Romantic, Modern Engagement Photography | Boston, MA | Shauna and Ciaran

Shauna, Ciaran and I met up at the Boston Public Garden and Beacon Hill in Boston for their engagement shoot this past weekend. They brought along their two year old daughter, Eve, who is so adorable. Can you believe that Shauna said that her and Ciaran weren't photogenic??

Here's the story of how they met and their engagement in Shauna's words:  

Both coming from Ireland and our hometown about 300 miles apart, Ciaran and I met through some mutual friends in 2003 at a BBQ, we eventually got together in the summer of 2007 when at last we were both mutually single for the first time. Our friends said it was inevitable and no one was surprised when we got together (actually I do believe there were a few bets placed that summer on the fact that we eventually would!). Eve came along in December 2009, combining the best of both of us, she reminded us how right we are for each other. In October 2011 Eve and Ciaran arrived home one evening, I heard some mumbling and then Eve shout "NO!" and throw something on the floor (in true Eve style). I went into check what was going on. Eve picked up the bag and handed it to me. There was a handwritten message attached from Ciaran and on the bag it read "Mammy, will you marry Daddy?" Helping me open the box, Eve insisted on wearing  "Mama's Pretty" on her thumb. We celebrated with our friends at an Irish Festival that weekend.

I'm so looking forward to celebrating with Shauna and Ciaran in September!

Kim and Aaron | New Hampshire Rustic Wedding Photography | Mills Falls

Kim and Aaron were married at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Tilton, New Hampshire, with their reception following at Mills Falls Inn in Meredith, New Hampshire. Thanks so much to the amazing Zev Fisher for having me along to second shoot! Zev brought the couple to a cute, little diner on the way to the reception for portraits. The employees were super nice and let us spend a few minutes in there shooting away and donated the delicious milkshake too!

The ring bearers wore personalized converse sneakers -- so cute!

Boston Wedding Photographer | Hampshire House | Jody and Jay

Jody and Jay were married over the weekend at the Hampshire House in Boston. Hampshire House is a beautiful venue tucked away above the iconic Boston bar, Cheers. Yes, the weather provided us with a little more wind than we could bear, but Jody was a good sport and we ventured out into the streets of Beacon Hill to snap a few portraits. Jody was rocking a classic, gorgeous Pricilla of Boston gown (she snagged one before they went out of business!), which went perfectly with the feel of the venue. Congratulations Jody and Jay!

Jody's cousin sang the first dance song, and she was amazing...

I love Jody's reaction during her Dad's speech...

Time for dinner...

...and then cake!

The night concluded with a flash mob to LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It", which was a huge hit!

Their online gallery will be available soon! Check http://lindsayflanagan.nextproof.com/galleries/JodyJayWedding for more photos from their day!

Elizabeth and Benny's beautiful New York City wedding was published in The Knot New York Magazine last month.  Thanks to all who helped make this happen, including the amazingly talented Shawn Rabideau who coordinated and designed their entire day. 

Boston Newborn Photographer | Madeleine Grace

Madeleine Grace arrived on January 30th and her parents, Alison and Jordan, couldn't be happier! Madeleine is the definition of cuteness. She must have known I was coming because she was definitely prepared to sleep all day. I even got to hold her for a little bit, which reminded me how small Oliver was once (tears!). Congratulations Alison and Jordan!
