Charity + Chris | Central Virginia Marriott Ranch Wedding

Monday, August 22nd, 2011

Sometimes I wonder if God tickles us.

Before you click away, just hear me out. Have you ever been so joy filled that you laugh? Out loud? You’re heart starts to pound, you smile, you’re wiggly, and you know that there is a higher power at work. Not because you can prove it, but because you know it and you feel it. I fell in love with Charity and her wedding. And was absolutely tickled. I don’t have much else to say about these two. They reek of mature spirituality, passion for Jesus, and love for each other and others. I don’t know them very well, but these are truths displayed and spoken about at their wedding. It’s serious storybook stuff, y’all. Anyway, LOVE to you, Charity and Chris. So excited for you!

I am so proud and humbled to announce that Jacqueline’s beautiful Maryland wedding has caught more attention. Hitched, a couture wedding boutique in Georgetown is featuring her wedding and her photography today and tomorrow! They had such kind things to say about Alisandra Photography, and I am so thankful! I have not met any of the Hitched family personally, however I still would recommend any brides in DC Metro area go pay them a visit!

This is just a little wrap up post.  I can’t wait to share with you what is ahead in posts to come.  I just got back from a completely relaxing–what my husband and I are calling–*Christmas-New-Moon.*  We didn’t take a honeymoon right after our wedding in October, so we took the Holiday to do so.  Anyway,  here are more of my 2010 brides…

Once and Future Brides know that wedding blogs are total inspiration.  Style Me Pretty has had me from Hello.  I discovered this blog from another, lesser known blog called “Under a Paper Moon.”  I started following the blogs that this writer followed, and SPM was a match made in heaven!  I used it to get some style inspiration for MY wedding and am continually inspired by the level of work that they feature.

Alisandra Photography has been in business, officially, since July 2010.  I’ve been shooting since I was in college, but officially a real business since July this year.  I am totally humbled, yet proud, and TOTALLY stoked to be featured on Style Me Pretty.  I was shocked when they informed me that I would, at some point, be featured when I submitted this wedding.  But seeing it threw me through a loop.  I was so excited.  I called my bride. Emailed my family. G-chatted my friends.  Still giddy, now I’m blogging to the world.

I know this isn’t [the end] and thousands of photographers are featured on blogs all the time, but I think the FIRST time calls for utter excitement.

Thank you, Jacqueline!  You planned a beautiful wedding; [such a great mix of preppy meets nautical meets chic].

Thank you, Rebekah!  You were a wonderful second shooter, and I am so thankful you were there that day!

Thank you, Style Me Pretty!  For inspiring photographers to desire beauty and detail in whatever they are shooting.

Thanks to Rebekah, we have WONDERFUL details!

2010 | Best Of part 1

Can you believe that this year is almost over?  The year in review puts life in perspective.  How quickly we forget.  How quickly things change! I’ve had a wonderful year with ups and downs, but so many people have had a really tough one.  Job losses, natural disasters, death… but I’m convinced we can’t focus on those things… remember and respect? Yes.  But I would rather focus on that which is so wonderful.  The blessings we are given are what keeps us going.  Marriage is one of life’s biggest changes AND blessings.  This year, I was able to photograph some of the most beautiful weddings [as well as experience my own]!  Here is Part 1 of 2 of the wonderful celebrations…
