Boston Commonwealth Ave & Public Garden Nighttime Engagement Proposal

BOSTON ENGAGEMENT PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHER


From early December to late April, the trees along the Commonwealth Ave Mall are illuminated with an annual display of twinkle lights that glow up the Back Bay. A favorite spot for taking an evening stroll in the city, Comm Ave is also a beautiful and popular engagement proposal location in Boston. If you’re searching for that special place in Boston to propose to your significant other, definitely give Commonwealth Avenue consideration!

I love photographing nighttime engagement proposals — familiar locations take on a fresh look after the sun sets, with the city lights making for the perfect backdrop for your romantic surprise. When taking pictures at night, typically busy locations like Commonwealth Ave or Boston Public Garden are also less crowded and more private, which is something to consider for those preferring to propose in a public spot with less eyes around. Speaking of Boston Public Garden, this is also a beautiful location to propose at night, particularly along the footbridge with the added holiday lights. Every bit of light helps when photographing at night, and the park provides plenty of illumination for us to shoot with the existing light rather than firing off a flash.

Commonwealth Ave and Boston Public Garden pair well for an engagement session, given they are across the street from each other. With an hour session, we can explore both locations, creating a varied collection of images to capture the spirit of your special night.

Please feel free to get in touch with me if you have questions about planning your surprise proposal. I look forward to documenting your big moment in the best possible way!
