JOHN & KATE:: Jamaica Pond: Engagement [Boston]

With three different schedules to coordinate, I was a bit concerned that we wouldn't work out an engagement session before John & Kate's late August wedding, but thankfully the stars (and the weather) aligned for us yesterday morning at the beautifully picturesque Jamaica Pond. This is a fun couple...lovey and affectionate without being prompted and always making each other laugh. "Foreheads together and gaze affectionately" would not be something they would ever do! So we just had fun. They are so in love it's ridiculous...in a good way. Their laughter is infectious and when I am around them I seriously can not stop smiling. Just by looking at the images, you will catch yourself laughing...I know it! They respect each other so much and have built their relationship upon a rich, life long friendship which over time has led to a deep love and partnership. Amazingly...it almost "wasn't." As so often happens when we know someone awesome, we want to set them up with other awesome people in our lives. Kate almost did just that, but luckily stopped and said: "what the heck am I doing?!" Stay tuned in the coming weeks for their wedding weekend festivities; which I have the privilege to shoot!  I am beyond excited. Highlights will include: A piano bar, an Inn, a Beach and a Clam Bake...."yeah, you should definitely check back!"

cheers & enjoy*
