Boothbay Harbor Maine Wedding: Annie and Josh

Annie and Josh came all the way from Arizona to say “I do” in the great state of Maine. After meeting them earlier that week for their engagement session, we returned to the Mid-Coast for their July 4th wedding! After a Catholic ceremony across town, they celebrated in style at the Newagen Seaside Inn, arriving via Lobster Boat! Josh’s dad is in a band, and they performed for part of the reception. You should have seen the room when he sang and original song to Annie and Josh…. not a dry eye in the house. This was one fourth of July we won’t soon forget!

Annie and Josh’s Pemaquid Point Maine Engagement Session

Annie and Josh came to Maine for their July 4th Wedding (coming soon). While they were here, we were able to schedule their engagement session too, just a few days prior to the wedding day! We met them in Damariscotta Maine and then headed down to Pemaquid Point. Seeing that they live in Arizona, we had some chilly weather to share with them up here. I was impressed at just how New England-y Annie looked in her nautical striped skirt! Impressive. The views and light at Pemaquid Point were more than we could have asked for. All in all is was a pretty fun way to spend our evening.

Liz and Chip’s Orland Maine Wedding

Liz and Chip held their wedding at Liz’s Grandparents lake house in Orland Maine, coincidentally right across the lake from where Kate and Emily had their wedding this past July. It is an amazing property complete with the most epic blueberry field, just right for taking photos of this lovely couple and their friends. I could not, and have not, gotten over Liz’s incredibly styling. Please take note of her dress and jewelry. It was timeless, classy, and SO MUCH FUN to photograph. Her mother is a photographer so Liz was completely comfortable in front of the camera too, which made things pretty simple when it came to portraits. We were definitely not complaining.

The ceremony was held in a 200 year old church and the guests were shuttled from the ceremony to the reception via yellow school busses. They had the cocktail hour in the backyard with their family pets roaming around and mingling with the guests. After the cocktail hour everyone moved further into the woods to a tented reception where the champagne and dancing both flowed without end. It was a blast.

Kate and Michael’s Southport Maine Wedding

Kate and Michael’s wedding day took place at the Newagen Seaside Inn in gorgeous Mid-Coast Maine, close to Boothbay Harbor. It is actually one of Dan and my favorite spots in Maine! The last time we photographed a wedding in this area it was a hurricane so the weather on this day was really welcomed by us. There were a lot of fun details to this day too, like the fact that they shipped in their favorite ice cream all the way from Ohio and the awesome cocktails they made to pay homage to where the live, Manhattan! My favorite detail of all was her dress. She wore a short dancing dress and then added a skirt over it that was made from her mothers wedding dress. It was super unique and even more lovely.

They did their first look on the rocks overlooking the water, which was obviously stunning. The ceremony overlooked one of our favorite Maine vistas, that we have visited personally more than once. The details we well thought out and the food was out of this world. After dinner and toasts, the dance party began. I loved how the Newagen Seaside Inn up-lit the room and made the photos ever cooler. We love lights like that! Take note. Enjoy this cute Mid-Coast Maine wedding ok?

Emily and Jason’s Castine Maine Wedding

We love this family. Emily is part of the famous Russell family, through which we have met and photographed some of the most fun couples there are! Remember Lyndsey and Ben? Hillary and Matt? Emily and Kate? All from this family and friends. Emily and Jason’s wedding took place right at the edge of a cliff on the gorgeous coast of Maine. There was a refreshing ocean breeze blowing as she walked down the aisle to marry her (now) husband. It was such a heartfelt ceremony, with many stories, prayers, and reading, including a thank you from the couple themselves. Some of the lines in their vows were so romantic I definitely shed a tear, to happy to see them become husband and wife. They need to be married. All is right with the world now that they are .

After such a romantic ceremony, all that was left to do was party! All their guests headed up to The Manor Inn and we took a few photos before heading up ourselves. Toasts, special dances, cake cutting, and then a dance party not to forget!
