We FINALLY got to spend some time together with Liz and Jason last Sunday!! I say finally because we literally have been trying to get together for weeks now but the weather just would not cooperate every time we had a date scheduled. This past Sunday was no different, but I got a phone call from Jason asking if we’d be up to getting together in the morning since the rain wasn’t supposed to get to us until Sunday afternnoon. So that’s exactly what we did and it worked out perfectly. About 1/2 hour after our session, the rain started coming down so the timing was absolutely perfect!
When Liz and Jason came to us and said they wanted a different kind of photo session, we were all ears. They told us that their idea was to take a series of photos together with some printed numbers and use them for the table numbers at their wedding! We haven’t done anything like that before and thought it sounded like so much fun! So we met up with Liz and Jason at their home in Somerville and that’s right where we started getting a few “table photos” done right inside their condo even getting a few with their cat and dog. We took this one for Table No. 4 right in their stairwell against this very cool brick wall that I would love to have in our own office:
We then started making our way around Somerville, making stops at all of these different locations that had special meaning for them. We stopped at the dog park around the corner where they always take their adorable Chihuahua/Rat terrier mix named Lola to play. That’s also where we got this photo for Table No. 7:
We also stopped at Prospect Hill to get some very neat shots with the skyline in the background and Liz and Rene convinced Jason to actually climb a tree - a very tall one, I might add - to get this shot:
The story behind this photo, though, is actually VERY funny. As we were walking, Liz spontaneously suggested that Jason should climb this tree. Jason jumped to reach one of the lower braches and after realizing just how high it was he said, “You know what? This is really too high, I can’t do this”. But just at that moment, Liz and Rene jumped up and pushed him right up into the tree anyways. I guess they were not about to miss this opportunity. It was pretty funny. And totally worth it for that shot, though, don’t you think??
We also stopped at the place where they went on their first date, where Jason proposed to Liz and a few other places, too. I could keep going but I want there to be a little element of surprise for their guests at the wedding! Little Lola came with us wherever we went, too which was absolutely adorable. We got so many great images of her and here’s one of my favorites:
How adorable is she?? This session was just so much fun and such a unique idea. I’m so happy that they thought of it and hope that we get to do it again soon!
And now Liz and Jason are getting married in just three short weeks! They’re getting married at ther Ritz Carlton in Boston and we absolutely cannot wait for it. Stay tuned for some more photos from their wedding!
