Belle Haven Country Club | Catherine + Mike

A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of photographing Catherine and Mike’s lovely Alexandria wedding, and it was such an amazing day! We really thought that Hurricane Florence might ruin our plans, but the weather was absolutely beautiful. It was such a treat to put the umbrellas away and embrace the sunshine!

Catherine and Mike are such a sweet pair, and I loved capturing the relationship that they share. They each light up in the presence of the other, and it’s so special! They also have an amazing group of family and friends, and their love and excitement for Catherine and Mike was beautiful. It was truly an honor to capture their celebration!

At the conclusion of the reception, Catherine and Mike invited guests out to the back patio at Belle Haven for an incredible after party! They surprised guests with a s’mores, french fries, and cigars. I think everyone was in heaven.
