hey friends, i'm katelyn

I feel like it would be accurate to name this the “blossom” shoot! There were so many opportunities to shoot underneath blooming trees and shrubbery during Greg and Keri’s engagement session! Every year I hope for a chance to shoot in the blossoms and I thought that my opportunity had passed. The peak of the cherry blossoms was over a week ago and so I assumed that all of the blooms were gone. I was very wrong! Old Town Alexandria was still full of flowers and it made for a perfect backdrop for Greg and Keri!

I honestly don’t know which part of their session that I enjoyed more… shooting in the most gorgeous light with magical petals falling from the branches or just walking and talking with this sweet couple and hearing their story! The more we learned about these two, the more we loved them! They volunteer with their youth group at church, they have awesome families, and last but not least… they have such a CLASSY style! :) What more could you want in a couple?! To top it all off, they are incredibly photogenic!

We walked around the streets of Old Town and found so many little nooks to shoot in! Michael had to reel me in because I could have kept Greg and Keri just on one street for two hours! I’m just in love with this session because of the color, the unique backdrops and of course, the blossoms!! Enjoy scrolling through some of my favorites and get excited for this wedding because Keri is going to be such a stunning bride! I can’t wait!
