Old Town Alexandria Wedding Engagement Portraits

/in , /by

It’s almost summer and wedding and wedding engagement portrait season is upon us. Taking advantage of a gorgeous sunny day recently in Old Town Alexandria, it was such a pleasure to spend time with J+C for their engagement portrait session. It’s always exciting for me to find new and different (at least for me!) spots throughout the city. For instance, I knew about the Wilkes Tunnel was there but in all my photography in Old Town, I had never done any photos there. I’m so glad we did this time! And kudos to whoever painted that garage door at the Torpedo Factory. That was a late in the day find. I am really looking forward to their Carnegie Institution for Science wedding in October this year!

Selina + Dan’s wedding – Old Town Alexandria – May 26, 2012

/in /by

Old Town Alexandria is a very special place for Selina and Dan. They got engaged on the waterfront and on the very warm Saturday of Memorial Day weekend they got married there. It was a classic Old Town event. They started the day at historic Christ Church, where Washington and Robert E. Lee were regular worshippers.  From there it was down to their party at the Torpedo Factory. During the course of the day they navigated the bikes of Rolling Thunder –a Memorial Day staple around town, and they were graciously escorted to a private dock at the bottom of King St. for a quick portrait session. And we even squeezed in a few minutes near the  spot where they got engaged in Waterfront Park. Among my favorite photos from the day are Selina and Dan’s first dance. The smiles on their faces just never quit…even when a slight glitch in the song delayed the action for a few minutes. The rest of the night the party was a big dancing affair culminating in the cake cutting and singing of an Arsenal FC fight song while cutting the groom’s cake. Let’s just say Dan’s a fan.

Selina + Dan are an Old Town couple. We started the engagement shoot at the spot they got engaged in Waterfront Park and then wandered through the gorgeous spring sunlight up King St. to Carlyle House gardens. I can’t wait for their Memorial Day weekend wedding in….Old Town!
