Boston Wedding Photographer
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it one hundred times, I adore engagement sessions in couples homes. Two weeks ago I met up with Diana and Chris in the South End for a little pre-wedding portrait session. We hung out inside, on their roof deck, strolled around the neighborhood, and finally finished up by preparing a favorite dish they picked up in Italy over their engagement last fall.
Also, how adorable is Diana’s mint colored dress with orange accents!? Love.
I’m back from a brief hiatus, i.e. vacation, of which I may share a few images in the coming months. As snow piles up in New England (although I do love winter) palm trees will start to look pretty good come February.
Now, back to the task at hand. I spent a lovely evening with Karina and Jeff over the weekend documenting their engagement. When I first sit down with a couple I try and learn as much about them as possible, for the most part I already know what the wedding is going to look like, so my ultimate goal is to really understand who my clients are. With Karina and Jeff I knew almost immediately they didn’t want the same ol’ thing when it came to their images, so we decided to document an evening in their lives. We started off with a cocktail, (well, they did) explored their neighborhood, and finally finished up with a favorite dish (also the proposal dish) to close out the evening.
Four days before Hurricane Sandy hit the east coast I traveled down to NYC for Kate and Phil’s engagement session, this couldn’t have been timed more appropriately. We started off in their fabulous apartment, something I really love documenting with couples, and then took a stroll through Riverside Park in their neighborhood. If more of New York City looked like their neighborhood I could definitely live there!
Finally we caught a cab over to Central Park and paid homage to Phil’s engagement, with a kite, although not the proposal kite.
Thanks for a lovely afternoon guys, I hope these images remind you of drier times in NYC!
I met Jamie and Ben last month as we began discussions for their wedding next fall and we immediately started to game plan when we could sneak in their engagement session before winter comes tearing in. So a couple of weeks ago we met up at the deCordova Sculpture Park in Lincoln to celebrate their engagement with some art and some champagne, because why not bring champagne!?
Ashley and Hugh live in DC but have a love for Marblehead MA (also where they will be getting married in September) so we met up there for a lovely evening of walking on the beach, watching the sunset, oh and chasing their 4 dogs around! Only two make an appearance here, but Frank the adorable Labradoodle will pop up in the wedding post I’m sure. See you in September!
