Robert + Olivia | Bar Harbor, Maine Elopement Photographer

What a beautiful day on the coast of Maine for Rob and Olivia’s wedding day! These intimate ceremonies have been such a refreshing thing to capture during a year that has been so tumultuous. They’ve been renting the same little cabin in Trenton for years, and decided that is where they would tie the knot! It was such a pleasure to work with these two and I hope you enjoy seeing some of what we capture!

Rob and Libby may have bitter rivals for their favorite baseball teams, but thankfully it doesn’t get in the way of their union. This isn’t the first time I’ve had couples who are separately fans of the Red Sox and Yankees!

I love how Rob was spreading rose petals for his bride before the ceremony!

The only attendant on their wedding day was Libby’s mother! Her and I were the official witnesses!

The property was so beautiful, so it wasn’t hard to find great spots for photos without going anywhere!

Libby had a little fun during her bridal portraits!

Rob and Libby had their bulldogs with them as well, though I think they were far more interested in eating me than they were in taking photos haha!

Once we finished at the cottage, it was time to head up Cadillac Mountain around sunset for some final portraits. What amazing views we had!

Nick and Jess | Bethel Inn Wedding | Bethel, ME Wedding Photographer

With the world as it is these days, it’s so refreshing to get out there and celebrate joy! I had been looking forward to capturing Nick and Jessica’s wedding for a while, and it did not disappoint! It couldn’t have ended up being a much more perfect day in Bethel for them to get married. While it may have been a little warm outside, the skies were blue, and the clouds were plentiful! These two are such a great match, and I loved seeing some of the small moments between them with big smiles. I hope you love reliving the day, as much as I enjoyed capturing it!
