Boston Engagement Photos at Boston Common, Charles River and Back Bay
Nilam & Anand Engagement Pictures
About a year ago, Anand came from Boston to New York City to propose to Nilam. I had the wonderful opportunity to capture that very special moment. Since that time, I’ve become quite close to Anand, Nilam and their entire family. Now was the time for their official engagement session and since I’ve only been to Boston several times before, it was only fitting for me to go there to photograph their engagement pictures. Going there is refreshing for any artist to get inspired and to see what one can come up with in a creative manner. What I’ve been told and seen was that Boston Common was the place to be.

Of course there are thousands upon thousands of pictures taken there everyday, so being creative and giving them something that was uniquely theirs and theirs alone is definitely challenging. Boston Commons was definitely very beautiful and I could have spent a whole day their just photographing different aspects of the park but we had to move on. We ended up hitting a little spot near the Charles River which had a great rusted underpass. When I saw it, I knew we could get some great edgier shots there. And finally, we finish off at Back Bay on Newbury Street, another great place with tons of restaurants and places to shop. Enjoy!

We began our session at Boston Common, the oldest public park in the United States. The lush greenery and winding pathways provided a serene setting for the couple’s first portraits. As they strolled hand-in-hand beneath the towering trees and paused for tender moments on the picturesque footbridges, the soft morning light cast a dreamy glow over each frame.

From there, we ventured into Back Bay, a neighborhood that effortlessly blends historic charm with modern elegance. The couple danced along the tree-lined streets, framed by stunning brownstone buildings and the grand architecture of Commonwealth Avenue. Each corner of Back Bay offered a new and unique backdrop, allowing me to capture a variety of moods and emotions in every shot.

As the sun began its descent, we made our way to the Charles River for a breathtaking finale. The golden hour painted the sky with hues of pink and orange, reflecting beautifully on the water’s surface. Against this romantic backdrop, the couple shared quiet, intimate moments, with the iconic Boston skyline shimmering in the distance.
