Tricia & Frey’s Engagement Session at Carson Beach in Boston, MA

Tricia and Frey met a decade ago while working together at Abercrombie & Fitch. There was an undeniable spark between them when they met, and their professional relationship soon turned romantic! They have since been together for many years, enjoying the ups and weathering the downs of life together and have built a strong foundation for their relationship. Frey knew it was time to propose to Tricia and he planned a Harry Potter-themed proposal in June this past summer, as they are big fans of the book and movie series! On the day of the proposal, they had a movie night watching Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore. Afterwards, they went out onto Castle Island with a bottle of wine and a Gryffindor blanket to watch the sunset, and Frey got down on one knee and proposed to Tricia with a beautiful golden snitch ring box! Tricia excitedly accepted and the pair have been planning for their 2023 summer wedding ever since!

Tricia and Frey were in search of a photographer and videographer for their wedding and reached out to me because they resonated with my work. I got to know the pair over the course of a few calls and found them to be warm and genuine individuals, and incredibly in love with each other! They booked me for both photo & video for their upcoming celebration and I was so excited to have the opportunity to work with them. We planned to get to know each other better with an engagement session at Carson Beach in Boston, MA, not far from Castle Island where they had originally gotten engaged.

We arrived an hour before sunset on the date we selected for the engagement session, and Tricia and Frey blew me away with their friendliness and ease right off the bat! I was immediately struck by how comfortable they were in front of the camera — the two posed like real models. The clouds on the horizon provided us with some nice soft lighting for our beach photoshoot. Although there were quite a few volleyball games occurring on the beach during our session time, we were able to use some creative angles and areas to make it appear like the beach was all but deserted in the photos!

We started off right at the edge of the shoreline, and the pair wasn’t shy about getting in the damp sand to capture some beautiful images of them in front of the surf as the tide rolled in. We wandered around the beach for different backgrounds and stopped by the tall grasses and stone embankment for a couple of shots! Their love and passion for each other shone through in each photo, and I loved to see how much fun they were having.

While we talked, walked, laughed, and took photos, I got to learn more about Tricia and Frey and their plans for their wedding. Needless to say, I am even more excited to be a part of their big day now! We ended the session at the beautiful columned stone pavilion on one side of the beach, where Frey recreated his proposal to Tricia (yes, with the golden snitch ring box!) and we snapped a few more images. We didn’t say our goodbyes until the sun started dipping below the horizon!

Tricia and Frey were absolutely stunning models at their beach engagement session. I’m looking forward to working with them again for their wedding this August at The Villa in Bridgewater, MA! Check out some photos from this lovely day below:
