They always say that when you meet “the one,” you just know. Well, after Erin and Paul first met in spring of 2007, it was only a matter of weeks before she had moved to Georgia and they were engaged! I was really excited about their wedding because of their fairy tale story and also because Erin is part of a group of friends whose weddings I’ve been honored to photograph.

Erin and Paul were married at the same small church in Spartanburg where her parents and several other family members also were married.

The stained glass windows were amazing–very thick glass with the most vibrant colors you’ve ever seen! The sun just streamed in all throughout the ceremony.

The basement had really funky murals that the youth group must have painted. Perfect backdrop for some dramatic portraits…

Erin’s three nephews were all involved in the wedding, and they were so excited to be a part of the day. The little ring bearer was SO excited that Aunt Erin said he could keep the ring pillow! He was the first person to congratulate them after the ceremony. 🙂

I love this one! How amazing is the light from those windows??

Some happy “alone time” before moving on the reception. I’m going to have to do a separate post for the reception–just too many to choose from!

Would it be an Amy Clifton wedding without a shoe-shot? Of course not!

Congratulations Erin and Paul!

Since I just started my blog a few months ago, I wanted to showcase some weddings even though they are from last year. Myra and Mark were married during an outdoor ceremony at Creekside Plantation last October and had the perfect fall-themed wedding. I love fall, and their decorations were all about bright oranges and deep reds, pumpkins, sunflowers, and fall leaves. Two of Myra’s nieces were the flower girls, and instead of throwing flower petals, they lined the aisle with fall leaves. This photo of the girls is one of my all-time favorites that I’ve ever taken!

Mark proposed to Myra with a Taco Bell sauce pack that said “Will you marry me?” He gets the award for most creative proposal ever!

They have such a sweet love between them!

Here are a couple of the less traditional portraits we took during Myra’s bridal portrait session. I love being able to get creative during bridal portraits!

M & M–It was such an honor to be a part of your wedding day and to share that with your family!
