Ellie Bridal Portraits | Murray Hill, Leesburg Virginia Photographer

You remember the gorgeous Ellie from her Mount Vernon Engagement session to her perfect rustic classy wedding at Murray Hill back in June! Ellie is one of the most kind hearted, sweet, God loving woman I have met and I am so honored to have gone through this journey with her through her engagement and wedding day! 🙂 Today, I want to share her lovely bridal session! We met up at Murray Hill weeks before her wedding day and it was so nice to have that time to get excited for her wedding day! Doing the bridal session before the wedding really set in the reality of the fact that she was getting married to the love of her life! And Ellie rocked the session!

Thanks for a fun and wonderful session! I know you and Scott must be enjoying the married life and I look forward to seeing you in the near future! 🙂 xoxo
