Brad & Kaitlin Engagement | Downtown Alexandria, Virginia Photographer

I’m surprised this was my first time getting the chance to photograph an engagement session downtown Alexandria! Most of my clients I guess are pretty centralized around where I live and not necessarily out towards DC. But I am SO glad I finally made my way out there because I love new spaces! Even though, unfamiliar, it creates an excitement of spontaneity!

I met with Brad and Kaitlin only just a couple months ago and now we are preparing for their wedding only now less than two months away!!! I was excited about their engagement session and seeing them together in front of the camera was so fun! They were full of laughs and smiles the entire time! 🙂 Cannot wait for their wedding day!!!

Thank you Kaitlin and Brad for a fabulous session in downtown Alexandria and looking forward to your wedding day only months away! Begin the countdown! 🙂 Enjoy the preview!
