Ariana & Josh's session is what coastal engagement dreams are made of. From the classic formal blue and white attire, to the golden sunset, and puppy snuggles. I don't think it could get anymore perfect. Here is what Ariana said about our session, "Wow, where to begin. I will start off by saying that Amanda is an amazing photographer and person. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and they speak for themselves. She took my engagement photos and I am speechless. Amanda is so f

I want to start by saying that I hope everyone is feeling healthy, mentally & physically, during this season. Practicing social distancing is not easy and while we all might have a list of 'things to do when life slows down', sometimes all you want to do is curl up in bed with a good book or binge-worthy series. Also... how about these 2015 throwbacks of me and Cole during an in-home session (in our first apartment) shot by our friend Mackenzie Lamoureux. So just in case some

The next step after booking your family session is finding a location that is the best fit for you. There are so many options out there, and luckily we live in a beautiful state that has so much to offer! I love that many locations my clients choose often offer more than one background (ex: beach & field) but when narrowing down ideas I like to get a feel of my client's overall vision for their session. Pinterset can be a bit overwhelming and often unrealistic, so I put toget

Valentines Day is here! This day is so much more than just cheezy cards, chocolates, and colorful blooms. It celebrates the love, friendship, and romance of couples around the world. Todays post is inspired by all of it. Weddings, engagements, and boudoir shoots that all celebrate LOVE. #valentinesday #valentinesdayinspired #pinkweddingflowers #redweddingflowers #loveinspired #valentinesdaywedding #valentinesdayengagement #mainephotographer #maineweddingphotographer #maineeng

When you're planning your wedding one of the things to check off your list is a honeymoon destination. But if you're getting in married in Maine, why would you want to leave? Not only is it the most beautiful time of year in Maine but the idea of sitting in a car, airport, and packing right after our big wedding weekend was unappealing to me. I loved the idea of staying close to home so we could still getaway and relax but just be a quick drive to and from. We have so many in

Tori and I grew up in the same small town and I had the chance to photograph her & Tanner quite a few years ago when they were just dating. Now, I get the opportunity to document their engagement AND upcoming wedding in June. It's such a beautiful blessing to document my couples' love stories throughout the years and see how they grow. When I left my house for Tori & Tanner's shoot, it was pouring rain. But that didn't stop them! As soon as I arrived to Kettle Cove the sprink

One of the amazing aspects of our job is that we get the chance to meet some of the most incredible people. Lexi & Randy are truly special humans. If we could relive this day all over again, we would. Truly such a fun, loving, and kind couple with family and friends that make you feel right at home. Today on the blog, I'm recapping their wedding day, even though I've already shared so much on social because I'm truly obsessed. From a barefoot bride on the beach, an epic dance

2019. You were freaking magic. This year we had the opportunity to capture so many love stories and growing families. Reflecting on this past year we're filled with gratitude for all of our clients for trusting us in documenting such a precious time in your life. It is an absolute honor & joy to share these moments with you. Here's just a small peek into the many moments from 2019. #mainephotographer #maineweddingphotographer #mainefamilyphotographer #mainematernityphotograph

Where do I even begin when sharing the details of Abby & Matt's wedding celebration? I think I have to start with the fact that these two know how to have FUN. From the crazy dances (and there were many), heartfelt and hilarious speeches, to the absolute genuine love these two have for each other and their family and friends - this entire day was truly amazing and an absolute privilege to be a part of. I also can't forget to mention the beautiful barefoot bride. She was absol

I have this belief that everything happens for a reason. In my last semester of college I started an internship at Maine Medical Partners to start their social media presence. Corporate (never mind healthcare) was totally out of my comfort zone as I was used to a creative small business space. But I took on the internship which led to a part-time job out of college. I could never see my future there, but it felt right at the time. It wasn't until my Dad passed away that I rea
