Ashley and Dustin’s French inspired engagement session has me transported to Europe, sipping champagne in a cute French cafe! We met this sweet couple a few months ago, and were so excited when they filled us in on their dreams for their engagement session. As Dustin proposed to Ashley on their trip through Nice and the French Riviera last spring, and it’s no surprise that they plan to have their wedding there next year! To kick off their French-filled wedding festivities, Ashley planned a classic and chic engagement session at the renowned L’Auberge Chez Francois restaurant in Great Falls, Virginia. Not only were the red tulips and gorgeous garden the perfect setting for their session, but Ashley’s parents had their first date here! It was such a dreamy session from beginning to end, and we couldn’t be more excited for these two and the happy years ahead of them!
