Let me tell y’all about Carolina & Brandon…. When we got out of our cars in Old Town Alexandria, I felt like I was meeting up with two old friends! These two are the warmest, most genuine people and just make you feel GOOD when you are in their presence! Carolina greeted me with gluten free/dairy free blueberry muffins (that were absolutely amazing) and the sweetest little succulent that I’ve ever seen… what?! How did I get so lucky?? They’re the kind of people that think of others first and that know how to hold each other just right. We spent their session plotting ways to steal every dog that passed by while touring Old Town on foot, which let me know that they’re my kind of people.

Now… I usually tear up during most wedding days, but I found myself misty-eyed behind the camera a little more than usual during this one!
