Watching Shane and Kelly during their maternity session was the absolute sweetest. I was just meeting them for the first time but I felt like I had known them forever (plus Kelly’s personality and humor were SO relatable to mine, I couldn’t help but laugh at some of our messages back and forth). They were so comfortable together, laughing at themselves and embracing every intimate moment, even when it started to rain. There’s no doubt that they are going to be amazing, loving parents.

What do you do when you are visiting Maine in the winter? Go on a snowy adventure! I had such a fun afternoon catching up with old friends while watching their little boy enjoy the magic of a winter wonderland.

I’ve known Nicole for almost ten years now - we met way back when I started working for her at major retail company. Fast-forward to today, she is happily married to her husband John and enjoying life with their pup in Maine, both are passionate about their work and involvement in the community. When I found out they were expecting I was beyond thrilled..

I’ve been waiting for this engagement session for a while and was so excited when I finally heard the news. Dom and Kyra are so quirky, funny, and endearing with eachother, it’s hard not to have fun when you are with them. Underneath all the humor and laughs, it’s obvious how much they truly care about the other. I can’t wait to watch them say I do on their wedding day as they encapsulate what it means to marry your best friend. Until then, here are some of my favorites from their engagement shoot at Portland Headlight in Cape Elizabeth, Maine..

After taking Nate & Kate’s engagement pictures the previous year during the fall, I had been waiting [not so] patiently for their wedding. Once meeting them, I was so captivated by how candid and comfortable they were with each other. I know I would be capturing the real them — their raw, authentic selves — and it was beautiful! Their wedding took place at Sunday River in Maine during the peak foliage season. Every detail from that day was uniquely special, from the dress and bouquet to the guests and reception, moments that will last forever.
