Northeast Harbor Maine Wedding: Hayley and Ryan

We have always said, and we will keep on saying it… Intimate Weddings are beyond wonderful. We. Love. Them! Hayley and Ryan’s tiny wedding in Northeast Harbor was just that. We met them at the Asticou Inn and then everyone headed up to the terraced gardens for the ceremony. It was so sweet to see how joyful the whole event was. Everyone was smiling and laughing and just thrilled that these two were getting married. Even their dog was over the moon.

After the ceremony, we walked through the gardens for portraits and made our way to cocktail hour and dinner. Before we knew it, the sun was setting and grabbed a few more portraits of them before the fire was lit for smores. A wonderful wedding indeed.

Rye New Hampshire Wedding: Mariah and Roger

We met Mariah and Roger last year for their engagement session, and have been looking forward to their wedding even more than usual since then. (Click that link and go and see the cuteness).

It was a hot hot day here in New England. The sun we beating down and giving us intense light and everyone’s skin was “glistening.” Im not sure if the couple of photos we got of Roger crying were tears or sweat but well just go ahead and say tears ok? In spite of the heat, everyone was happy happy joy joy all day! We loved being around these humans and their friends.

The toasts were all hilarious. The dancing was fresh. The sunset was bangin. All in all, a wonderful day to be a wedding photographer.

North Haven Island Maine Wedding: Liv and Cole

I have to say, a North Haven Wedding is always going to be special. Perhaps its the challenge of having a wedding there in the first place. Perhaps it’s the ferry ride, marking a difference between mainland and island. Perhaps is the people who live on the island. Perhaps it’s just that magic North Haven something… whatever it is… it’s real.

Liv and Cole decided to invest the time and effort and made their wedding happen on this dreamy island and we are so so happy we were there. The boys started the day with a swim, while the bride’s crew hung out in a CLASSIC Maine cabin. Liv got ready outside in the sunshine and then took a quick wade in the ocean before heading over to Turner Farm to meet Cole for their first look.

The sky opened up with a squall right before the ceremony, having us all watching the radar to see how long we needed to wait before we could have the ceremony. I love it when weddings are chill enough that we can wait it out. The ceremony was blessed with amazing skies behind thanks to the storm. With a lot of cows present along with the guests, we all watched these two become husband and wife!

Moran Estates Wedding: Angela and Jack

Jack and Angela are one of a kind! I hope you can see this in these images. Angela made her own wedding dress AND Jack’s eye patch. They ladies carried floral HOOPS instead of bouquets. They had donuts instead of wedding cake. Are you getting the idea here?

It was a hot hot day but there was plenty of shade and lots of cocktails at the ready for the guests. They shared a heartfelt and fun ceremony and before you knew it… totally married. They processed to the bar and the afternoon began. Since it was a mid-day wedding, they were done by 5:00 and that’s when we actually did their portraits, AFTER the wedding. Angela and Jack are nothing if not unconventional. High five to that.

Bar Harbor Wedding: Jo and Carl

Some weddings stick with you and Jo and Carl’s Bar Harbor wedding is one of them! It was just such a beautiful pairing between rustic Maine nature and glamorous vibes. We actually started the day with a hike up to the top of North Bubble in Acadia. There Jo and Carl had their first look. It was a dream come true for Carl so it had to be done just that way. I’m so glad we did.

After the EPIC first look, we went to a few other places along the Park Loop Rd for more photos, then headed back to the Bar Harbor Club for the wedding. Their vows were both so thoughtfully written. It helped me see into their relationship a little more. They got me stoked for their marriage almost as much as their friends and family I betcha!

The reception was beautifully designed and set the scene for touching toasts, sweet first dances, and a rocking party. Jo even changed into a red party dress to pay homage to her Chinese heritage and maybe even being a little good luck… not like they need it though.
