Chelsea and Yoon

One of my favorite photographers anywhere is Yoon. And even though he and Chelsea are dear friends of mine, I was a little nervous about taking their engagement pictures. We started at their apartment, ran some practice drills and wandered around Davis Square before we met up with Brooke for dinner. And in case you […]

Mara and Adam

Mara and Adam moved into a new condo this year. But they didn’t need a moving truck because the trip from the old place to the new place was so close. Just across the street, in fact. They obviously love the neighborhood so we simply walked around their little patch of Cambridge getting pictures of […]

Michelle and JR

Michelle and JR (and Whiskey!) met me in my own neck of the woods for their engagement session. Their first date was at Mexico Lindo in Melrose so we did a quick photo in front of the mural before heading up to Gloucester where their wedding will be next year. Michelle found the Gloucester Maritime […]

Tim and Greg

I met up with Tim and Greg at their home in Somerville where we gave Scooter some time in the spotlight. After dropping Scooter off (so he couldn’t hijack the entire session), we wandered through Harvard Square and along Charles River as the sun went down. I had a great time getting to know Tim […]

It was great to get to know them as we wandered around Concord and their new neighborhood in Boston. Their wedding is next weekend at the Boston Public Library, so I won’t have to wait […]

We visited some of their old haunts near Broadway and then the Upper West Side. Visiting a couple’s points of origin […]

Andrea and AJ

Andrea and AJ live in New York, so traveling to explore the places important to them only made sense. Four years have passed since I was last in New York City, and I had so much fun wandering around different neighborhoods with Andrea and AJ. They were great tour guides and great company. We started […]

Ashley and Alden

We started Ashley and Alden’s engagement session down the road from where Ashley grew up and along the water where Alden proposed. Afterwards we headed to the family farm where their wedding reception will be next summer. The location sounded beautiful as Ashley and Alden described it to me, but seeing it in person got […]

Erin and Ben

Erin and Ben recently moved from the North End, so we used their an engagement session to revisit some of their old haunts. It was a great way to get to know them both, and now I’m looking forward to their wedding next year even more. Thanks so much for wandering around with me, Erin […]
