Is there anything more magical than snowy engagement photos in Boston? I don’t think so!
Amy & Ryan met me at the Boston Public Gardens on a freezing January day, right after a snowstorm. They wanted fresh snow for their engagement photos and they got just that!
Amy and I first met 10 plus years ago at college! Go Vikings!! We were roommates for a couples years during our time at Salem State so when Amy reached out to me about being her wedding photographer, I immediately said yes!
When I first met with Amy and Ryan over zoom (my first interaction with Ryan), it was apparent from the beginning of the call that they are meant to be together. It’s hard to explain but I could just tell. They both laugh with each other so I knew we’d have a fun time at their engagement shoot.
As I mentioned, it was FREEZING the day of their engagement photos. A & R envisioned a snowy shoot since they are having a summer wedding (which I can’t wait for!)
I think we all laughed the entire shoot, it was so much fun! A & R were up for anything, especially my weird prompts. If a couple is up for my weird and awkward prompts, I know we were meant to work together!
Snowy Engagement photos in Boston are one of my favorites. There are so many places to take photos in a short distance. Another reason I love working with A & R…they were up for all the locations I wanted to take photos at even if it meant staying out longer in the cold.
Check out some of my favorite images. I think you’ll understand why I love this couple!

If you’ve been following me for a bit, you probably have noticed by now that Newburyport is one of my favorite locations for any shoot. Within such a short distance, there are so many spots with different backgrounds and its perfect for any season.
I first met Elizabeth at a wedding show I did in the fall and we immediately connected. I loved her energy, our conversation and she is getting married at one of my favorite venues. Elizabeth emailed the night of the show wanting to chat more about her wedding (which I was so excited about) and now I’ll be capturing her and Daron’s wedding day later this year!
When it was time to book their Newburyport engagement photos, they wanted winter photos (cozy, snow, hot cocoa) you know, all the winter stuff! The day of their engagement photos, it was the deep freeze, remember -30 with wind-chill so we rescheduled.
Once we were finally able to do their photos, there was no snow but that didn’t stop us! Elizabeth came prepared with hot cocoa for some cozy photos which are some of my favorite and different accessories to change up the photos (I highly recommend doing this)!
Although freezing, it was so much fun! I can’t wait for their wedding!

With under 100 days until Sarah & Nick’s wedding, I am sharing more from their Winchester engagement shoot.
Sarah reached out to me soon after she got engaged. They knew they wanted to get married in less than a year, had their venue picked out and needed a photographer. While talking to Sarah, I knew I was meant to be their wedding photographer (I know it sounds corny lol.) But it’s true.
For their Winchester engagement shoot, I took them to my hometown because there are some many great spots! We started off at the library and then made our way to The Fells.
I always love shooting at a location that has different backdrops in a short distance. It breaks up the session but also provides different backdrops for your photos which I think is so important.
I can’t wait to capture their day in a couple months in Sturbridge! And I can’t wait to share photos from their big day!
I love going to my hometown for engagement photos, let’s chat!
