With Alli living in Hattiesburg and Adam in Canton, the teens became pen pals and wrote endearing letters back and forth. Over the years, their correspondence dwindled as distance got in the way. Adam founded a software development company at seventeen but admits, “I have always been interested in photography!” He began shooting films and photographing friends. Alli also had a knack for taking pictures. Adam says sweetly, “Back at space camp, I remember Alli running around with a disposable camera. She was the designated photographer for her family even though she didn’t have a nice camera.”
With Adam’s ten years of shooting experience, the two began attending workshops to perfect their wedding photography skills. During their first year of marriage, Adam and Alli prayerfully opened their own business, Adam + Alli Photography.
