Boston Engagement Photography

This lucky young lady's fiance was thoughtful enough to book me for the day he was planning to propose to her.  He proposed over brunch then surprised her again when they met me in the public garden.  I photographed her sister two years ago immediately following her engagement too.  I just love this family!



I don't normally partially color a photo but I loved this image so much.  The original image is much too busy with all of the colors the other people were wearing. (on a beautiful weekend day this bridge is never empty!) I think it works :-)


They asked if I was available to photograph their engagement party and I was so sad to tell them that I was already booked for a wedding!

Joy and Mike's rehearsal dinner | Boston event photography

Joy and Mike's wedding weekend finally arrived.  I was so happy when they asked me to photograph the rehearsal dinner which was at the University of Massachusetts Club in Boston.  High above downtown the views were breath taking.


Gotta love family!


Wait until you see where they had a pre-wedding party!

Sarah and Shaun | Boston | New England Aquarium Wedding

After their engagement shoot I just couldn't wait for this wedding! I knew it was going to be so much fun and so beautiful.

When Sarah and Shaun asked me to photograph their wedding over a year ago, I was really flattered. They had enough confidence in my work to choose me even though I had not even done a wedding yet. That means so much to me! Luckily for them I did three weddings before their September 18th date rolled around so I ended up with at least a little experience before then.

It was an overcast afternoon in Boston at the Aquarium with a little chill in the air but not too bad.

I randomly ran into the boys in the hotel bar before the ceremony having a drink and checking in on the ladies who were running late!

On the way out of the hotel there was a little run in with a drunk bum sort of guy who didn't want to leave Sarah alone. He stuck right with her and was chewing her ear off. She handled it awesomely but hotel security had to step in.

We spent some time before the ceremony taking group pictures. Everyone was very cooperative and I was appreciative for that!

Oh, and the colors Sarah chose were outstanding! I was loving how they were so bold and blended together perfectly.

On the way to the Aquarium for the ceremony we ran into a dog being walked. Sarah wanted her picture with him. Anyone who loves animals that much is OK in my book.

Right before the ceremony we took some more group shots with their families. Not a bad location, eh?

Then it was finally time for them to get married! The ceremony was on the same dock next to where the pictures above were taken. Such a beautiful location!

Shaun's best man and brother Tim is a total comedian. I was shocked that he hadn't pulled anything up until that point but he was just waiting until he had a full audience to perform. When he was asked for the rings he patted his jacket, checked his pockets with a worried look then turned to the next groomsman and said "Oh, I gave them to you to hold". They ended up repeating that all the way down the line. I actually forget who ended up having the rings but it was so funny.

After the ceremony this beautiful set up was waiting in a huge tent for all of the guests.

First dance...

Not a bad view.

One of my favorite things to photograph at a wedding are the speeches. The natural expressions and reactions you get to capture are priceless. Here is Tim being funny again.

Love this one!

I had such a great time at this wedding and am so thankful that they gave me the opportunity to be their photographer.

Meghan and John tie the knot | Boston wedding photographer

This past Saturday Meghan and John got married at the Intercontinental in Boston. I loved everything about this wedding. It was classy, small, elegant, relaxed and fun all at the same time.

I arrived at 9 am to meet Meghan in her room where she was getting ready with her maid of honor and 4 year old daughter.

Her shoes were to die for!!

Meghan looked so beautiful!

One of my favorite photos ever! Happiness drinking a $12 nip out of the mini bar in order to calm pre ceremony nerves.

The ceremony was in the foyer at 10 am. This place is just so beautiful and contemporary. The view was pretty amazing too.

The ceremony went perfectly and then it was time for mimosas!

We headed outside in the miserable humid heat for some formal shots but we didn't stay too long. I'm glad we went though. It was really pretty out there on the waterfront.

Back inside it was time for delicious food. Everything was outstanding. I want to have breakfast there everyday.

The girls couldn't have been happier to twirl for me :-)

I stole John and Meghan away near the end so that I could get some photos of them in the beautiful foyer. The colors and artwork were just so beautiful.

I couldn't decide which ring photo I liked the best so you get to see all of them.

What a beautiful, relaxing wedding. Thank you so much for hiring me Meghan and John! I hope you love your images as much as I do!

Here is a slideshow of the rest of the photos.
