High School Marching Band State 2A and 4A

Touch of Grace Photography had the honor of being the offical photographers for the South Carolina Band Directors Association Division AA/AAAA State Marching Championship at Batesburg-Leesville High School.  We worked from 5am till well after midnight!  Our photographer, Dana, was in heaven having been a band member and competing in this very competition when she was in High School.

Here are just a few of the over ten thousand photographs we took that day:

Cotillion photo shoot!

Sally, a Furman University student, needed her cotillion photo ASAP. We did the traditional cotillion pose and background.

Trash the Dress!

Had a great time shooting another Trash The Dress session today. Shot today with Mike from Unforgettable Wedding Video. He asked me to join him to photograph one of his brides. It was great to see him in action and learn what other photographers do for a Trash the Dress session. Honestly, we didn't get a chance to trash the dress as much as I thought we would, but just the ability to not worry about it getting a little dirty allowed us to get creative and artsy!

Upstate History is made!

Upstate History is made, well, at least for two lucky people. Michelle and Andy were married at the Upstate History Museum in Downtown Greenville. We had the pleasure of photographing Andy and his Groomsmen at the always beautiful Falls Park before the ceremony. While Michelle and her lovely attendants were busy getting ready!

This is truly a unique wedding venue, with its historic building facades and horseshoe staircase. Michelle and Andy enjoyed their wedding day, and all of their family and friends with them.

The reception was also held there, with enough food to feed a small army! The guests were up to the challenge, and the revelry continued into the night, until the happy couple had to leave to get some rest before the honeymoon!

Ballerina Katie

Katie, a dancer at Southern Dance Connection, allowed us to do a ballet shoot with her at our studio and at a local warehouse that looked really unique. We stared with some great dance shots and a photo of her and all the ballet shoes she has gone through in her life. Then we moved to a really neat location that had some graffiti. It was a fun day with ballet!

Baby Lucas

Virginia brought her son, Lucas over for some baby shots. Wow what a little cutie! What do you think?
