Celebrated the sweetest little elopement last weekend with Kendyll + Jake and their families. From a sun-kissed ceremony with light streaming into the barn by day, to a cozy wine cellar reception by night.

It’s good to be back. 🥂

As an artful documentary wedding photographer, I find inspiration in…

Light. The way it dances around a scene and kisses its subjects. The interesting shadows and depth it creates. Streaming through a window like a natural spotlight, or peeking through the leaves of the trees. Light, I’m convinced, is pure magic.

Landscape. I am creatively inspired by Maine’s rugged shorelines, full of drama and whimsy. It is always my intention to highlight the beauty of landscape and setting in my photographs — where the place and people shine in near equal measure.

Human Connection. I delight in it. A brilliant belly laugh, whose joy couldn’t be contained. The giving and receiving of a tender embrace. There are so many forms of love language present on a wedding day, with such heightened emotions being experienced. How special to witness and safekeep.

Art, Poetry, Cinematography. Since becoming a photographer, I look at films a different way — the simplicity of a well-composed shot, the color editing that informs the tone and feeling of a scene. I find myself increasingly drawn to cinematic light and the richness it adds to a photograph. As a writer and admirer of poetry, I often revisit the works of the Transcendentalist poets, and think of my own craft as a form of visual poetry. And, of course, I draw inspiration from artists across a multitude of other mediums — painters, musicians, artisans, and storytellers.

Your Story. A wedding celebration is a chapter of a larger love story. I believe each photograph is a narrative of its own, and each collection of photographs is a rich tapestry of your story, and the stories of those intertwined with your own. My client experience is a deeply personal one, as I am invited into the fold to hold space for your story, and document this season of your lives with crafted care.

I hope what you see here may inspire you, too.

Oh, hello!

I have been rather quiet on here as of late, working on my business, working on myself. Learning, growing, and refining my craft and brand through mentorship. Restructuring photography offerings and redesigning web pages. Fine-tuning for the season ahead – which kicks off with a lovely little elopement next month. Wedding planning for our own event this autumn.

It’s funny how the off-season, though quite different in terms of schedule, can still sneak on by. I always feel a little stagnant energy by this point in late winter, and I’m looking forward to the shift of spring and a renewed focus for the incredible events ahead this year (on both sides of the wedding planning spectrum!).

As always, thank you for being here and resonating with what I do. 🤍

2025 in B+W ✨

I’ve been a little quiet on here since wrapping my season, but as of this week, all 2025 galleries have been sent to their loving homes!

What a year it was. I announced the launch of this little business back in 2018, on January 1st, and these 8 years have flown by.

In 2025, I photographed 14 full-sized wedding celebrations, primarily in Maine (I tend to stay in my beloved home state for my work, and that is by design). I got the chance to explore a great number of midcoast and downeast venues and locations — a goal of mine since moving to the midcoast from Southern Maine a couple of years ago. My work was featured in, and on the cover of, a beautiful new Maine magazine. I spoke about business and weddings on a friend’s podcast a couple of times. The year was a close near-tie for my most profitable year in business yet.

Personally, I traveled out west, enjoyed a lot of simple and sweet moments at home and in our gardens, and explored more of our favorite coastal towns and nearby islands. This wedding photog got engaged herself (more on that later), and ended the year in a flurry of wedding planning wonder.

2025, you were good to me. Thrilled to see where 2026 takes this business owner and bride-to-be. 🤍

When Jen and Dan first shared their wedding dreams with me, they said, “We have always loved weddings that feel like we’re guests at someone’s home, whatever that may mean to them.”

Laudholm was the perfect home for their wedding. Jen grew up in this coastal town, and her mother has volunteered for and planted some of their gardens. It was also a place her grandmother chose to spend time during her last few months of life.

Celebrating here felt like coming home for these two, and sharing in that place with all the cozy, autumnal vibes and stunning light that worked its magic all day long.

Meg + Will at .maine on one of those final, fleeting days of September summer. Warm light, delicious plates, and an evening chill to the air that enveloped us on the decks and made the night that much more cozy. How lucky am I to spend my weekends in such beautiful places with the kindest people.

All the romantic garden party vibes for Sallie + Nate at . Surrounded by exquisite hydrangeas, fields of lavender, and so many beautiful thoughtful touches that made the day theirs. Including the sweetest music tribute from Nate to his bride, as he stepped in with a bluegrass group to strum and sing to everyone’s delight.
