Outdoor Wedding

Melissa and Elliot’s Jackson, New Hampshire wedding weekend embodied all of the reasons we LOVE it when we get the opportunity to capture the more complete story that unfolds over the entirety of the celebratory weekend.

We are big believers in telling as complete a wedding story as possible, so we l-o-v-e LOVE it when our couples feel the same way and seek photographers to capture the entirety of their experience. Nat and Justin created such a spectacular weekend for their guests and we were tasked with the dream job of telling that story from beginning to end.

Libby & Steve are no strangers to adventure. Midwesterners, they drove out to Maine for an  Acadia National Park wedding. As their wedding photographers we were thrilled to be included with just twenty other people on a tour of the park that ended with an afternoon ceremony on top of Cadillac Mountain!

Nothing says Seacoast Wedding like a Seacoast Science Center wedding! For Jacqui & Tyler, who work and live in the Seacoast community, this was the perfect place for their day. The Seacoast Science Center in Rye, sits along the very short stretch of the New Hampshire coastline. Nestled among the many beaches, surfing hot spots, and New England coastal communities this venue is a perfect location for an oceanside wedding.

Kayla & Keith knew they wanted a wedding in New Hampshire by a lake and found Lake Shore Village Resort fit their needs in every way. Different from a summer camp wedding, this venue is built for kids at heart only. The cabins are more like homes and the opportunities are abundant. With kayaking, paddle boarding, boating and swimming, Lake Horace is big enough to provide plenty of fun without sacrificing privacy.

Kaitlin & Michael have a streak of adventure and competition in them. When Kait let us know that she was goal setting for Kate & Keith’s best photo of the year, we took her seriously. A Loon Mountain wedding is a fantastic starting point for awesomeness to follow. So we set out with Kait & Mike on a mission to create something epic as their Loon Mountain Wedding Photographers. With these two, that was easy!

It’s no surprise to us that it took a while for Amy & Tom to arrive at their wedding in the White Mountains. They are both the unassuming types. Enjoying the small moments in life and not trying to make anything happen unnaturally. So naturally we were honored when they asked us to be their Waterville Valley wedding photographers.

Tera & Andy traded in the DJ, flowers and bridal party for a hike in the mountains! Their Baxter State Park elopement on one of the trails to Katahdin was every bit as amazing as the most glam wedding. The three mile hike to secluded Chimney Pond was both stunning and life affirming. Their journey, however, started halfway across the country.

Becky & Salt took “rustic farm wedding” to a perfectly literal new level. Throwing an intimate real farm wedding in New Hampshire – one with chickens, sheep, horses and manure.

We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect weekend wedding for Alicia & Graves. Their Boothbay Harbor Wedding Weekend was a mix of casual, adventure and sophistication. There was also a wee bit of nudity. Hats off to the Linekin Bay Resort wedding staff!! The entire facility is amazing and beautiful, and the staff were like old friends.

Adventurous elegance. That’s how we define these two. The kind where one look isn’t enough. But in the end you find yourself completely drawn in by them and experiencing oodles of laughter. A Glen Magna Farms wedding was the perfect combination of sophistication and comfort. And fit them to a T.

Kat & Joe know how to get the adrenaline pumping for their traveling wedding photographers. We are wanderlusters at heart. Bouncing around from one stunning destination to the next. And it’s because of couples like Kat & Joe that we are lucky enough to see new places and explore to our hearts’ content. Their Charleston South Carolina wedding took us on a road trip from New England to Alexandria, VA and on to Charlotte, NC.

This Pennsylvania Lakeside Wedding was no ordinary wedding. It involved Star Wars, Doctor Who, a huge 20-sided kissing die! Emma and Kevin are self described “massive nerds.” Kevin proposed through a game a few days before their annual December trip to his hometown of Denver. Emma waged war against an army of zombies and slayed an evil necromancer who possessed a powerful artifact. That artifact? A family heirloom engagement ring.

At this point, we may need consider endorsing OK Cupid! Amanda & Tara are yet another story of the online dating site and we can personally vouch for the success! After a 2-year engagement and a home they’ve created with their golden retriever, four cats and a chinchilla, their White Mountains Wedding is the cherry on the top. Everything about their Waterville Valley Resort wedding was a reflection of their tremendous combination of two amazing personalities.

Hidden Pond, this southern Maine seacoast wedding venue is definitely one of our favorites. It’s a total hidden gem of a resort in a wooded enclave in Kennebunkport near the ocean. Dana, having grown up in Haverhill is all about the seacoast region. Mike, while from Michigan, takes every opportunity to be in the water, wether in a wet suit or on a boat.

A Grafton Inn wedding sounds like quaint and rustic Vermont just by name (and the fact it’s in Vermont.) Yes, it has a certain level of charm that only a Vermont wedding venue can pull off, with rustic barns, New England farmhouses and empty country roads.

A New England barn wedding venue is far from a fad for Kelly & Joe. Despite their having briefly lived in California, they are New Englanders to the core, and completely in love with all the adventure and activities the area provides. In fact, their love for the outdoors was how they met.

Summer camp weddings have a special place in our hearts, they truly allow for a couple’s creativity and unique personalities to shine. Erik and Juliette took this to a new level with a blend of France meets Boston at Camp Waziyatah in Waterford, Maine.

Camp weddings are hands down some of the most fun weddings we have ever been to (yes, even the ones we are “working”!) Basically, the couple gets to relive their childhood with their closest friends and family for an entire weekend…and no camp counselors! In the case of Samantha’s camp wedding, this was more than true as she had attended New Hampshire’s Camp Takodah as a child.

First impression paints these two as shy, but within moments the laughter is contagious, inside jokes rapidly form and a relationship with them seems as natural as the one they have with each other. Like it was always meant to be. Have you ever seen anything as cute as deez? #insideJoke

While planning her lake wedding, Ashley met us on the phone for a consult during one of our many wedding road trips and I’m pretty sure we forgot to talk about her wedding plans. Instead, we talked about living in Iowa, Field of Dreams, life with a toddler, and by the time we hung up it felt like we had just concluded a best friend catch up session!

Rustic barn wedding? Yes, it’s nothing new, but for Adrienne and Morgan it’s no trend. The couple recently graduated from the University of New Hampshire (UNH). Adrienne grew up in the far northern region of New Hampshire, the type of girl who is more comfortable with a chain saw than a curling iron.

We instantly have a connection with any couple that is passionate about Mount Desert Island (MDI), Acadia National Park, and wanting a Bar Harbor wedding. It’s insanely unlikely that you can visit this magical island without it changing your life.

Rustic weddings are definitely the trend these days, likely sending burlap and Mason jar sales through the roof! Michelle and AJ truly embody the whole concept, being outdoor enthusiasts, environmental stewards and taking casual to a whole new level. Well, they took rustic to a new level for their Tumbledown Farm NH wedding, a truly authentic barn venue complete with Highland cow herds, tractors and a chicken coop larger than some apartments.

A Hidden Pond Wedding is a special event at a special location, a little spa retreat nestled into an otherwise forgotten stretch of flat land on the outskirts of a thriving coastal Maine town. It was just the right mix of intimacy, Maine mystique, and foodie sophistication that Michigan born Kat and Eric needed.

The Hawaiian beach wedding dreams are made of! Kristin and Mike might just be the poster couple of “it was meant to be.” You know, the Harry Met Sally of the non-Hollywood world. Where paths cross so many times you begin to wonder why it took so long to actually happen and rather than hearing “Congratulations!” after announcing an engagement the catching phrase is “it’s about time!”

Planning an Acadia National Park wedding? Or just need travel advice? Ask Rachael and Susan who are passionate visitors of National Parks. They’ve knocked a remarkable number off in their five years together, from East to West and into Canada.

The most challenging posts to compose are those we are the closest to. And this couple has definitely become one which will remain close for years to come. It all started well before their Nantucket lighthouse wedding weekend even began.

A sun-soaked beach house, an antique Cadillac, an intimate gathering of family and friends, this Fuller Gardens wedding could only be made better by a pretty cool couple! Welcome to Gretchen & Dan’s whirlwind wedding planned and executed in only 7 weeks!

Ever heard of Migis Lodge? It’s the go-to spot for a Sebago Lake wedding. What you probably don’t know is that Wind in the Pines also hosts weddings and we think it’s the best kept secret around! Sarah and Colby road tripped it up from DC to take over the camp with family and friends for the weekend.
