Vibrant LGBTQ Mt Auburn Cemetery Wedding, Cambridge MA

It’s been over a month and I am still thinking about this wedding. That’s saying a LOT for a New England wedding photographer in October. Charlie (they/them) and Isaac (he/him) we wed on a jaw-droppingly gorgeous autumn day in Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, MA at the Bigelow Chapel. And BOY am I thrilled it was their celebration to set the tone for a busy wedding season.

LGBTQ North End Summertime Boston Engagement

I loved this timeless engagement session recently in the North End with Rhea (they/them) and Salem (they/them)... I will never get over how effortless it feels to capture queer love.

A merry-go-round ride at Quincy Market preceded some gelato and hand-holding throughout the North End, with a dusky rose-garden somewhere in-between.

LGBTQ Downtown Boston Springtime Session

A chance online meeting, a weirdly similar astro chart, and a chemistry that defied distance. I had so much fun capturing Shai (they/them) and Jett (they/them) on a gorgeous sunny Boston day in April. Fresh blooms and late-day sun adorned the Charles River Esplanade and Public Garden, and we took our time ambling about and enjoying the sights.

Diners, Dates, and I-Do's: Retro LGBTQ Engagement in Boston

I always love when I shoot with clients who feel like friends. Truj (they/them) & Brian (they/them) are just Like That - magnetic and companionable. When we first met, we talked for ages about everything: art, poetry, video games, tattoos, cosplay, music, travel, podcasts, food. They love everything, they want to know about everything, and they want to try everything, together.

It was clear to me that these are people who share a zest for life, and found each other to explore what it has to offer. That, personally, is what the Ideal truly is.

Rooted in Community: An Earthy and Cozy LGBTQ Boston Engagement Session

These two are extremely dedicated and invested contributors to the local arts. Shira (they/them) works as a director and dramaturg and Colin (he/him) is an experienced stage manager.

Together they invest their time and skill in showcasing the talent, thoughts, and works of the LGBTQIA+ artists and activists in the greater Boston area. Their dedication is evident in the work they do, and I can tell they build off each other, inspire each other, and most of all, support and love one another.
