Elizabeth Clark Photography is one seriously awesome bestie.  Because not only did she write the sweetest description EVER of her best friend and her dapper Mr. (a serious must-read), she happened to capture some of the prettiest pics we will ever have the privilege to lay our eyes upon.  Pics that feature the aforementioned stunning duo, the breathtaking city of Boston and a whole lot of l.o.v.e.  Care to bask in every last love-filled moment?  Join me in the gallery for all of the pretty.

 

From Elizabeth Clark Photography… This feature is a special case scenario, as the drop-dead gorgeous lady you are about to view is the one and only Lauren, my best friend since we met at Nobles (in Dedham) in 7th grade. Back in that 1990′s year, she favored wearing Umbros and oversized t-shirts. At some point, those Umbros transformed into mini-skirts and the T-shirts into cashmere sweaters. No matter what style she dons, she is a beauty and, more importantly, one that always makes me happy.

Now I have to admit, as soon as it was obvious that she and her fiance Pat were on a path towards the altar, my gut reaction was “Yes! Best looking models for my portfolio ever!” No really, it was “I am so happy she met this incredibly sweet, funny and cute man.” Or maybe it was “OMG, I am so jealous of that rock” (Pat, you win the Best Engagement Ring contest). The truth boils down to that I am beyond happy for them and for myself. I love this couple more than everything and look forward to years of growing old together.

Since these lovebirds live in the South End, we decided to do a city based shoot. We took a stroll through the Southwest Corridor to Back Bay and the Copley Fairmont Hotel. Along the way I snapped a few shots outside the Boston Public Library and Neiman Marcus, a favorite shopping destination of Lauren’s (I saw the mannequins and figured Lauren and Pat were a mirror image). The Oak Room at the Fairmont was recently renovated, but still holds its old Boston charm (it’s also where we had our high school prom). There we all ordered some drinks and I enjoyed photographing Lauren and Pat as I know them best, my fun-time party buds.

The couple plans to marry out on the Cape this summer – I know it will be an amazing night and that this couple will have an amazing future together as husband and wife!

True story: I am obsessed with libraries.  I love the smell, the feel, the coziness… it’s a wonderland of amazing, if you ask me.  So, when I read that this darling duo spent their first date snuggling up in the warmth of the Boston Public Library, I knew I was about to fall head over heels for their undeniable cuteness and their gorgeous e-session captured by Deborah Zoe Photography.  And guess what?  I was right.  See every last moment of their beautiful day in the full gallery.

 

From Deborah Zoe… Mitch and Claudia had their first date on a very cold but very typical Winter’s night in Boston. Part of that date included escaping to the Boston Public Library to warm up and get to know one another better. Four years later they found themselves in the same spot on a cold Spring afternoon for their engagement session, bringing their love story full circle. Their relationship started in Boston and so a downtown session had a lot of meaning for the two as they celebrated their engagement and looked forward to their wedding this July.

Intimate, meaningful and simple – this wedding from Hannah Perrson warms my heart right up. There is something so special to me about a City Hall wedding, where the most important detail is the love of the newly married couple. It reads like a romantic comedy I would watch over and over again, or, in this case, a gallery of gorgeous images of that special day I get to look at over and over again. See it all here.

 

From Hannah Perrson… Ok, this is one of my favorite weddings based purely on the smallness and simplicity and intimacy of the day. The bride, Grace, her mother, and her grandmother started the day at a beautiful salon in Boston, walked across the street to pick up the lone bouquet, and then proceeded to hail a cab to Cambridge for the wedding at Cambridge City Hall.  The guests stood around the couple as they said their vows in the ceremony that lasted maybe 5 minutes, and they cheered so loud afterward. The day was effortless and charming and felt like it was right out of a romantic movie.
