Florence, Italy Engagement Session – Casey and Alex

Engagement, Love, Stories Documented  //  

I will never forget the day Casey sent us an email to say she and Alex were planning a wedding in Italy! We were sitting at our kitchen table. I was busy tackling our email box and Casey’s email came in. Instead of planning a DC wedding like they had originally planned, they decided to follow their hearts and plan their dream wedding in Italy instead. My productivity officially ended at that moment! ;) Casey and I exchanged emails the rest of the day! and they were so full of !!!!!!! and ;) :) :) ;) ;) that I was just hoping she didn’t think I was crazy! ;)

Photographing a wedding in Italy has been a dream of ours for so so so long! We blogged about that dream way back in 2010! At the time that dream came into our hearts, we had absolutely no idea just how AMAZING it would be! Casey and Alex made our dreams even more magical than we ever could have imagined!

Looking back on Casey and Alex’s intimate wedding week in Italy, we honestly could not imagine it in any other way! We will be sharing their wedding photos super soon! (Honestly, we CANNOT WAIT!!! ;) They are some of our favorite photos we have ever captured!!!)

But first, their INCREDIBLE engagement session! We snuck away with Casey and Alex for a morning engagement session in Florence, Italy. With so many of their closest family and friends in town, Casey and Alex had been running around non-stop for a few days (ie. weeks ;) ) making sure everyone had the time of their lives! (Let’s be honest, they already had given everyone an excuse to travel to Italy and celebrate with them… they didn’t have to do anything else! ;) But, the sweet friends that they are and their southern hospitality roots, they were running around making sure everyone was taken care of!) It was such a treat to steal them away for a bit and give them some time to just be! To do what they love… explore a beautiful city, grab a sweet treat from their favorite Florence bakery, and soak each other in! ;)

Casey and Alex, you two make our hearts sing!!!!! Thank you for being fabulously YOU and making our dreams come true by giving us the opportunity to capture your love in ITALY! ;)
