I am a full-time photographer who thrives on connection, community and great coffee. I love my job because I get to meet new people every day, and I get to show off my favorite spots around Boston & Cape Cod! My photography style is joyful and fresh, and my goals are to make you feel comfortable, to capture memories that you'll treasure, and to have fun during our time together. I've been a photographer since 2014 and even though I was born and raised in MA, I've lived in North Carolina and North Dakota for a few years each, so those places feel like home to me too!

I emphasize capturing real, raw, and authentic moments for you to cherish in photograph form. Of course, I am happy to aid with poses or planning but find the best photos come when you are just spending time with the people you love. Inspiration photos are always welcomed!

I'm known for making genuine connections all while being a dedicated storyteller who captures romance, candids, the big moments, and all of the details in between. Also, I'm not afraid of making a fool out of myself to get your kiddos to laugh, so be prepared for some silliness! I welcome incorporating lifestyle elements into your session, such as a stop for a fun ice cream, getting coffee at a local cafe, or anything that will tell a story about your time in the city. When your memories are fading my images are there to bring it all back.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some proposal tactics to choose from?

expand_less expand_more
  • Friendly Tourist: Your Flytographer, posing as a friendly tourist, will offer to take a photo of you and your partner.
  • Vacation Cover: Let your partner know that you’ve booked a regular couple’s photo shoot so you can prepare for the photo shoot together without suspicion.
  • Fly on the Wall: Your photographer will remain hidden for the actual proposal. While this allows for an intimate moment, it is the most risky as passersby could interrupt your shot.
  • Customized: We are happy to adjust these scenarios if you have another idea in mind for how you would like your proposal to go!

Will I be connected with my proposal photographer directly?

expand_less expand_more

Yes! Immediately after you book your Flytographer in Boston, you will be connected via email to begin the proposal planning process together and create the perfect plan. You can choose from one of the above proposal scenarios, or share another idea, and ask them any specific questions you might have leading up. Your photographer will be able to share their favourite tips on how to plan your Boston proposal.

What is the difference between a proposal and engagement shoot?

expand_less expand_more

Your proposal photo shoot with us in Boston would involve your Flytographer capturing the moment when you get down on one knee to surprise your partner with a marriage proposal. After the big moment in a proposal photo shoot, you can transition to taking engagement photos if you choose a longer session.

Engagement photo shoots with us would take place after the proposal moment (when you are already engaged) and involve capturing your newly engaged bliss. If you are already engaged, you can book a normal engagement session rather than a proposal photo shoot.

How much does a proposal photographer cost in Boston?
