Anyone from Maine understands just how brutal and unpredictable our winters can be. Niki, Brady and I were forced to reschedule not once, but TWICE because, lets face it, winter can suck sometimes. Luckily, we ended up with the most gorgeous 40 degree day and the wait was totally worth it! Not only did they […]

Yes, you read that title right… We all wake up and put our pants on one leg at a time, but do you know how to dress to make your photographer love you? The truth is, a great photographer can make any outfit work in an image. You could even show up in a chicken […]

We absolutely loved working with Melissa from beginning to end! She was very professional and made us feel so at ease during our engagement photos and was fantastic during our wedding capturing every detail. We are in LOVE with the final results.

I had such a fun evening with these two for their senior session! Seamus and Brinley are so cute, and totally nailed everything I asked them to do. I love seeing people loosen up in front of the camera and really start to enjoy the experience! We explored a little island in South Bristol with […]
