Cherry Blossom Couple Session at Arnold Arboretum | Boston Wedding Photographer

Arnold Arboretum Cherry Blossom Couples Session

Elena and Scott’s cherry blossom couple session at the Arnold Arboretum was pure magic. As a photographer, I always get excited when clients request a cherry blossom session. These delicate, fleeting flowers are a true delight to capture, but they can be very hard to predict! They can bloom as early as the end of March or as late as mid-April. Once they are fully in bloom, the blossoms only last a couple of weeks. Flexibility in the date of a session is key when planning a cherry blossom session. 

I knew the Arnold Arboretum would be the perfect backdrop for my dear friends Elena and Scott’s couples session. When the day of the session arrived, the skies were grey and overcast – not exactly the golden hour glow I had originally envisioned. But as I started capturing Elena and Scott amidst the sea of pink blossoms, I realized the cool, diffused light was actually a perfect fit for their alternative, artistic aesthetic. The overcast conditions made the vibrant flowers stand out even more, creating a dreamy, ethereal atmosphere. I was able to embrace the light and use it to my advantage to capture the couple in a way that felt authentic to their style.

As we explored the park, one particular area caught my eye – a tree in full, glorious bloom, its branches dripping with soft pink petals. I knew this would be the perfect spot to capture the intimate, romantic connection between Elena and Scott. Guiding them to stand beneath the tree, I watched as the gentle breeze caused the blossoms to dance around them, creating a truly enchanting scene. The way the petals framed the couple, enveloping them in a sea of pink, was simply breathtaking.

Photographing my close friends made this session cherry blossom couple session at Arnold Arboretum all the more special and intimate. I’ve known Elena and Scott for years, and it was an honor to be the one to document this magical moment in their lives. These two have such a beautiful, genuine bond, and it shone through in every single frame.
