Erika + Christian engagement

A warm and gorgeous Saturday in Old Town was the setting for Erika and Christian’s engagement shoot last week. So it was just a little bit crowded. Luckily we chose to mostly be off the beaten path and to soak up the charm of Alexandria’s side streets. The light was amazing but it was really windy. It didn’t affect us much (as long as Erika’s hair was blowing with the wind) but it showed up in some of the backlit photos where everything that flying around in the air is captured. Pollen, twigs, dust, you name it. We had fun with their puppy Hercules and taking the King St. trolley and just strolling along King St. looking for fun spots to shoot. They’re getting married on 10-10-10 so of course, I’m looking forward to their fall wedding!
