Kaitlin & Noa's Snowy Arboretum Engagement Session

Kaitlin and Noa reached out a few days before the blizzard we had in January asking if I would be available for a snowy photo shoot at Arnold Arboretum after the storm. The arboretum is one of my favorite locations in Boston and I was very excited for some winter wonderland photos there.

I suggested we begin at the arboretum’s Conifer Path for some photos with the snow covered evergreens. The spot exceeded my expectations - the arboretum was so beautiful covered in snow and it was still mostly untouched by human footprints in a lot of the places we ventured through. Once we got deep enough into the path, there were hardly any other people around at all, and the only sound you could hear was a Great Horned Owl hooting high above us. So dreamy!

At the end of our session, we walked up Peters Hill (a serious workout), had a quick snowball fight to catch our breath, and ended at the scenic top of Peters Hill where there is a clear view of the Boston skyline. It was such a unique, beautiful session and from now on I will always suggest post-blizzard photo sessions to anyone who isn’t afraid of the cold. So worth it!

Kaitlin and Noa are adorable enough on their own (I mean, come on you guys), but the magical, snowy landscape certainly helped to make this session one of my all time favorites. Congratulations on your engagement, Kaitlin & Noa! I can’t wait to photograph your wedding soon!
