My Landscape {Maine Lifestyle Photographer}

Posted on January 19, 2010

This morning’s musings are inspired by this post.

Where do I go when I need to connect? When I need to feel complete and at home? With myself. With my life.

I don’t go far. In the past I have wandered here and there, searching, trying to find that comfy spot on this planet I can feel good about calling home. Well, I arrived 25 years ago. I left a couple of times, but I always came back.

I was born in the Pacific Northwest but I now live in the Northeast. The salty air from the ocean and the scented pines from the forests always soothe my soul. Always stir fond memories.

Fifteen minutes from my home, when I’m in need of ocean sounds and smells, I go here.

But mostly I’m content being in my own back yard with my animals. I’m on vacation year round and it only costs me a barn full of hay and grain, some good dog treats, chicken scratch and a willingness to be.

Mike & Beth – A Wedding at Pemaquid Point

Posted on September 27, 2009

I had the honor and pleasure of photographing Mike and Beth’s wedding in one of the most gorgeous places in Maine – the Pemaquid Lighthouse.  There couldn’t have been a more beautiful day.  Clear blue sky, soft breezes and a gathering of such lovely people.  I loved the simple yet elegant details that were carefully chosen to mark this special day.  Beth is an artist and all the pottery vases were made by her.  The rehearsal dinner tables were dressed in Vintage table clothes Beth collected over the years, and all the flowers were hand picked from her parents gardens.  I had such a great time documenting their day, and so without further ado, please enjoy the following sneak peak of their amazing story.

The location, as I said, was divine.

Waiting for his bride.

The Procession.

Such emotion goes hand in hand as two people join lives.  So beautiful . . .

Mike’s first look at his beautiful bride as she walks towards him.

I just love this moment between Beth and her parents.

Tender Moments . . .

“Isn’t she lovely, isn’t she beautiful . . .”

I promised Beth if she layed on her belly on this huge rock that the result would be a wonderful picture.  Of course, it helped to have such a beautiful subject!
