We photographed Dianne and Bradon’s engagement portraits a few weeks ago in downtown Greenville, SC. It was great meeting Brandon for the first time and it was nice seeing Dianne again. I first met Dianne while we were attending Lander University a few years ago. In spending time with them during our photo session, it is clear that they are going to have a happy marriage together.

They are getting married in Niagara Falls next July which will make for a beautiful wedding.

Here are a few of our favorites from the day. Cheers. [M]We couldn’t decide which kissing shot we liked best? What do you think? 1st or 2nd?I love this shot Vernice took of them!Classic.Thank you guys again for allowing us to capture your love together.  We’ll see you soon.

Hello all! I hope everyone is staying warm and cozy!

I just wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU for all the support from our blog readers. You guys have been absolutely amazing! Matthew and I feel so blessed that we have such positive people that truly care about our photography and growing business. From the blog comments to the 1, 013 (and counting) fans on Facebook, you all have shown such great encouragement. The love definitely drives our determination to make Hammett Photography a success and we are forever grateful.

As Matthew was editing last night, he came across this awesome picture of Brenson. He found it at the right time because, I was just about to give my ‘There is not enough hours in the day! How are we ever going to get all this stuff done?!’ nightly monologue. The image instantly made me smile and seeing Brenson’s adorable face jolted me back to why we love photography so so so much. It’s that undeniable rush you get when you see someone you love captured in a unique way. The picture is good, yes … but, it’s the story behind it that makes it amazing. It’s the history and the future all wrapped into one. Isn’t that great?! Isn’t that what it’s all about?!

There’s more to come from Brenson’s fun photo shoot … so stay tuned! We hope this photograph of our nephew makes your cold and rainy day a little brighter. Matthew and I are a little biased but, it made our whole entire year. [V]

Matthew and I were so excited when Hunter asked us to do a “Trash The Dress” session the morning after their wedding. It was our very first one and we loved every second of it! The sunrise was amazing and the newlyweds were still beaming from their “I do’s.”

Here are some of our favorites and make sure you check out the slideshow … the link is found at the end. Enjoy! [V]The sky was truly a beautiful sight to see.I love the next couple of images Matthew captured … so intimate!The Burriers were working the camera big time!
