Boston College Engagement Session | Lauren & Reilly

There’s something special about returning to a place filled with meaningful memories—and for Lauren & Reilly, that place was Boston College. From the iconic Gothic architecture and lush green spaces to the stunning stained-glass windows inside the library, this campus was the perfect location for a session full of love, laughter, and personality.

If you’re considering a Boston engagement session that blends elegance, fun, and a touch of nostalgia, this Boston College engagement shoot is full of inspiration.


Why Boston College Was the Perfect Engagement Session Location

Lauren & Reilly met in college (after Lauren accidentally cut Reilly in line at a bar—true love starts in unexpected places!). Their story is full of little serendipitous moments and “invisible string” connections, making BC’s campus the perfect setting to capture this next chapter.

The architecture, soft greenery, and natural light gave us plenty of stunning backdrops—from classic stone archways and ivy-covered walls, to quiet, romantic moments outside the BC library.


A Session Full of Personality (and Ice Cream)

Lauren & Reilly brought all the fun and personality to their session—exactly what an engagement shoot should feel like. Their vibe? Playful, foodie, and completely in sync.

We mixed in two outfits—one dressy and one casual—for variety and comfort. We even incorporated champagne and ice cream (yes, ice cream!) to reflect their shared love of food, fun, and keeping things lighthearted. These two are the kind of couple who dance in the kitchen every night and split dessert on every date—capturing that in their photos made it feel authentic and uniquely theirs.


Engagement Session Highlights

  • Strolling hand-in-hand through BC’s historic stone walkways
  • Laughing under arches and cozying up on the steps of Gasson Hall
  • Casual outfit photos that showed off their relaxed, fun energy
  • Ice cream date vibes that captured their playful connection
