Moments from Sam & Nate’s perfect wedding day on the coast of Maine 🤍

These two love each other beyond words. You can tell by the the way they look at each other with so much warmth and care. Witnessing this day was a literal dream. One of my favorite moments was when Sam walked down the aisle with her dad, Nate took her hands and kissed the top of them. I think everyone was tearing up then 🥹 As much as they love each other, they are also loved by so many around them.

My other favorite moment was when we were doing some couples photos on the lawn after dinner and Sam heard the band playing a favorite song. She asked if they could run, and off they ran to join the dance floor, while the videographer and I ran to keep up with them 🩷 it was truly one of the best moments. It’s what it’s all about. Your love & your day.

One year until Meredith & Carsten tie the knot! 🥂

I love how this job lets me cross paths with so many incredible people. I actually met Meredith a few years ago when she was a bridesmaid in a wedding I photographed (shoutout Emily & Michael!) and now here we are, celebrating her and Carsten’s engagement!

These photos were so much fun to capture! I can’t wait to celebrate with you both in exactly 365 days! 🤍

The moment I got on the phone with Patrick to talk through his plan, I knew this was going to be a special proposal 🥹

He was proposing to Wendy on an excursion to Cabbage Island in Boothbay Harbor and he’d bought an extra ticket so I could tag along and capture it!

I made the drive up to Boothbay, hopped on the Bennie Alice, and enjoyed the scenic tour along with everyone else. Even snagged a few photos of them on the boat ride over without her noticing!

Once we landed on Cabbage Island, the plan was simple: wait for the dinner bell. I made a few new friends and hung out while Pat and Wendy explored the island.

Then the bell rang. Pat led Wendy to the arbor, got down on one knee, and asked her to spend forever with him. Witnessing that moment and their joy was so much fun! 🥹💍

They celebrated after with a lobster bake, courtesy of the incredible staff at Cabbage Island and a few more photos around the island. Congratulations, Pat & Wendy! 🦞✨ honored to have captured your story!

Oh and to add to the perfect day, Chronicle on WCVB TV (ABC/Hearst) was there too, and interviewed the newly engaged couple! I’ll pop the link in my story so you can watch it! Cabbage Island Clambakes
