Photography asks a lot of you. There is the technical side, learning light and composition. Then there is the human side, knowing how to read a room, asking the right questions, and making people feel seen. I've always found myself adept at both. There are many sides to the coin that is me, and with Caitlin and Evan, I was reminded of that duality.

People always ask me where the best place for engagement photos in Boston is. My answer is almost never, "the most famous spot." It's wherever your story actually happened. For Lily and Ian, that meant all over their newfound city.

Not every engagement session starts with a park, a waterfront, or Boston's cobblestone streets. Sometimes it starts in an empty restaurant before dinner service, with a camera, a flash, and an idea. That’s exactly was Caroline and Taylor wanted.

Most proposals I photograph come to me as a rough draft — an idea with a few details that we shape together along the way. Gavin’s proposal for Rachelle was the complete opposite. It arrived fully formed, carefully thought through, and organized down to the smallest detail.

The night before a wedding is always the most intimate part of the weekend. Less structure, more feeling. It is where friends and family fully arrive, conversations stretch out, and everything starts to feel real. Sammi and Danny’s rehearsal dinner in Plymouth had all of that, plus a sky that could not decide what it was doing.

Most proposal stories involve one ring, one plan, and one very nervous person. For Zoie and MJ, this was not one of those stories.

Being both Type A and from Boston, with no shortage of opinions about this city, comes in handy when boyfriends reach out looking to plan the perfect proposal day. So when Christian found me on TikTok and reached out about proposing to Sarah, he wasn't looking for just a Boston proposal photographer, but someone to help him plan a day that felt intentional.

The best portraits rarely start the way people think they do. It’s not about perfect posing or carefully planned direction. More often, it starts with something much simpler: ease. An undercurrent of comfort that builds slowly, until the camera stops feeling like the center of anything. That was the case with Claire.

Boston City Hall is one of those buildings people seem to either passionately love or passionately hate. Grace falls firmly into the first camp, which is exactly why she and Alex chose it for their intimate civil ceremony instead of getting married a bit closer to home.

Tori and Jesse moved to Boston from Texas and wanted engagement photos that actually felt like Boston, not just the polished postcard version of it.

Some weddings feel meticulously planned. Others feel strangely preordained. Photographing Daria and Seán’s intimate ceremony at Saint Cecilia Parish in Back Bay felt very much like the latter.

There’s something funny about realizing the giant hill you casually ran around as a kid is actually… still a giant hill. Returning to the Arnold Arboretum for Patricia and Dewin’s session felt both familiar and completely new to me.

They say a wet knot is harder to untie, so when Kaitlyn and Jordan’s engagement session in Beacon Hill was met with a little rain, we didn’t fight it — we leaned into it.

I met Taryn and John in Beacon Hill at golden hour for their engagement photos during that early spring stretch when Boston finally starts giving us longer days again. There’s a noticeable shift this time of year.

Dani and Brendan reached out while they were in the middle of a major life transition—packing up their first apartment together in Boston and preparing to move to California.

For Sejal and Akash, this engagement shoot was about more than photos—it was about honoring heritage.

If you’re searching for a Boston City Hall elopement, you’re probably already drawn to the idea of something intimate, meaningful, and deeply personal in the heart of the city. Khin and Damien’s wedding day was exactly that

Paola had booked a couples shoot during their first trip to Boston, drawn to the neighborhood’s historic charm and timeless feel. What she didn’t know was that Nico had already reached out to me beforehand with a plan: he was going to propose.

If you’re looking for Boston family photography, winter might not be the first season that comes to mind — but it should be.

Just two weeks before Katrina and Savonne were to meet their baby, we met in a South Boston studio where excitement mingled with anticipation.
