I drove up to Boston last week to meet with Stuart and Lauren for their engagement photo session. I think I can safely speak for both of them when I say the weather report was making us a bit nervous – but with their wedding date rapidly approaching and their busy schedules we knew we had to give it a shot (with a large umbrella in tow, just in case). As it turned out the weather cooperated just long enough – I didn’t run into any hail until I was snug in my car and headed back out of town. Whew!
There are images that scream at me to be black and white – sometimes it ends up being just a few a session, and then there are sessions like this one where black and white images seem to dominate.
I am a big believer that less is often more. My absolute favorite images from the session were taken when I had Stuart & Lauren simply sit in the lawn and enjoy each other. Giving them their space, I worked around them to get some of these fun shots…
Just as images scream to be black and white – this one HAD to be in color.
