Brielle & David | Great Falls Park Engagement session McLean Virginia Engagement Photographer

I LOVE when my clients take me to new places that I have never seen before for engagement sessions or weddings.  I truly become inspired in these places and I love exploring them.  Brielle & David live near Washington D.C. and suggested Great Falls Park for their engagement session!  This place is AMAZING!!  Now the day was literally the coldest of the year, (I think it was 28* when we were shooting,) but that didn’t seem to be a problem for them!

Brielle & David met at a bar in D.C. that neither of them typically go to.  They hit it off immediately and found they had a lot in common.  They both love to hike, work out and watch sports.  They recently got a puppy, named Bear from an Amish Family (that knows how to text) in Pennsylvania!  Bear is a husky, pomeranian, lab mix…and is an AWESOME pup!  He listens well and is super easy going!  Thanks for the FUN day, for the taco recommendation and for choosing me to document your wedding day!  I am so excited to watch you two get married!!
