Not to be outdone–a fairytale in the arboretum

Alisa & Chris re-enact their engagement moment but this time with paparazzi in tow.

Alisa & Chris re-enact their engagement moment but this time with paparazzi in tow.

Chris and Alisa are friends with Al and Melissa and their weddings next year are exactly one month apart.  Funny how things work out like that but word of mouth referrals beat $$$ advertising any damn day!  Alisa had an idea of a fairytale theme and it started for her with that sleek and sexy, shimmery green dress she had hanging around in her closet.  She dressed Chris for success and the pix speak for themselves.  We started in the Arnold Arboretum and then hopped over to Beacon Hill to do some guerrilla shooting along the cobblestones and under the gas lamps.  We finished our night with great conversation at a wine bar on Charles Street–thanks for the vino tinto.

Late day sun makes this shot with just the tiniest bit of fill flash--sweet!
