Old Town Alexandria is one of those places that I never get tired of exploring. For Paul and Shannon's engagement session, that's exactly what we did.

We had a few places in mind that we wanted to hit as we walked the streets of Alexandria, such as the waterfront, their favorite coffee shop Killer ESP, and of course the cobblestone paved King Street, but largely we just walked around, stopping to capture images where we felt inspired.

This lead to some neat shots, my favorite of which came when we discovered the bright yellow wall of a bike shop. I can't wait to photograph Paul and Shannon's wedding later this year, especially after seeing how great they were in front of the camera! I had no trouble getting them to laugh, smile, and enjoy this "date" together.
