Is there anything more romantic than an Engagement Session in the springtime? After a winter filled with snow, dark skies, dirty boots and more snow, the entire city of Boston has lifted their spirits at the sights of green grass, budding trees and cherry blossoms. Even the air smells different. There comes no better time to capture love and new beginnings than during the spring. We met up with Gaby, Luis and their pup Cocoa for an afternoon of moseying through the Boston Public Garden and taking photos of this special time in their lives. They are getting married later this month in Mexico and wanted to capture a session in the city they met and fell in love. We had a blast getting to know them and clearly they warmed up to the camera in no time. In fact we had to ask them several times if they were sure they were not professional models. I mean really, would you look at those two? Congratulations Gaby and Luis, enjoy Mexico!!
Katherine + Ian = Engaged
One of our favorite types of engagement sessions are with couples who are slightly shy. I wouldn't exactly call Katherine or Ian shy, but perhaps reserved is a better word. It can be a rather nerve racking thing to have your engagement photos taken especially if you're not used to being in front of the camera. You really don't know what to expect - so mix that in with meeting two new people - it can be a recipe for feeling nervous. We get it. In fact, most of our couples feel this way at the beginning of their engagement session. What we loved about Katherine and Ian, was that even though they both admitted to feeling slightly nervous, when they looked at each other, they were always laughing. It was so endearing. It was as though all of the feelings of being unsure about being in front of the camera, all of the feelings of feeling stranger's eyes watch them as they got their photos taken....all of those things disappeared when they looked at each other. It was just the two of them and the whole world faded away. Adorable. And just so you know, both Katherine and Ian said that it really wasn't as hard as they thought it would be. We say that it can't *not* go well with a love like theirs.
