Our 2025 Couples

A Year of Weddings, Elopements & Engagements in Boston and Beyond

In 2025, we had the honor of photographing incredible couples, primarily in Boston and across Massachusetts, with a handful of celebrations taking us to Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, and Washington, DC. From city weddings to quiet elopements, oceanfront celebrations, and intimate engagement sessions, each story unfolded in its own way—distinct in scale, pace, and intention.

This post is a simple thank-you and a visual roll call: one image from every couple we worked with this year, followed by a small gallery of additional favorites at the end. Each photograph stands in for a day, a place, and a story we were trusted to document.

Whether it was a full wedding day, a micro-wedding, an elopement, or a just-the-two-of-you engagement session, we’re grateful for every moment we were invited into.
