Brandi + Sam First Look | Lakeside Wedding at the Madren Center in Clemson, SC

When you go to a wedding you never quite know what to expect. Every family I’ve worked with is different – and the wedding party can be crazy, serious, fun, slow, fast, or anything in between… but that’s one of the things I love about my job – telling the story of a couple and the closest people in their lives never gets old because I never document the exact same story twice!

I had no doubt when I arrived that Brandi and Sam’s wedding was going to be one of those crazy fun kind of weddings. The champagne was already flowing and everyone was already having a great time!

The Warren and Virginia Owen Pavilion on the Walker Golf Course was the perfect location for their wedding since these Clemson grads felt at home with the tigers. The weather was beautiful and our view of sunset over Lake Hartwell was breathtaking.

The wedding party was so fun it felt hard keeping track of the time throughout the day! I mentioned to Brandi’s father after the wedding how impressed I was with Brandi and Sam’s friends. Every single bridesmaid and groomsman worked hard to lift up and celebrate Brandi and Sam. Not everyone has the luxury of such great friends! Watching that kind of deep friendship was refreshing and I was excited to see this amazing couple take their next step in life together too.

Congratulations to Sam and Brandi!
