A color digital photograph of engaged couple, Maria Macias and William Archie captured outside of the AM PM Quick Stop in Hopkins, South Carolina. The couple is sitting on one of the tables of a set of two yellow booths outside of the store. Archie, wearing a grey tank top and black knee-length jean shorts, has his proper right arm around Macias. He is wearing a hat and holds cigarettes, one lit and several loose, in his proper left hand. Macias is wearing a red tank top and light color jeans. She is leaning into Archie with her hands in her lap. Behind them, to the right, an American flag has been hand-painted on the white cement brick wall of the store. Underneath is a sign with printed black text reading [GOD BLESS AMERICA].
