Ronee & Bill | Old Town Alexandria engagement

Ronee and Bill are friends of mine. In fact, way on back in the day, I lived in the same house as Bill. It's funny how we all grow up - just a couple years ago we were all living in this group house to save money. Now here I am photographing their engagement and soon their wedding! Lucky for me, I have very cute friends. street photography engagement photos in old town We hit up Old Town Alexandria, where they spent plenty of time before moving onwards and upwards into the big city. engagement session in old town alexandria The site of their very first date. engagement photos at misha's coffee I'm super mad in love with Ronee's freckles. engagement photos in alexandria, va old town alexandria engagement photography engagement photos in alexandria's old town square engagement photos at carlyle house engagement photos in old town pier engagement photos on prince street in alexandria engagement photos at misha's coffee in old town Congratulations, you guys!

Julia & Alex | Old Town Alexandria engagement

Julia and Alex are my buddies who are going to tie that knot in October this year. Way back on when, they helped me out by modeling for me and now they're full-on engaged! We hit up Old Town, their old stomping grounds, on what was a pretty miserable, drizzly day. No worries. Alex is goofy enough to make Julia laugh and Old Town has plenty of cute little spots to bring tons of cheer to their engagement photos. funky old town alexandria engagement photos engagement session in old town alexandria engagement photos with red brick in old town alexandria The yellow wall.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade | Alexandria event photographer

I really like parades.  It's like a huge party in the middle of the street that all your neighbors are invited to.  George was suspiciously quick in agreeing to come with me to the Old Town Alexandria St. Patrick's Day parade.  Turns out he just wanted to sit in a coffee shop and do homework (boring!).  But I had fun on the street. bagpipers piping drummer drumming in old town, alexandria people marching in old town alexandria little misses at the old town alexandria st. patrick's day parade Naturally, there were doggies. doggies at the parade in alexandria, va The one on the right was totally insane.  He's gear up and run full-speed (not much for this guy) and then get jerked back on the leash.  He'd recover and by then his walker had met up with him and he's run top-speed again. puppies at the st. patrick's day parade in alexandria, va crazy dog at the parade in alexandria, va people in the parade little girl in a truck in black and white bagpipers at the st. patrick's day parade   revolutionary war dress-up guys little boy at the parade in old town alexandria The cops ended the show, as always, but these guys had a whole motorcycle routine choreographed.  As you can see, the adults were quite impressed while the children seemed to be scared out of their wits. little boy with police cars in old town alexandria
