Beach Wedding Photos at The Beauport

As a Boston wedding photographer, I’ve learned that the best time for taking relaxed wedding portraits is during the sunset. I encourage couples to sneak away to the beach at Beauport Hotel, even if it’s only a few minutes. The beach is so close to the reception, making it easy for my clients to take a few photos. During this time of the day, I’ve found that couples are very relaxed because all the anticipation and stress are over. I’ll set up a few quick photos and then might ask you to take a quick walk for 20-30 yards down the beach. These are always some of the best pictures from the day because of the lighting during golden hour.
