Congrats on your engagement! I love photographing couples during one of the most blissful seasons of life. Engagement shoots are offered at the location of your choosing and truly a great way for you to get to know your photographer before investing in a wedding package
…or, if you already know you want to work with me for your wedding, your engagement shoot is free of charge if you book me for six or more hours on your wedding day.
There’s no need for elaborate prep or a Pinterest-perfect plan for your engagement session. Instead, think of it as a chance to simply be yourselves in a location that feels meaningful to you.
I’ll capture you and your partner in a natural, relaxed way — without the formality of the wedding day. These photos are perfect for sharing on social media, announcing your engagement, and designing your save-the-dates.

Faqs
Do we need to prepare or pose?
Nope! There’s no need for a shot list or Pinterest board. I’ll guide you into natural, comfortable moments, but the best photos happen when you simply relax and enjoy being together.
Where can we do the session?
The location is totally up to you: whether it’s somewhere meaningful to your relationship or just a beautiful spot you love. Travel fees are not assessed unless the venue/session is further than 1.5 to 2 hours from Holliston, MA.
How long is an engagement session?
Typically about 45 minutes to an hour.
What’s included?
Professional editing, a downloadable gallery of high-resolution images, and full personal usage rights (for prints, social media, and save-the-dates).
When will we see our photos?
I usually share a preview within a couple of weeks, and the full gallery will be ready in a few weeks.
Do we get all the photos?
You’ll receive a curated set of the best images (typically around 50). I remove duplicates and any that don’t meet my quality standards.
Do you shoot in black and white and color?
Yes. If I feel a certain image translates beautifully into black and white, I’ll deliver both versions.
