Welcome to my blog, where I share highlights of everything from my client's wedding days and portrait sessions, to recent features and our adventures around the world. 

Hi, I'm Alicia.

Old Town Alexandria, VA Engagement

Nov 18, 2014

Stephanie & Pat are one of my favorite love stories — the kind where, in spite of all the obstacles in front of them, they still end up together. While attending Northeastern University in Boston, these two ran into each other for the first time at a house party their junior year. It wasn’t love at first sight, in fact, they merely went their separate ways at the end of the night. Fast forward a few months later — Stephanie and Pat ran into each other again during a night out and it was only days until he asked her out officially.

And then the fun part begins, right? The part where you spend every waking moment getting to know one another; going out to breakfast, lunch, and dinner, to the mall, to the movies — absolutely anywhere just to be together. Well as chance would have it, this wasn’t the case for Stephanie and Pat. Pat had already signed up to study abroad across Europe that summer and was leaving just shortly after they began dating. Not too bad, Summer goes by quick! But the real kicker is that Stephanie had also signed up to study abroad in Greece — but hers didn’t begin until the Fall semester, literally days after Pat was returning home!

Despite the odds of making it through not one, but two long distance relationships within the first few months of dating, these two clearly won out. Last July, on a family vacation to Bethany Beach, Pat proposed! They will be getting married at WeatherLea Farm next October on a day sure to be filled with laughter, family, wine, and… llamas. Yes, they have actual farm animals on the property that will come out during the cocktail hour! This is a totally unique venue that has a little bit of everything and I am beyond excited to photograph with these two there!
