Williamsburg Couple Photography Session | Elle + Don | Michael and Carina Photography

Okay, so technically Don and Elle have already been married for a while now, so this isn’t an actual engagement session.

It is, however, their first professional photography session together… so we gave them the whole e-session treatment!

And even though they’ve been married for several years, they acted as if they’d just gotten engaged.

Don is a retired member of the military who now likes to devote his time to Elle and his car (which Elle teases is his “other wife”).

He met Elle in the Philippines thru a mutual friend. They’ll be married 12 years this December.

She works at the College of William and Mary, loves handbags, pretty scarfs, and being with Don – her best friend.

For their session we also brought along some black and white film, tmax400, featured here and developed by Richard Photo Lab.

Elle and Don, thanks so much for inviting us to capture these gorgeous shots of you!

You were both naturals, so while this was the first shoot, we hope it isn’t the last!

Best, Michael & Carina
