Destination weddings are becoming more of a common trend than in years past.  Offering the bride and groom endless amounts of options that they may not normally have back home.  Shooting a day-after photography session is one of our favorite destination wedding options for the newly married couple!  This past July we photographed Alana & Evin’s beautiful destination wedding overlooking the Atlantic ocean in Searsport, Maine & we followed it with a  day-after session the next day!  As Southeastern Maine has one of the most beautiful New England coastlines to photograph with several historic locations throughout the region.  We knew Alana & Evin were going to have an amazing day.

The first stop for our amazing day was the historic Nubble Lighthouse in York, Maine.  It doesn’t take long to understand why this is the most photographed lighthouse on the east coast.  We were just able to get a short shoot in before the heavy crowds took over for the day.

 The historic 1825 Wedding Cake House located in Kennebunk.  Many thanks to Mr. James Barker (James Hunt Barker Gallery’s) for allowing us to photograph his beautiful property.

How do you stop a bride from going into the ocean with her wedding dress?  You don’t!  We ended our amazing day at Kennebunk Beachs (Gooch’s Beach) with the historic Colony Hotel in the background.

Alana & Evin were so much fun to photograph and we hope you enjoyed this short preview into their amazing day.  To preview Alana & Evin’s Searsport wedding click here!

We were in beautiful sunny Miami this past week to photograph Farrah and Ali’s engagement at the historic Vizcaya Museum and Gardens.  Cynthia and I had so much fun photographing them throughout the gardens and continued their incredible session at South Pointe Park.  We can’t wait to come back to Miami next month for their 5-day wedding celebration!

I was getting ready to take a break from the long morning of shooting and this shot just presented it’s self.  Fresh out of high school… a young Michelle Wie passes in front of the historic Pine Needles hotel in Southern Pines.  This is my second image in my golf series reflecting back on amazing images I’ve captured during the US Women’s Open.

We have been so blessed with amazing couples this year and these two weren’t any different.  Our second half of our prenuptial session with Ali and Anila was just amazing as the first.  Enjoy! 

Just an amazing couple to work with and we can’t wait to kick off the beginning of their four days of festivities in Atlanta later this month!

We’ve been dancing around the rain for the past three weeks and I was sure our luck was going to run out on this stunning destination location for their prenuptial session.  As our morning start time approached… the clouds lighten up and it turned out to be a beautiful day.  Ali and Anila were amazing all day and a real pleasure to work with. 

Things might be a little interesting come football season this Fall.

You couldn’t have selected a better location for this session.  Hope you enjoyed the preview [first half] and I’ll have your gallerys up shortly!
