Your Maine Wedding & Elopement Photographer

I’m Ned— a soulful creative, hopeless romantic & southern Maine based photographer

I believe photography is more than just preserving a moment — it's about honoring the depth, emotion, and story that lives within it.

I photograph weddings of all kinds—from elegant coastal celebrations to quiet, intimate elopements—with an eye for emotion, beauty, and honest storytelling. My approach is calm, documentary, and grounded in years of experience capturing the real moments that matter.

Based in southern Maine, I work across the state to document love in its many forms—on sailboats, in gardens, by the sea. Whether you’re planning a refined gathering or a deeply personal ceremony, I’m here to create images that feel true, timeless, and full of heart.

You want memories that reflect the emotions, connections, and the unique energy of your love story and celebration, and I’ll help you document those. These fleeting moments are what I aim to capture—authentically, beautifully, and without interruption.

With years of experience photographing weddings, elopements, and intimate celebrations, I bring a steady, calm, and caring presence. Photography is more than showing up with a camera. I’ll help you plan ahead, offer tips, and create a timeline that fits your day — so when it arrives, you can be fully present while I capture the moments that matter. Let’s create something beautiful together!

"Couldn't recommend Ned enough! We gave Ned tough task - a very short window for posed pictures and a VERY high bar for luxurious, classic and timeless photos, with the vast majority being live, unposed candids. He nailed it!”
- Mary
“I cannot express in words how amazing Ned is. Ned is very professional, from the first meeting to the final hugs goodbye. He pays attention to details. He communicates very well and made sure we were all set prior to the day. You can tell he is very passionate about his craft. He captures our special day perfectly and we couldn’t be any happier how our photos came out. Thank you so much Ned!!”

“My guests were so pleased with his work, that several of them plan to hire him for special events that they will be hosting. Ned offers "sneak peek" pictures, and oh my gosh, I fell in love with the moments he caught! The clarity, the color, everything was perfect! I felt the moment and love the memories!! I am so beyond pleased to to have his work as part of my memories! Highly recommend!!”

My couples are drawn to natural beauty, quiet moments, and the kind of wedding photography that doesn’t interrupt the day—it honors it. They care less about stiff poses and more about real connection. They want to feel fully present with their people and trust that I’ll capture the laughter, tears, and unscripted in-between moments that matter most.

They choose me because I blend into the background while still being exactly where I need to be. Because I approach every wedding day with care, calm energy, and an artist’s eye for Maine’s landscapes and light. Because I deliver photographs that feel like them—authentic, timeless, and full of heart.
