Alix & Nathan | Engagement session at the Visionary Arts Center in Baltimore

I’m excited … OK, really excited! Alix has been a bridesmaid in many of her friend’s weddings, and I have been lucky enough to be the photographer at three of them, so when Heather emailed me in the fall to say that Alix got engaged I had all digits crossed that she and Nathan would ask me to come back to Maryland to photograph their wedding, or that they would be flying into San Diego to exchange their vows! (Hey a guy can dream can’t he!?)  It took a couple weeks, but I got the email from Alix with the subject line “He popped the question!”.

Every wedding I have photographed that Alix has been a part of has been a blast, and by this point, I feel like I’m going to a family reunion when I see all the familiar faces.  There was no way I was letting Alix get married without photographing her wedding, and luckily she felt the same way! Although Nate had escorted Alix to these weddings, I had never officially met him, so when I flew into Baltimore in April, we set up an engagement shoot which gave us both the opportunity to get to meet each other, as well as have a great time shooting in downtown Baltimore.  I had an amazing time spending the afternoon with these two, and I absolutely can’t wait to photograph their wedding in September.  The only thing that makes me sad is I believe Alix is the last of this group of amazing girls to get married.  I believe I’m going to have to convince everyone to do annual girl’s weekends in San Diego so they can all get together, and I can shoot their portraits once a year!

Alix, I am so happy for you and Nate, I’m so excited to see you both in September! Congratulations!!!!
