Allison & Jon's Engagement Portraits in Downtown Greenville & Falls Park

Quick story before we jump into some Engagement Portraits: We've been photographing weddings and engagement portraits in Greenville for about 6 years now but from time to time we still get asked "Have you guys ever photographed around that brick pavilion downtown? You know, the one by the river?" We just have to chuckle to ourselves and say "Yeah, once or twice". ;) The Wyche Pavilion (also referred to as Larkins) is one of the most iconic spots in Greenville, and for good reason! It's got a lot of character and conveys a certain historic charm in the middle of what is becoming a somewhat modern city center. Plus so many of our couples have their weddings or receptions at or near Larkins or, if not, at least want a taste of it for their engagement portraits. Despite having photographed there on many occasions we always strive to make each couple's portraits unique by finding new spots or maybe photographing the usual spots in a new and interesting way.

Now back to our regularly scheduled blogging...

Allison and Jon happen to be having their reception at Larkin's Cabaret Room in July. Since they love the look of downtown we all decided to photograph around the Wyche Pavilion and Falls Park for their Engagement Portraits.

Here are some of our favorites from their session:




Nothing like a bottle of wine to get a portrait session off to a great start!





Love how you can see a bit of the Greenville skyline in the glass reflection.





Doesn't Allison look amazing!


And Jon's not so bad himself.




And this is what happens when a simple "lift and kiss" goes horribly wrong and turns into a wedgie. Sorry Allison. This was too funny not to post. Please forgive us!
