My last session of the year and of the decade ended with this winter Old Town Alexandria Engagement Session with the most beautiful bride to be Marie-Elise and her fiancé Tom. The day was an especially chilly December day but you’d never know by their photos and Marie-Elise’s two absolutely stunning flowy dresses from LuLu’s.
Their wedding was going to be my first of 2020 since COVID-19 pushed everything back but with the uncertainty of everything, they decided to push their wedding back to 2021. Looking forward to seeing this gorgeous couple again for their summer wedding at Shadow Creek.
Here are just a few of my favorites from their Winter Old Town Alexandria Engagement Session.
