We were dodging summer rain storms on the evening of Abbie & John’s downtown Columbia engagement session, but fortunately for us the timing worked out perfectly- right between clouds!  I was so excited that Abbie’s adorable little fur babies could join us for their portrait.  We started the day at the South Carolina State House!

I adore this little “I loved her first” chalkboard sign for her handsome doggie!  How cute is that?!

Our second location was the USC Horseshoe!

Here’s another cute chalkboard idea.  Abbie’s talented sister wrote all the signs herself!  I love the chunky, stylish jewelry that Abbie chose to accessorize her engagement session outfit.

Our last stop was the Gamecock gate at the USC Alumni Center.  Since John is a Clemson fan he, of course, wore his tiger paw shirt!  Abbie’s sister brought some scrabble pieces so we could add a little extra L-O-V-E to the session!  I can’t wait for Abbie & John’s Spring 2017 wedding!
