Fatima and Jerry got in touch with me to take photos to celebrate their recent engagement! They wanted a mix of classic engagement shots and some fun, spontaneous ones. When I saw their Pinterest board, I knew exactly where downtown to go to capture their vibe perfectly. In this blog, I am sharing two locations that are perfect for downtown engagement photos in Boston!
Boston Engagement Celebrating Fatima and Jerry
Fatima and Jerry began dating at 15 years old, both freshmen in high school. Nearly seven years later, he popped the question! Now at 21 and 22, they’re planning their wedding in Cancun for 2025!!

Fatima and Jerry wanted plenty of flash photography with a touch of elegant speakeasy vibes. That’s why I recommended City Bar at the Lenox Hotel. I took care of all the arrangements with the Lenox Hotel staff, ensuring they didn’t have to worry about a thing. Then, we met up and created magic together!
Pro Tip: Get your Boston engagement photos done with a local photographer who can help you find the perfect location for your engagement shoot. Like my style? Let’s connect, here!
Two Beautiful Locations, One City
It was early spring and a bit cold, so we were glad to spend half the session inside at the bar to escape from the chilly winds of that day!
For the rest of our session together, we toughed it out with the chilly winds on the top of a Boston garage that overlooks The Prudential (an iconic Boston sight).

Notable Locations Nearby: Boston Public Library, Beacon Hill, Fenway Park
We kept moving around to stay warm and what I loved most was that Fatima and Jerry never once complained about the weather. They were just lost in their love for each other!
The personalization on the champagne glasses was unique and fun! Another touch of something unique to them to celebrate with for years to come! I love when my couples bring personalized and meaningful props to their session with them 🙂
Down to Earth Downtown Engagement Photos in Boston
In Boston, you cannot go wrong any location. Fatima and Jerry opted for two private locations to ensure that their engagement photoshoot was intimate and the focus was on each other.
Pro Tip: When you choose to work with me as your Boston Photographer, I help assist with location planning and reservations! In this engagement shoot, I handled all of the communication with the bar reservation.
Kind Words from Fatima & Jerry’s Boston Engagement Photos
“We cannot recommend Paula enough!! She was such a dream to work with and made the whole process so easy for us! I have done photoshoots in the past but nothing like this one, she was so warm & welcoming and walked us through step by step of everything to come and poses to switch into and have the mindset of us being in a movie scene!
We got our sneak peeks in just a couple of days and were able to see what was to come and were in love!! No need to think twice, just book! <3”
Fatima and Jerry were incredibly sweet, and it felt like an instant connection between us. By the end, we were joking around and giving each other hugs goodbye. Their love for each other was so evident, and I appreciated how much they enjoyed laughter because I’m a big fan of it too!
What I loved most about working with Fatima and Jerry was how closely I collaborated with them to bring their vision to life, drawing on both their ideas and my expertise of the area.
