Hyatt Reston wedding: Lauren and Allen

Lauren and Allen are a bride and groom I won't soon forget. Simply put they were hilarious, making me laugh behind the camera throughout the day. Being around them and their family made the day so fun and the day had this overall air of care free. I love this because it's so important to not get carried away with all the little details that could add stress to your day. Have fun, laugh and laugh some more, and most of all be in the moment.Reston VA weddingReston VA wedding Reston VA weddingLauren sneaking around the corner to see Allen for the first time.
