A Couple’s Journey in Photographs

Every photographer knows that capturing special moments is the key to success.  It’s what everyone wants when they hire you.  Many times, once the final photos are delivered, that’s the end of the relationship between photographer and client.  But once in a while, you get to follow a customer on a longer journey.

One of my favorite weddings of the summer was with Brianna and Sam. After so many years of watching them grow, it was an absolute pleasure to be able to capture the moment they became husband and wife. It was a gorgeous May day in Cohasset, and the Red Lion Inn provided the perfect backdrop for their photos.

I first met Brianna and Sam in 2011 when I was hired to shoot Brianna’s Sweet 16 birthday party.  I met her sister at another event and she hired me to cover the party.  Brianna and Sam were an adorable teenage couple.

A couple years later, Brianna contacted me to shoot some portraits for them before Sam went away to college.  We had a fun photo session at Goddard Park and it was easy to see how connected the two still were.

I was pleasantly surprised when Brianna reached out to me again recently to schedule a session for engagement portraits.  We met up at Charlestown Navy Yard and got some great shots of this couple.

It’s been wonderful watching these two grow up together, and I look forward to capturing many more special days for them in the future.
