Joe and Sara's engagement session

Engagement sessions are such a fun way to get to know the happy couple before the wedding day. I had briefly met Sara while shooting another wedding, but had never met Joe at all, so I was anxious to find out more about their personal style.



It was a hot and busy day at Castle Island. We arrived a bit early to scope out the best vantage points and plan our shoot. With Chris on camera and myself and Chris Lazzery assisting, we were able to do a completely handheld shoot. (By the way, tackling the reflector on a breezy day was no small feat - thanks Laz!)



Our laid-back couple was relaxed, happy, and clearly crazy about each other throughout the session, and even through a few takes. Their preppy style was perfectly Bostonian. And the sunset cooperated perfectly, as did the patient pedestrians who waited for us to get the shot. All in all, it was a great day and I can't wait for the wedding!
