Yesterday was my first romp around the Charles– I have lived near Boston for 10 years.
I’ll admit to having driven along both Storrow and Memorial Dr., but I never really wandered. I never really enjoyed this pleasure right here in my own backyard.
That’s one of the things I love most about this job: learning about and exploring new places–often ones close to home. This couple suggested the Charles as a background to their shoot, and I suggested the time: sunset. The day came through on its part of the bargain bringing a perfect summer breeze, textured clouds, and brilliant light.
What a backdrop? Right?
So tell me, what are some of your favorite both hidden and obvious gems in the Boston area? Where do you explore? Where do you wander? What is the perfect backdrop for your love story?
