Classic Boston Engagement Session at the Public Library, Beacon Hill & Public Garden - Cathryn and Brendan

…what tbp couples are saying…

“Tatiana was the absolute best photographer for our wedding!! From our very first meeting, I knew Tati was going to be our photographer. She has a bubbly, infectious, and confident personality, which was exactly what we were looking for. Neither my husband nor I are naturally comfortable in front of the camera, but Tati encouraged us to do an engagement shoot as practice for the big day—and we are so glad we did. She guided us through posing and made both shoots feel effortless.
The majority of our wedding took place indoors, so finding someone who could truly leverage flash was important to us, and Tati was the perfect choice. At the same time, we also took photos outdoors, and those turned out just as beautifully—she is equally talented at using natural light. I was looking for photos that felt elegant and timeless, and that is exactly what we got. She scouted the best locations for our first look, family portraits, and night shots, and guided us through the entire day from a photography perspective. The whole day felt so easy and she had a big role in that. She coordinated with our vendors and made sure my husband and I could enjoy the day and simply focus on each other.
Tati is a warm, kind-hearted professional who brings the perfect level of energy and enthusiasm to your wedding day. We are so glad we met her and worked with her and couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out. Thank you so much for everything, Tati!!”

Boston Engagement

---

Hi there,

Cathryn and Brendan’s Boston engagement session felt like a quiet love letter to the city—classic, elegant, and full of the kind of moments that don’t need to be staged to feel meaningful. From the grand architecture of the Boston Public Library to the charm of Beacon Hill and the soft glow of sunset at the Public Garden, the afternoon unfolded with a natural, effortless rhythm that suited them perfectly.

We began outside the Boston Public Library, one of the most timeless backdrops in the city. The stone façade, wide steps, and graceful arches created a sense of calm sophistication. Cathryn wore a refined, classic look that complemented the architecture beautifully, while Brendan’s tailored style added to the polished feel of the setting. They moved together with an ease that made every frame feel genuine—soft laughter, quiet glances, and a connection that needed very little direction.

Beacon Hill Engagement Photos

From there, we wandered through Commonwealth Avenue and into Beacon Hill. The tree-lined paths, historic brownstones, and iron fences gave the session a romantic, storybook quality. This part of Boston always feels intimate and full of character, and it was the perfect place to capture their playful, affectionate side. Cathryn and Brendan held hands as they strolled along the sidewalks, pausing on quiet corners and sunlit crosswalks, completely in their own world.

To close the session, they changed into a more relaxed, casual look and we headed to the Boston Public Garden just as the light began to soften. The atmosphere shifted into something more intimate and celebratory. As the sun dipped lower, they opened a bottle of champagne and shared a quiet toast by the water. The golden tones of the sunset and the gentle evening glow created a romantic, almost cinematic ending to the day. It felt less like a photoshoot and more like the perfect date night—simple, joyful, and completely true to who they are.

Cathryn and Brendan’s session was a beautiful balance of classic elegance and relaxed romance, capturing both the timeless charm of Boston and the warmth of their connection. It was the kind of afternoon that reminds you how powerful the simplest moments can be when shared with the right person.
