Engagement Session at Adams Pond in Columbia, SC

Liz and Patrick are getting married this month at Adams Pond, so we knew right away there was no better place to take their engagement photos than the venue where they’ll say “I do”—especially since it meant including all four of their dogs! As Columbia, SC wedding photographers, we always tell couples to pick a spot that feels like them, and Adams Pond was perfect with its mossy oaks, quiet water, and soft sunset light. Adding their dogs made the shoot even more personal, playful, and full of real moments they’ll remember forever. Each pup brought their own vibe—some silly, some shy, and all clearly part of the family. We love when couples bring their pets to engagement sessions because it breaks the ice and adds so much personality to the gallery. You can also see more of our work with couples across the Southeast on our couples page, or contact us to start planning your shoot. Adams Pond remains one of our favorite venues in the area—not just for weddings but for sessions like this that tell a full story. From the first “yes” to the big day and beyond, we love helping couples capture every chapter, and this session was the perfect reminder that love—and a few wagging tails—makes the best kind of story. If you’re dreaming of engagement photos at Adams Pond, we’d love to be the ones behind the lens.
