Jessica & Jon Ralph | Wedding

Jessica & Jon Ralph’s G U E S T Blog:

{Our story: John Ralph and I met in 9th grade and were friends throughout high school. He likes to say I “never gave him the time of day”, being the cheerleader from the rival high school, but I always considered him to be someone I admired. He had more drive than most guys and I always knew I would hear about the great things he would accomplish one day. Little did I know, I would be celebrating those accomplishments with him. After we both went our separate ways in college we lost communication for a while. Thanks to social networking (facebook and old school instant messaging) we reconnected in our second year of college. John Ralph invited me to be his date to his sisters debutant ball over christmas break. That night was when things between us started to change into something more than “just friends”. The following february I flew to new york to visit him at West Point and see the big apple. That weekend we knew we were onto something good. Three years, and lots of phone calls, plane rides, and letters later, John Ralph decided to put an end to our long distance relationship by asking me to marry him during a trip to Charleston. We planned a wedding in three weeks so we could move to Italy together for his job (he is an officer in the US Army). And the rest is history!}

erin + ryan | fun love

Erin and Ryan were married at the Prince of Peace Catholic Church in Taylors, SC with a reception to follow at the Willow Creek Ranch in Landrum, SC. The Church was one of the most beautiful Catholic Church we have seen in a long time… huge doors, high ceilings, great lighting… And the Reception site, just AMAZING. You drive up to this beautiful house, with a river that runs into a ‘pond’ in the back, a beautiful red barn that over looked the pond… Okay… I really could go on for days talking about both of these places, let’s skip to this FUN — and I mean FUN — couple.

 

Now, the wedding day was the first time that we got to meet the beautiful couple because they had scheduled to do the ‘day after’ session with us after their honeymoon.  Erica and I like to meet our clients before we shoot them so we can get a feel for their personalities, who they are, what they expect, etc. — But we didn’t need to do that with Erin and Ryan because they were so EASY to photograph. They off the bat had these fun, easy going personalities. We didn’t need to loosen them up to the camera, they were naturals — I’m not just saying this to be nice, they really were!! The E-N-T-I-R-E bridal party was that way! Check out our photos and let us know what you think!

 

SEE! Now, tell me this crew was not fun! Naturals, right? We were so excited that Erin and Ryan decided to use Tomme Hilton Gallery as their photographers! These are the experinces we thrive on!

 

Thank you Erin and Ryan!

{Guest Blog} Lindsey and Daniel

Remember Lindsey and Daniel? I cannot emphasize enough… Their wedding was such a great wedding! Lindsey gave us the pleasure of writing a post for our {Guest Blog}. Read about their experience with Tomme Hilton Gallery.

Our wedding was March 27, 2010 at The Woodlands Inn and Resort in Summerville, SC.

When we got engaged and sat down to do some “budget planning,” one of the first questions our parents asked us was very simple….what is most important to you? Our answer was PHOTOGRAPHER. We wanted a fun photographer and photographs that we would always cherish.

Fast forward several months later and while in a tuxedo shop I noticed some framed artwork that was just amazing.  I got the photographers card and thus began to “stalk” her.  Tomme’s work was exactly what we wanted…fun, romantic, and different.  I never even contacted another photographer because I felt so confident in her work.

We first met Tomme when we shot our engagement photos and both Daniel and I were so nervous and excited at the same time. But the moment she told Daniel he reminded her of Justin Timberlake, he was SOLD : ) She was everything I had ever wished in a photographer: easy going, hilarious, and creative.

I got to hang with her again for my bridal portraits and we had the best time. So good in fact that I was yawning from exhaustion : )



The entire wedding morning all I was thinking was “when is Tomme getting here?” I felt the day would be complete when I would see her and her camera.  She didn’t disappoint.  Along with Erica and Jim, they dealt with a CRAZY set of friends and family and even brought fun props for the reception. [Check out our wedding photos, posted by Tomme.]

Of the many things we will remember from this wedding experience, Tomme Hilton and her photos are by far the most special.  We hope to work with her again in the future.
