Kiersten & Patrick got married in the gazebo-on-the-lake at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens, surrounded by smiling faces, adorable children and in super-rad matching, green, personalized Converse.

I met up with them at the Morrison House in Old Town to do some portraits around their ‘hood.





Margaret and John were married in the quiet, pretty courtyard at the Old Town Alexandria courthouse, right in the midst of downtown with its cobblestones and brick and very nice light. We traipsed around a couple of blocks and hit up the sweet cobblestones on Prince Street near the water. And hey – that chalk heart was still there!
Amanda and José got married in a lickety-split ceremony in a lawyer’s office in Old Town Alexandria. Then we hit up the surrounding neighborhood to grab some portraits. These two may not have been throwing a huge nuptial bash, but they were plenty cute.
