As a wedding and lifestyle photographer who shoots a ton of weddings in Boston I always like the change of pace when shooting engagement sessions in Boston proper. I love the uniqueness of the historic Boston morphing into what has become a beautiful modern city where people have not forgotten their heritage. Jamie and Greg and I shot in some great locations that ranged from a cobble stone street that was probably a cow path to a newly renovated T station. Where else in this country can you shoot a profession of 350 years in one mile?

These two were troopers and I just want to thank them for their patience as we probably walked 5 miles from the State House,  Charles Street, Boston Public Gardens and ending up at the Arlington T stop.

Leah and Steven contacted me a couple of months ago about photographing their wedding at Migis Lodge up in Maine. I’m always excited to go home to photograph a wedding and when leah sent me a e-mail saying that my blog post on Camp in Maine really touched her and it was how she felt about her cabin up there and all the connections to family that made my week.

When they told me about their plans for their engagement session they added my second favorite “M” word behind Maine which is MOVIES my mind started racing in 100 directions of how to shoot them in the theatre.  They had the Somerville Theatre for a couple of hours one afternoon and between the theatre and the funky Museum of Bad Art in the basement we had a blast! Mt favorites of the day are them hanging out in the seats and shot as if they were just hanging out and munching on popcorn while watching a great new fall movie.

Leah and Steven really know how to have fun and relax and it was two hours of cracking up and before I knew it we had run out of time! Have fun and enjoy this time leading up to next summer!

What a great night we picked for Ashlie and Ryan’s engagement session. It was late September and we had some early fall weather which just a little chilly, but with great early evening light. I had never been to Salem Willows and I’m glad that I had the opportunity to shoot there as it’s such a hidden gen. If you’re in Salem you should make it a point to visit during the summer months. It was pretty much closed down for the winter, but it really gave us just tons of unique and fun places to shoot where we wound up being the only people around.

This Providence engagement session became a reality when I met Lenny and Diane when they came to Providence from Hartford for a consult. They are an awesome couple and we hit it off as soon as we met. They were a little nervous about the engagement shoot, but within 10 minutes of arriving on Benefit Street they were relaxed and having fun. I love the areas around Brown and Benefit Street and we found some great places to photograph. I really love finding little out of the way places that people miss when I’m in an area like this. We found some brick walls, stoops, a small hedge garden, a cute little alley way between two colonial era homes. This place was a gold mine in finding unique areas with good light.

We ended the day with a stop by Capron Park in Attleboro on the way back to my studio. It’s the first time I’ve photographed a couple there, but it won’t be the last. The area around the gardens was absolutely gorgeous and they have some great places to shoot around some large Oak trees. If you have kids you’ll love the Capron Park Zoo. It’s a small community zoo with about 100 or so different animals and will take maybe an hour to see. I was really impressed with the park and the shooting opportunities as a photographer.

It was a great Monday with the two of you in Providence and I am already looking forward to next April. Have fun over the next fw months leading up to the wedding!

Lea and Mark are a great couple and really easy going which made the engagement session fly by as we were having so much fun. We started the session off down on the Scituate waterfront near the lighthouse and we finished our day by the cottage of mark’s grand dad. There wedding is coming right up on September 3rd and I know it’s going to b a great day because these two have the right frame of mind and will have fun whether it’s 50 and raining or 100 degrees and sticky. Thanks again Lea and Mark for taking time to invite me in to photograph you during a hectic time.

Kate and Brian had a gorgeous day for their engagement Session at Borderland State Park and the Wrentham State Forest at the end of October. We made it just in time to catch the foliage before all the laves blew off during the next week. You can see their love and even though they were a little nervous about having their pictures taken (completely normal) they really trusted me and were game to try about anything as we traipsed along the trails. Thanks guys! You made it a fun day!

Borderland State Park and the Wrentham State Forest was the setting for this engagements portraits above. Here’s a quick sneak peek from this past weekend with Kate and Brian down here on the South Shore. The locations were beautiful and even though it was a cold fall morning where you could see your breath in the air we couldn’t have asked for a better time. The couple were real troopers and got into the shoot.

If you’re down this way check out the park. It’s a hidden jewel amongst Massachusetts State Parks.

I had the privilege of shooting the e-session of Andrea and Trevor on Columbus Day weekend. Trevor flew into town for the long weekend from Chicago to visit Andrea at BC as she’s here for the next year in a post-grad program. They wanted something with the feeling of Boston as they are getting married next summer in Mankato, Minnesota and it was important for them to document their time in the city. We started at the ICA and then wandered through the Boston Public Gardens before ending on Marlborough Street in the Back Bay. We could not have asked for a better day and things were moving along so fast that we lost track of time and what turned into a 2.5 hour session wound up being 4 hours! When you lose track of time you know you’re having a good time.

Jess and Brian are one of the most easy going couples I’ve had the pleasure to photograph. They are living near downtown Dedham right now and when I asked them where they wanted to do their engagement session they wanted to simply shoot around their home. I love these types of sessions and it really shows the couple in a relaxed natural way.

Newport RI engagement photography session of Beth and Chris - Beth and Chis are a local couple and during the process of getting to know one another we really hit it off. They have many of the same tastes and are just fun vibrant people to be around. They really love one another and it shows within one minute of spending time with them. The engagement session was shot on Saturday the 18th in December in Newport, RI and we beat out the big Nor’easter by a couple of hours. Newport is a special place for both as Chris loves sailing and Beth is a graduate of Salve Regina. Even though it was cold and windy they smiled through jittering and had a lot of fun while playing around in front of the camera that afternoon.
