Bethany + Jon — Falmouth Engagement Session

Falmouth, MA engagement session

We are getting closer and closer to being completely caught up with our better-late-than-never couples! Just FOUR more to go!! Can you believe it?? I’m so excited! And you all say, “Yes CoCo, we are very excited too, now get on with it, who are these adorable people??”

OK OK fine :) Krista met up with Bethany & Jon down in Falmouth, MA, where Bethany grew up and where they would eventually be married. We LOVE shooting in a place that means something to you, it just makes it that more special!

These two romped around The Knob while Krista tagged along and shot some simple, sweet, natural pictures, just how we like it :)

Leli + Tom — Downtown Boston Engagement

Boston Public Garden Engagement Session

Krista met up with Leli & Tom for their Engagement Session down at the Boston Public Gardens, where they got engaged, awwwwwwww. They are the sweetest couple, very caring and loving with each other, and they couldn’t have picked a better day to romp around the city with Krista!

They started out on Commonwealth ave just outside the gardens… Isn’t Leli’s purple dress the cutest?

N + J — Wellesley and Gloucester Engagement Session

OK everyone, back to our regularly scheduled programming of better-late-than-never blog posts. Let’s check in on these two cuties, who actually were married in Singapore but had a special reception at the State Room for their Boston contingent. Sounds fun right?! Let’s start with their Summery engagement session first…

Krista met up with the couple at Wellesley College where they got engaged. Their campus is so beautiful, it was a great place to shoot. They toured around campus a while and then drove out to Gloucester as a surprise for J, who loves lighthouses, he loved it!.

 Look at these two!! So cute!

Christine + Randy — Winchester Backyard Engagement Session

Krista got together with Christine and Randy at Christine’s brother’s beautiful home in Winchester, MA. He has a great backyard were they hung out with their adorable dog, chilled with some sparkling wine and relaxed in their hammock, what more can you ask for!?

Danielle & Jon Engagement Session – Borderland State Park

Since I’ve been so slack on blogging lately, I’m going to try posting a few shoots with fewer words…  Words take me much longer to write ;)   On that note, here are a few favorites from my engagement session with Danielle & Jon down at Borderland State Park!

We actually started at Jon’s family home nearby before going to the park…

Danielle & Jon – thanks again for a fun afternoon, long ago though it may be!  I’m super glad I had the chance to hang out and get to know you both a bit!!

Amy & Lawrence Boston Engagement Session

With Amy in Boston, and Lawrence in San Francisco, and them planning a wedding in just a matter of a couple months – we didn’t get a chance to do an engagement session very far before the wedding!  In fact, we did it just 2 days before!  In the midst of all of the final week of preparation, they took a little time out of their hectic schedule to spend some time letting me photograph them.  It is so helpful on the day of the wedding for us to have all worked together before, that is really is important for us to do an engagement session.  I’m so glad they agreed!

We met up in Boston and spent some time walking from the Public Gardens to the Harbor and back.  It was a surprisingly warm Fall day and we ended up having a great time!

They’re so sweet together!

Amy & Lawrence – thank you again for making time for this!  It was great to spend the time with you and just get to know you both a bit, and I think it made the wedding day way more fun to feel like we’d gotten to be friends beforehand!  :)

Katelyn & Evan’s Engagement Session – New York City

Until I moved here, I never realized just how close Boston is to New York City!  It’s about as close as Indianapolis is to Chicago – and I used to make that trip a dozen times a year.  I don’t seem to get to New York quite as often, but when I do get the chance, it’s always kind of exciting!  I love road trips and visiting new places – so I try to check out a new part of the City each time I go.  So, when Katelyn & Evan suggested we meet up in NYC for their engagement session, I was totally excited!  And I was not disappointed – we had a great time, and I absolutely LOVE how the photos turned out!!

We started out in Central Park

As the sun was setting, we decided to walk towards Lincoln Center and get some images with more of the City feel.  Love this one in front of Brooks Brothers!

New York City Engagement Session

Lincoln Center turned out to be the perfect spot for some night shots!  They even had a little opera going on outside to keep us entertained!

Taking some inspiration from the boys at Avenna Studios – I decided to take a few big steps back…  Love how they turned out!

After Lincoln Center, we walked over to the Apple Store.  Dueling iPhones!

After that we just walked around town for a while

Katelyn & Evan – thank you again for a fun afternoon in the City!   It was so great getting to know you both a bit better, and seeing some new parts of town.  And double thank you for the delicious dinner!!  Next time I’m in NYC, or in Paris, I’ll be sure to go back :)

Rahel & Yitzi’s Engagement Session – Boston, MA

Last year I photographed the wedding of Shoshana & Andy and had such a fun time working with them and their family!  Imagine my excitement when Shoshana’s mom called to tell me that Shoshana’s sister Rahel had just gotten engaged!!  I am thrilled to be able to continue documenting this family, and to celebrate another marriage with them!

A few weeks ago I met up with Rahel and Yitzi to photograph their engagement session.  These two met at MIT, so what better place to begin our shoot than on campus?

Boston Engagement Session

Being photographed can be totally awkward – but if you can just keep each other laughing, it helps a LOT!

After walking around campus a little bit, we decided to head over to the Charles River.  The sunlight was just lovely!

Boston Engagement Session

I’m totally fascinated by the way people stand, and what they do with their hands & their feet.  In case you were wondering why I always have random shots of people’s lower halves…  :)

I love the sunlight this time of day!

Gosh, Rahel’s eyes are so beautiful!

Boston Engagement Session

At this point in the evening, we walked down to J.P. Lick’s for some delicious ice cream!  (which is funny, since Shoshana & Andy took me there during their eSession as well)  I don’t have photos to show you of this portion because I was a little busy stuffing my face ;)  But after that we walked along the Esplanade for the sunset, and played in the park a bit.

I know the next 2 are a lot alike, but I couldn’t decide which processing I liked better!

Rahel & Yitzi – it was great to see you again – and great to meet you Yitzi!   Thanks for a fun evening, and especially the awesome ice cream!  ;)  It was great getting to hang out with you both and get to know you a little better.  I’m really looking forward to seeing you again in a few weeks for the wedding!!  Hard to believe it’s coming up already, but it’s going to be a blast!!

Mary & Gerard’s Engagement Session – Brookline, MA

Springtime and summer in New England can be a bit, um, rainy – as you saw in the last post.  This can make scheduling engagement sessions a little tricky.  Mary & Gerard were having the worst luck finding a time for their shoot and we ended up doing it just this past week.  There are a bunch of shoots waiting in the queue, but I bumped this one up since they’re getting married one week from today!  I like to make sure clients see their engagement images before the wedding so I can get feedback from them on what they like & what they don’t particularly love.  Plus, if they love them (which clearly I hope they do!), they feel that much more comfortable on the wedding day!  So, in light of that, here are a few of my favorites from Maria & Gerard’s session at Larz Anderson Park!

The sunlight was just perfect that evening!

Anderson Park Engagement Session

It’s a beautiful park, and we only walked around a small part of it!  I can’t wait to explore some more :)

Mary & Gerard – thanks for a fun evening!  It was great to see you, and to meet Gerard at last.  I’m super excited for your wedding – 7 more days!!  Have a GREAT week with your families and I’ll see you sooooon!  :D
