Sopranos-themed Engagement

A Love Story in East Boston: Morgan and Anthony's Sopranos-themed Engagement Shoot
Every love story is unique, and so are the dreams that couples have for their special moments. When a bride-to-be reached out with an idea that her family thought was crazy, little did they know that it would turn into a breathtaking engagement shoot.
Love stories often unfold in the most unexpected and charming places, and for Morgan and Anthony, this couldn’t be more true. In the heart of East Boston, at Anthony's Nonna's house, the couple captured the essence of their love surrounded by family, tradition, cherished relics, and the ambiance of a classic Italian candlelit dinner.
Mixed Media Magic
With sampled audio and music straight from the iconic series, we made sure to turn Morgan and Anthony’s love story into a tailor-made experience. To hand craft this soundtrack, we sampled Frank Sinatra’s, “A Very Good Year,” which played in Season Two of the hit show. The strings from this track laid the foundation for a score full of ambient tones, gospel harmonies and groovy drums.
To bring the narrative all together, we topped the sound scape off with audio taken from Season Four, when Christopher and Adriana discuss eloping at City Hall.
The result? A blended vibe of Italian tradition, extravagance, romance and style.
Morgan's desire to capture all the imperfections, from spilled wine on the countertop to the nuances of a family kitchen in action, brought an unfiltered charm to the photos.
Nonna, holding generations of memories and embodying the warmth of family ties, watched carefully from the dining room and even took a moment to remind everyone to stir the sauce and test the pasta – a timeless tradition that added authenticity to the shoot.
