I knew we were going to be a great fit when Isabella & Greg reached out about Beacon Hill engagement photos featuring their go-to ice cream shop. Anyone who’s as obsessed with ice cream as I am is a friend of mine! 

They wanted to document their summer engagement photos in charming Beacon Hill because it’s where they first lived together. I had the best time capturing their fun-loving energy that clearly shines through in their final gallery.

Time of Day for Beacon Hill Engagement Photos

Beacon Hill is beautiful no matter the time or season. Isabella & Greg were super comfortable and excited to be in front of the camera, so we opted to start their engagement session an hour before sunset. I suggest opting for a sunrise or mid-day engagement session if you’re a couple who feels like you’d be most comfortable without a bunch of people walking around. This popular part of the city gets super crowded with tourists at night and on weekends — especially in the summer and fall months!

Unique Engagement Photo Ideas

I ALWAYS encourage couples to brainstorm locations that are meaningful to their relationship for their session (I even wrote a blog about it: How to Get Non-Basic Engagement Photos).

It’s a win-win! You get some fun photos documented in a special place while also capturing super creative engagement photos that are super unique to you. Isabella & Greg would always walk to the J.P Licks in Beacon Hill for ice cream. They asked me if we could stop there at the end of their engagement session, I immediately said “yes!!””

Summer Engagement Photos in Boston

They were actually moving back to Austin, TX (where Isabella is from) a few days after our shoot. These photos were extra special in a sense where when they’d look back at them and cherish their time in Boston together. I was so honored to document these summer engagement photos in Beacon Hill for this awesome couple. I hope our paths cross again the next time they’re back in Boston because were truly a joy to hang out with for the evening!

Kind Words from the Isabella & Greg

“Maddy is an absolute joy to work with, and her photos are gorgeous! We did our engagement photos with her and could not be happier with how they turned out. Would absolutely recommend her if you are looking for a Boston area photographer!!”
