This downtown Columbia engagement photography session was tons of fun! While most of our engagement sessions have a woodsy backdrop, we love the downtown area too. There is so much to explore… from Broadway to the alleys! We spent some time near the huge wall mural next to the Alpine Shop, then headed to the picturesque Alley A for a few more photos.

More about this downtown Columbia engagement photography session:

Columbia, more affectionately called CoMo to us locals, has such a colorful and hip downtown space. We’ve done a few urban engagement sessions here and love the challenge of creating clean compositions amongst a busy background! Columbia has done an incredible job revitalizing the alleys of downtown. One of our favorite coffee spots, Shortwave, is located in Alley A. If you haven’t checked it out yet, put that at the top of your list today!  :)
