MAINE WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHERS
PHOTOS YOU CAN FEEL
AWARD WINNING MAINE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
For 18 years we have photographed hundreds of weddings and elopements throughout Maine and beyond. Our style mixes photojournalism with fine art: capturing authentic moments, details and portraits from your wedding day in a creative and documentary way. One of our greatest strengths is bringing out the personality of each unique wedding through our work with photographs that make you feel like you were in that moment.
HOW WE WORK
We work as a team to document your day as it naturally unfolds: no awkward posing or forced smiles. We are happy, laid back and have been described by so many clients as a calming presence on the wedding day. We love to photograph all the parts of the day to tell the story: the little details that only we would notice, interesting light, expressions, the real moments and the in between moments, environment and landscape and everything in between. We are especially interested in documenting the people you care about who are there celebrating with you that day. When you look back at our photos we want you to remember how it all felt, exactly how it looked and happened.
Candid. Honest. Evocative. Timeless.
“Jessica and Lyle are that perfect blend of remarkably talented and exceedingly genuine. Their presence on our wedding day was warm and welcoming. Their work is gorgeous, thoughtful, and emotional. We are grateful every day to have had them capture our wedding; every time we look at our photos, as if by magic we feel instantly transported back. If you are getting married anywhere they can take your photos, you simply must!”
— Samantha & Phil
“These pictures are so incredibly beautiful! You and Lyle have given us such a special way to relive these moments! I am struggling to find the right words to actually explain how my heart feels going through them. I don't think the words actually exist! It is so fun to be able to go through them together--we see something new in each shot every time! We couldn't be more thankful that you and Lyle were able to capture these moments so beautifully. It's absolutely incredible!”

ABOUT US
We met in New York City in 1999 and eloped August 11, 2000 on the top of the World Trade Center in NYC. Our shared love of photography (Jessica's degree is in Photojournalism and Lyle had been shooting film most of his life) was one of the things that drew us to each other when we first met. Interestingly we didn't hire wedding photographers when we got married and just had our family take a few photos (and you can imagine how well those turned out!), which is one of our biggest regrets. We consider it a huge honor to spend one of the happiest days of your life with you and document it for you and your families.
