Share a little bit about the two of you?

We’re just two weirdos getting married on Friday the 13th with a zombie wedding cake. What’s there to say beyond that? Brian asked me to add that he said, “Nailed it!”

What was really important to you when looking for a photographer?

We wanted someone who could cut past our camera awareness and captured who we are in our element.

Were you nervous about your engagement session?

A little – neither of us love having our picture taken. It was easy once we realized all we had to do is relax and talk about breakfast cereal.

How did you decide your venue?

The idea for an engagement shoot started with when we wanted pictures of us burying our bottle of whiskey for our reception. It seemed only natural to turn into a mini photoshoot around the brewery and reception hall as well since they are both so unique.

Boston Engagement Session, Bradley Estate: Anna and Sam

July 12, 2019/0 Comments/in Engagement /by Charlie

Share a little bit about the two of you?

We initially met on the first day of college in 2007 when we were placed in the same freshman seminar, but didn’t start dating until after we finished college and both moved to Boston. We are complete opposites in so many ways, but find that we compliment and balance each other very well because of it.

What was really important to you when looking for a photographer?

We wanted someone whose work felt authentic, stylish, and modern. Genuine, yet simultaneously polished. Outside of stylistic concerns, we also wanted someone who would be easy to work with, pleasant to interact with, and detail oriented to ensure we captured everything on the big day.

Were you nervous about your engagement session?

A little! Both of us weren’t used to being professionally photographed, so we weren’t sure what to expect. We wanted to make sure to capture our natural interactions while still being flattering, and Angie nailed it! She made us feel so comfortable and the photos came out better than we could have ever imagined.

How did you decide your venue?

Sam is from Vermont and it has been a special place for us throughout our relationship. We love Burlington and wanted to get married in that area so our friends and family could experience the city, and hopefully love it like we do.

Laura and Jack: Outdoor Engagement Session

Share a little bit about yourselves

Jack and I met in high school and we’ve been together for almost 10 years! It’s been really special to grow up together — going through major life events like high school and college, first jobs and apartments, etc. Our friends and family have also gotten really close over the last decade so our wedding day is going to be incredible special with everyone.

Why did you decide to do an engagement session

We decided to do the engagement session because neither of us have been professionally photographed, outside of a school picture day or being in a wedding party. Angie suggested that getting in front of the camera, especially together as a couple, would be a great way to work out some of the awkwardness we might feel before being photographed on our wedding day.

How did you feel before after and during the session?

Before the session we were both nervous — it felt like an awkward task to be photographed in romantic poses. However, Angie was great and assured us awkward moments can make for great photographs! Jack and I are both outgoing and laugh a lot, so during the session we laughed out any weirdness and eventually figured out we needed more guidance. It was great to build rapport with Angie and also to know what to expect on our wedding day. We’re both so glad we did the engagement shoot — we feel more comfortable in front of the camera for our wedding day.
