Victoria and Christian’s favorite time of year is Christmas in New York City. They love the holiday lights and the time with family and wanted to recreate that feeling for their engagement session in Boston. So we began photographing at the Boston Public Library for a few quick shots with such a stunning backdrop. Afterward, we then walked to the Fairmont Copley next door to take advantage of their gorgeous Christmas decor. The gold and mirror detailing was exactly the vibe they loved for their wedding that is to take place at the Graduate in Providence.
Last fall, we had the pleasure of photographing Marina and Steve's engagement session at Lars Anderson Park. The park was absolutely stunning at that time of year, with the fall colors in full bloom. The leaves on the trees were a gorgeous array of red, orange, and yellow, making for a beautiful and vibrant backdrop for the couple's photos.
It was a beautiful summer day in Boston when Madison and Omar arrived at the Public Gardens for their engagement session. The couple was so excited to have their photos taken at such historic and picturesque locations around the Public Gardens, Acorn street on Beacon Hill and the Charles River Esplanade.
Taylor and James are so excited for their wedding and couldn’t wait for their Boston engagement session! Even though they are getting married in Florida, they wanted their engagement session to represent the life they live in the Northeast. We began the session in the Boston Public Gardens. The leaves were a beautiful bright green and the gorgeous weeping willows were just touching swan pond.
Jillian and Emmett are truly meant to be. The connection between each other was so lovely that they made my job a breeze! We began walking around the gardens of Elm Bank on a warm afternoon. Jillian and Emmett wore blues to stand out against the lush greens. From there we took the short drive to Wellesley College, where Emmett both attended and now currently works.
Eddine and Christian picked World’s End as the spot of their engagement session for it’s beautiful views. I warned them ahead of time that it’s lot of walking to fully capture the natural beauty and they were all in. They even showed up in formal wear to go the extra mile! ! They had two incredible outfits and looked effortlessly stunning in every photo. They were helped by the Maid of Honor, Jen, who graciously carried all the clothes around. She definitely wins the MOH of the year award!
Jessica and Truman are such a fun couple and were so excited to have their engagement session at Elm Bank in Wellesley. Jessica is a garment designer so she showed up in a brilliantly colored red dress with matching Louboutin shoes. The pop of red looked amazing among the lush green gardens.
This gorgeous couple is getting married at Beauport next year in Gloucester. They chose to have their engagement session in the Boston Public gardens, Beacon Hill and the Esplanade. Quick to smile and so clearly in love, they made my job photographing easy! Such a perfect fall day for the perfect couple.
Lisa and Alex were looking glamorous for their October engagement session in Back Bay. We began at the Boston Public Gardens right as the leaves were turning. It was a crisp fall day and Lisa braved the chilly weather in a beautiful dusty pink dress. We then took the short walk to Beacon Hill for that classic Boston look. Finally we made the trek to the esplanade right as the sun was setting. The clouds were hiding the golden glow but the sky was dramatic nonetheless. We can’t wait for their big Armenian-Montenegrin wedding coming up next year at the Danversport Yacht Club!
Yasmine and Osama have a complicated story about their engagement session. They originally scheduled it in Calgary, but forest fires caused it not to happen at all. Not to be deterred, they decided that if the mountains wouldn’t work out then they could capture a beautiful city-scape of Boston in the fall. Little did they know that unpredictable New England weather would almost ruin their plans!
Haley and Joe are two of the sweetest people I've met. It was clear from the first few minutes how much they are devoted to each other. We met at World's End on a warm summer's evening as the sun was slowly making it's way down to a golden glow. I warned Haley to wear comfortable shoes since we ended up walking miles along the rolling hills, exploring all that World's End has to offer. The best part was when we got to the quiet forested area and then spotted 3 deer - two does and a fawn. We walked a bit further then saw many more of all ages in the long grass, seemingly unfazed by our presence. We ended up seeing 11 total that evening, which was such a magical experience. What good luck as they embark on their journey as soon-to-be husband and wife!
I met Jen and Grant on a summery day at the Boston Public Gardens with their adorable dog, Frankie. The rambunctious 1 year old pup stayed still long enough for some quick photos before being brought home by Jen's mom. We then walked around the gardens taking in the sights and grabbing some beautiful shots by the pond. This stylish couple made my job easy and I loved the coordination with the pop of red in Jen's shoes and earrings and Grant's pocket square!
I met Jessica and Sal on a warm sunny afternoon at the Acton Arboretum. I had never been there before and was so surprised to find such a hidden paradise! Sal is originally from Acton so it was a spot he knew well. We took their sprightly dog, Mia, on a walk around the park. She was interested in everything besides the camera but that didn't matter as she had a great time being outdoors exploring. We continued around the winding paths, discovering the spring flowers and woods while the sun was setting perfectly, casting a golden glow. I can't wait to be a part of their wedding this fall at the Beauport in Gloucester!
I met Margaret and Colin on a picture perfect day in the Boston Common gardens. The sun was shining, the flowers were in bloom and we had the perfect afternoon to explore! We walked around the swan pond and then made our way over to the iconic Acorn street. After a few photos on the cobblestones, we headed over to the esplanade to catch the last part of the beautiful sunset over the water.
Terra and Jamey are too adorable for words! Always smiling and laughing, it's clear how much they love each other. Terra works at the New England Aquarium training seals and sea lions - pretty much every animal lover's dream job. We had such a great time wandering around Boston during a chilly but sunny February day. The snow was gone but at least we got a gorgeous sunset! They're getting married this October at the State Room in Boston and I for one can't wait to be there for their big day.
Emily and Mark took their adorable dog Kupo on a walk around Boston Common on a beautiful spring day. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom and the sun finally broke through the clouds. We then walked to Beacon hill to wander around the brownstones and acorn street. Finally we took in the sunset at the Esplanade. We can't wait to shoot their beautiful Bermuda wedding next March!
I always tell couples planning for engagement sessions to show their personalities. Aliza and Zach definitely took this to heart and brought as many props as they could find plus 4 outfit changes! We started in Salem common where Zach serenaded Aliza with the guitar she gave to him. The only time she saw him cry was tears of joy when he saw the beautiful guitar! He uses it regularly to make her laugh by singing her silly songs, making up the lyrics as he goes.
