At 18 she convinced him she was ready …

Alexandria & Zach Engaged: Virginia Engagement Photographer, Engagement Photos

"You see I kind of have this problem," she said with a little hesitation.  I was thinking to myself, what problem could she possibly have?  I was slightly nervous that she might have an extra hand or something.  "You see I kind of have a smiling problem.  I can't stop smiling."  Relief washed over me as I explained that it was the best problem she could have in my mind.  She could not stop smiling throughout the session.  I loved seeing how happy in love these two are. Zach and Alexandria are …
