Island Country Club Wedding – Marcie & Andrew | Stonington Maine

Marcie & Andrew’s wedding at the Island Country Club in Stonington, Maine was a bit of a special one since Andrew is my brother in law! They chose an intimate wedding day to blend their family together with their children, surrounded by close family and friends. Stonington Country Club is situated on the island of Stonington in Maine.

After the ceremony and reception, they wanted some beach photos. I was very pleasantly surprised when we arrived, and the beach was surrounded by what looked like an enchanted forest. It’s what fairy tale photos are made of! The light was fading fast, but we managed to get some amazing and fantastical portraits 🙂

If you’re looking for a beautiful vacation spot to get away from it all, this would be it, and not just because of the complete lack of cell service 😉 I’d love to visit again when I’m not on the job!

Erin & Jerry – Stone Mountain Arts Center Wedding – Brownfield, Maine

Erin & Jerry were my first referral clients after I rebooted my business this year. Their wedding seemed so far away in January, but August 30th seemed to come and go so fast! I had made a trip up to their venue at the Stone Mountain Arts Center in May since I knew I’d need to see it beforehand. It also made it easier to meet with them and the wedding coordinator to finalize everything. I also got lucky and was able to crash at my uncle’s ski cabin near North Conway for the weekend of the wedding. It made travel a lot easier to go up the night before and not have to drive 3 hours home the night of!

Their wedding day was beautiful. The weather was perfect. Erin & Jerry decided to do a first look so they could get some of their family formals out of the way before the wedding. I love first looks, and my favorite part is the Groom’s reaction to seeing his bride for the first time 🙂 It was one of the most easy and relaxed weddings I’ve ever shot too! We got so much done before, that we were able to just do some bridal photos after the ceremony. Then Erin & Jerry were announced into their cocktail hour to enjoy some food and mingle with their guests before dinner. The food was amazing, a huge buffet, and some of the best wedding food I’ve ever had! I will say one of the perks of the job is getting to eat lots of awesome food and cake!
