I met up with Laura and Charles in Beacon Hill for engagement pictures before their June wedding at Glen Magna Farms. Laura and Charles used to live in Beacon Hill so we took a little nostalgic stroll through the historic Boston area.
Laura and Charles met when they were both at the same law firm for the summer (along with their good friend Donny who'll actually marry them next month). A friendship slowly transitioned into a relationship after a first date at Fugakyu (a seriously good sushi restaurant in Chestnut Hill that you should totally check out if you haven't been).
After that summer, Laura and Charles had a period of long-distance romance with Laura finishing up school in Nashville and Charles sitting for the bar in Colorado. As they explained, if you have to do long-distance, having Nashville and Colorado as your bases makes everything a lot more fun!
Laura and Charles came back to make their home in Beacon Hill, enjoying summers on Nantucket and winters in Vermont.
We totally lucked out with the weather and beautiful light, we could have probably spent the whole hour on Acorn Street (incidentally the most photographed street in Boston)
Work took Laura and Charles to Washington, DC but they knew they wanted to get married in New England and incorporate lots of Boston/Colorado small touches to their wedding plans.
We finished up the afternoon in the Parish Cafe which was always a favorite with Laura and Charles due to their extensive selection of local and craft beers. Charles was mid-way to achieving his own beer mug but the challenge had to be postponed with the move to DC. The sacrifices we make for love :)
Laura & Charlie - it was a pleasure to finally meet you both. Thank you for being so much fun to hang out with for the afternoon, I can't wait to be your Glen Magna Wedding Photographer! See you next month!
Beautiful photos! Thank you so much for sharing, and warm greetings from Montreal, Canada. :)
