour of Clemson!  We stopped for photos at a beautiful bridge and inside the Clemson University’s Death Valley Stadium. (Access we had arranged and ready to go!)  After letting the two of them have a bit of time alone at the stadium as husband and wife, we drove over to their reception at the Madren Center for a great night of rejoicing…
