I had the pleasure of being a part of this Southern Gothic Editorial shoot that was deeply inspired by the evocative Southern Gothic genre. Kristin, a makeup artist, and her husband, Jason had a small wedding and did not have engagement portraits done. Wanting to make her dream session become a reality, she pulled together a team to help her celebrate her 10 year anniversary in style.  River Farm in Alexandria, VA  was the backdrop for a romantic and moody summer session that melded perfectly with the couple’s gothic-glam style.
