Want more from Amanda and Ed? Check out their wedding part 1, part 1,2 and their e-session slideshow.

Can’t wait for their wedding this spring at Indian Pond.

More to come soon with the Country Mouse portion of the e-session!

We had a ball. The four of us (and our guide Taylor) meandered our way to various seating areas, with views of the field and the Green Monster, and some amazingly cool signage. We laughed, we cheered, they kissed and snuggled. It was pretty much just plain awesome. And so now we get to share a few photos from an afternoon well spent…

Especially fun way to make use of the empty seats. Yup, they are kissing as they cheer in the back. Looks like a Red Sox victory move to me.

I don’t think I actually realized there were seats up by the Green Monster.

One of my favorite snuggling shots.

Such history and such character in this park.

After our Fenway tour, we met up with the rest of the family. Meet Tank and Kona. Two of the cutest bulldogs (one English, one French) you have ever seen.

Walking the dogs around the park.

These pooches are fans, too.

Really, just so many more fab images to share. Check ‘em out.

Cassie and Dan, thank you for an absolutely amazing afternoon. We can’t wait to celebrate with you this fall on Martha’s Vineyard!

And so it was with Cleo and Dieter. They had initially thought we should do the session in New York City, as they live right across from the Big Apple. But as the day approached, we realized that their town of Hoboken provided the perfect backdrop for their session. They showed us their favorite spots to walk and bike ride, and the views of Manhattan were the views they could see by stepping out their door. Absolutely perfect!

We started down by the water. You can pretty much see the Empire State Building from anywhere in town. I especially love this photo because their story is central, but there are also two other neighborhood stories and life cycle stories- the dad and his son on the right were fishing (future family) and the couple by the railing is an elderly couple (to me, symbolizing the golden years in Cleo and Dieter’s life together).

Dancing and fooling around. Why not?!

On our walk, we popped onto the campus of the Stevens Institute of Technology (Cleo takes a class here for fun). Wow, the views! It must be a great place to go to school.

Hoboken just built this fabulous new park on the water. And there was this beautiful bridge.

We finished our tour at the Hoboken Terminal (Dieter rides his bike through here every day). It has character and charm and few people on a Saturday. It is truly a gem of a spot.

Loving this simple formal portrait.

A quiet moment.

And this one with a bit more drama.

After we were done, we took a cab back to their apartment and enjoyed brunch at one of their neighborhood haunts. I couldn’t get over how great Hoboken was. Having never been there, I had no idea. Seeing the town through their eyes was such fun. And seeing them through a filter of their town helped me get to know Cleo and Dieter even better.

If you would like to see a few more, check out their slideshow.

One of my favorite images because it totally feels like Eleni and John. I can’t help falling in love with them.

One of the things Johnnie wanted was to capture the alleyways and hidden places of the North End. So we ventured off Hanover Street and away from the Freedom Trail. We found beautiful secluded spots.

Another favorite place of theirs is the narrowest house (and boy is it narrow), and they love the ironwork by that alley. So….

Of course, since they had their first date here, we wanted to pop in and capture a few images for them there. The folks at Bricco were very gracious about letting us hang out at the bar for a few minutes.

A perfect afternoon all around. Really, there are tons more of amazing images. So if you can’t wait for their fall wedding at the Greek Orthodox Cathedral and the Charles Hotel, definitely check out their slideshow.

When we met up with them at their home on Long Island, we got to know them better and to see a bit of their life in this beautiful small town.

We started at their home, where they had just finished re-landscaping. Everything looked amazing so we wanted to show off the house as well as the two of them.

Sweet and sexy all at once.

Hanging out inside. The character of their home definitely shines through in this image.

After a quick wardrobe change (Amanda wanted to capture the contrast between nicer clothes and a more casual environment), we walked over to their local park. A great place with evening concerts, weekend festivals and a museum.

Statues.

Loving the dreaminess of the reflection behind them and the steaminess of their moment.

Among the grasses.

Enjoying the flowers.

So Greg’s one request was that we not use props. But then at the end of the shoot, we saw this ice cream truck. It wasn’t planned, but it was so bright colorful and "casual" that it had to be a part of our shoot. And besides, Amanda and I both wanted ice cream. Sorry, Greg.

Yummy!

Heat in the background and cool ice cream in the foreground. LOVE!

A truly great day with tons of photos to share. Now we can’t wait for their wedding at the Liberty Hotel! In the meantime, I highly recommend checking out their slideshow for a few more of our faves.

For their engagement session, we knew two things. First, we had to find our way to that dock. And second, Lucy would have to make an appearance. So we started our foggy morning e-session at the river esplanade.

I love how they hold hands.

And we made our way from the bridges and green spaces to the infamous dock.

This one reminds me of cornfields, which in turns reminds me of the midwest. And since they met at Ohio State, I find it all very fitting.

Lucy steals the show as we take her for a walk and some playtime in the Back Bay.

Along the beautiful tree lined path of Commonwealth Ave, a spot the family enjoys often. I love Lucy’s expression.

If you want more of Ayesha, Jon and Lucy’s Charles River engagement session and Back Bay family session, definitely check out their slideshow. So much fun!

We met up at Fan Pier by the Boston courthouse, offering great views of downtown Boston even on this gray day and some absolutely beautiful flowering trees.

Did I mentioned that it was windy and rainy? Not the whole time, but we certainly felt a few drops. Of course, that didn’t deter these two. Romantic, no?

And we had lots of laughs.

Love the contrast of stealy blue water and a soft tender moment.

Another smooch.

Yup. Boston is beautiful. And I can almost hear the music they might be dancing to on the dock.

The Barking Crab wall is one of my favorite spots. And on a gray day, the color is even more fun.

So glad we ventured out in the not-so-perfect weather and were able to capture these of Erica and Bill. If you want to see a few more, check out their slideshow.

Another little bit of magic, is the story of how they met. Perhaps it is even a bit of movie magic, because they have a When Harry Met Sally story. (One of my all-time fave flix, by the way.) If they were sitting on a couch and recorded it, it would have fit in perfectly.

You see Caitlin and Nick both attended the same weekend music school for 3 years while they were in high school and never met. Nick saw Caitlin perform at their school, but they didn’t meet then either. They even have a photo from their class and they are separated by one row and they never met. Not until they attended a summer program in Colorado did they meet. They enjoyed dating for a few months, but they were headed in different directions for college and didn’t want to be long distance. They saw each other each summer, but they were still focusing on other things. That is until Caitlin took Nick out for his 25th birthday celebration. From that point on, there was no denying that these two were meant to be.

And really you can see what a perfect match they are for each other simply by watching how they look at each other.

Our session took us in and around Lincoln Center to capture their relationship and their connection to music.

And when we got cold, we ventured inside to do a few more photos in their home.

The session was a perfect mix, reflecting their lives, their relationship and their connection to the city. And I can’t imagine a more perfect time of year to do it!

Huge thanks to Caitlin and Nick for being so great to work with and for sharing your music with us! We truly can’t wait for your wedding!
