We all held our breath when the forecast for this week did not look promising weather-wise, but sure enough, the sky gods smiled upon us and we were blessed with some soft light for their engagement session.

This couple wanted something rustic and outdoors for their engagement session, I recommended 48 Fields to them as it was a good location that could provide mountains and greenery. Also, since I photograph at this venue so much, I knew all the good spots 🙂

Marjan and Andrew met me at Virginia’s State Arboretum (Blandy Experimental Farm) for their engagement session. This is becoming a new favorite as there is no permit required and the scenery is gorgeous. Not to mention May/June greenery is lovely and soft too which makes it perfect for portraits.

We started near the historic ruins then we went to the waterfront for photos. This is one of my absolute favorite engagement sessions from the year. Holly’s dress from Azazie gave me all the heart eyes and was the perfect pop to the green background.

Since Alexandria is a city so near and dear to these two – and they wanted that historic vibe – we met up near the Waterfront and made our way around a couple of blocks and wrapped up near the arena. Their Old Town Alexandria engagement session turned out to be everything Cat wanted: greenery with cobblestone.

As a Michigan Native – but former Texas resident – I get SUPER pumped when I meet other Michiganders in the DC area. Especially clients. Que Ryan’s message via The Knot. Immediately we struck up a conversation about Michigan – where we lived, where we went to school, how we ended up out this way. […]

I loved my time with McKenzie and Jared and loved the fact they trusted me with some crazy ideas…Like traveling down the ways to the reflecting pool area when that was not a part of the original game plan. We spent sometime around the Memorial before we headed down and found the most gorgeous weeping willow. I’ve seen this tree in a handful of my friend’s images, just never knew where it was! Now it is forever a favorite spot and I can’t wait to take my couple next month there.

What I love the most about this couple is their easy-going mentality when it came to photos; Jasmine told me she already favors those in-the-moment photos. With a mixture of prompts, poses, and jokes for photos, we wandered around the property for different backdrops and opportunities with the residents – the goats, chickens, etc. – the wild turkeys weren’t having it though.
