Milltown Creek Tree Farm is not just great for Christmas trees; it was also the wonderful setting of one of my very first snowy engagement photo sessions!
Katelyn and Pete met my husband Mike and I out at the tree farm this past week, just after the DC area got hit with its first snow storm of the winter! Katelyn and I had made an "on call" engagement session arrangement, ever hopeful that we might get snow for their shoot. When the snow came, it conveniently coincided with the day Mike and I had planned on cutting down our own tree, so lo and behold! Tree cutting and engagement photo session both happened the same day at this super fun location!

Katelyn and Pete will be married next year in upstate New York, but are currently living in the DC area. As a result, I had the great pleasure of doing some pre-wedding portraits of them here before the big day next year. They brought along their adorable dog Riley, who was pretty ecstatic about the newly fallen snow. I think I would be too if I were covered with a thick fur coat! After a couple shots with the pup, away we went, traipsing through the snow, frolicking among the trees, and making general merriment on this gorgeous winter day!
