Old Town Alexandria Engagement Photos

It was just starting to warm up this Spring when we captured these Old Town Alexandria engagement photos! I love recommending engagement sessions to all of my wedding couples. It’s an opportunity for us to get to know each other before the big day! As a wedding photographer, I would much rather be the face of an old friend rather than a stranger when I arrive on your wedding day.

Sarah and Ben actually used to lived right in Old Town Alexandria, which I thought made this session extra fun! Ben really wanted pictures in front of the water. I love how during this session we explored two waterfront locations in Old Town. The both offer those romantic waterfront views. The kicker is that you would never guess how crowded one of the water locations was. I specifically asked Sarah and Ben if they were okay in front of the crowd, and we rolled with it for a few minutes before deciding to explore some other charming street corners. One of my favorite things about Old Town is that every corner is different. So, no engagement session here is exactly the same!

I think Sarah and Ben compliment each other beautifully as a couple. With her quick wits and laughter, and his stoic personality (until you really get to know him I hear), it’s the perfect example of opposites attracting. Sarah and Ben, it was so special to meet you both and capture your Old Town Alexandria engagement photos. I can’t wait for your wedding day!
