HoneyBook I would be completely lost in my business without HoneyBook. The platform has been my go-to for client management, contracts, payments and SO much more for over 6 years now! I highly recommend it for anyone, no matter where you are in your business. Setting up workflows and systems can save hours of time […]

This styled shoot feels like it has been forever in the making! When I first talked to Tammy at Harmony Hill Farm in Warren, all I had was an idea and a Pinterest board of inspiration. Since then, it evolved into a wonderful collaboration and help from great vendors that made it come to life! […]

Choosing the prime location is an important aspect of any engagement session! Whether you’re a bride/groom-to-be or a photographer, finding the right location can be a challenge. I put together a list of some of my favorite places in the midcoast Maine region. If you are new to the area or looking for some fresh […]

As soon as we got started shooting, I knew this was going to be a fun session! Kay and Ashley are both so full of love and laughter, and it shows in their photographs! The biggest thing I tell my couples is to be themselves and these two nailed it the moment I started pressing […]

David and Elaine met me at Bug Light Park in South Portland on a freezing cold day in January. One of the biggest downfalls of living in Maine are the winters. If you are into skiing or snowmobiling, it’s great. If you’re a photographer, things can be a little rough! With layers on layers on layers, […]

The first few days after getting engaged feel like a whirlwind.  It is all excitement, happiness, and responding to Facebook messages. Then the realization sets in that its time to PLAN A WEDDING! I headed to Facebook and asked the MGP family what the best wedding advice they had gotten and was completely overwhelmed with […]

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 […]

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. We were married on a frigid (-5° and she was still game to […]
