Northern Virginia Family Photography | Green Spring Gardens

I want to start off this blog post showing gratitude for all of you that trust me to photograph your family! It’s such a honor to give families the gift of family photography because photos really do matter. A LOT!

This was my first time photographing this beautiful family of three. We had the session at Green Spring Gardens in Alexandria, Virginia.

Neither the family nor I had actually been to Green Spring Gardens before this session! The family was looking for something within the Alexandria area and this location came to mind!

They do require a permit but it is very reasonable and means I can do even more sessions at Green Spring Gardens! Most of my sessions are within the Maryland and DC areas and I am always up for the adventure working with families in Northern Virginia.

I am so happy with how the gallery came out for this lifestyle family session. One thing you’ll notice about my lifestyle family photography is that I move around a lot to get interesting and unique perspectives when photographing families. The session usually lasts around 45 minutes which often is enough time to get a full gallery of lifestyle family photos. I’ll prompt and guide some interaction to get genuine expressions from family members.

Outdoor Family Photos in Old Town Alexandria | Lifestyle Family Photographer

On the blog today I am talking all about this family of three photo session I had in Old Town Alexandria!

We played, snuggled, walked around, and explored a few different areas in Old Town Alexandria. Old Town is full of beautiful row houses, cobblestone roads, alleyways, spring flowers, and beautiful murals!

This was a beautiful morning and I’m so happy to have met this family. They picked the perfect spot!

What do you think about Old Town? It’s super cute right???

One of the best things about doing a session here is that we have so many options without needing to walk very far. Within just a couple of blocks we have options for vibrant color, soft neutral backdrops, some Old Town historic architecture, and even the Potomac waterfront!

Old Town Alexandria is beautiful year round. I love the blooms in the spring and the summer, and I love looking at the doorsteps and fall decor in the fall.

I think this makes such a great area for families in the Northern Virginia area who want an outdoor session that feels relaxed and playful, while also having a mix of color, character, and movement.

If you’re looking for an outdoor family photographer in Alexandria, I’d love to help you plan a session here!

I offer on-location family sessions throughout the Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Montgomery County area and would love to work with you!
