As a wedding photographer, one of my favorite parts of the job is getting to know couples during their engagement sessions. Kelsey and Logan’s engagement session in Downtown Portsmouth, New Hampshire, was nothing short of magical. This historic seaside town provided the perfect backdrop, with its charming streets, iconic landmarks, and lush gardens.

We started our session by exploring the picturesque gardens at Prescott Park. The vibrant flowers, winding paths, and that stunning tree in the middle of the park created a dreamy, romantic atmosphere. Kelsey’s soft blue dress perfectly complemented the lush greenery, while Logan’s relaxed yet polished style added to the timeless look of their photos. Their connection was so genuine and effortless, which made capturing their love a true joy.

Next, we wandered down to the waterfront near the Memorial Bridge, an iconic feature of Portsmouth. This spot offered not only beautiful views of the harbor but also a unique touch with the love lock fence, where couples add locks as a symbol of their commitment. Kelsey and Logan looked so in love as they stood by the fence, with the bridge towering behind them.

One of the highlights of their session was a creative touch that Kelsey brought along – a custom-labeled bottle of champagne featuring their wedding date, April 26, 2025, and their names. It was such a fun and unique way to incorporate their wedding save-the-date into the session. The golden label popped beautifully against the lush surroundings, and the celebratory vibe added an extra layer of excitement to the photos.

I love how Downtown Portsmouth offers a variety of stunning locations within a short walking distance. From gardens to waterfront views and even quaint streets lined with historic architecture, this area truly has it all for an engagement session. It’s always a pleasure photographing couples here, and Kelsey and Logan’s session was no exception.

I can’t wait for their wedding day at Owl’s Nest Resort in Thornton, New Hampshire, this coming April. Their love story, creativity, and joy have already made such an impression, and I know their wedding will be just as beautiful and memorable as their engagement session.


If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who captures genuine moments in stunning locations like Portsmouth and beyond, I’d be honored to document your love story!
