I’m so excited to share Mike & Becca’s FUN, carefree, and classic Old Town Alexandria engagement session! I can’t put into words how hilarious these two are!! They had me cracking up their entire shoot and I kept telling them I needed to try to focus on taking photos instead of just laughing at all of their jokes and mannerisms! It’s evident that having fun together is at the forefront of Becca and Mike’s relationship. I really had way too much fun with these two and that translated into SO many favorite photos! Their gallery is just so full of joy that it makes me that much more excited for their wedding day!
With the amount of times I’ve taken engagement photos in Old Town Alexandria, you would think that I’d be running out of new places to shoot and unique spots to find… but nope! Somehow I have not traversed the entirety of Old Town JUST yet and I’m still finding cute little houses to shoot in front of that I’ve never seen before. The one that we started the shoot in front of is just perfect! The kids were actually getting home from school when we were shooting in front of their gate and it was as hilarious as it was awkward. It made the house REAL… like, somebody lives here in this perfect white house with the navy blue shutters. Thankful for the kind people of Alexandria that are always willing to let me shoot out front of their property several times a year.
As engagement session season winds to a close, I’m reminded of shoots like Becca and Mike’s, where not only gorgeous images were made but also really fun memories. I can only hope that their session was as memorable for Becca and Mike as it was for me!! I’ll forever love these photos because of it! I can’t wait for their wedding day to get here… it’s the first one I’m shooting in 2018! The best start to my year.
