I met Amy and Brett at one of my absolute favorite Maine locations—the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens —for a gorgeous maternity session. About an hours drive from Portland, the garden sits nestled outside of downtown Boothbay Harbor and is a sight to behold in all of Maine’s seasons. I’ve photographed many weddings and families at the gardens over the years, and even bring my own family in the summer and winter. It’s definitely worth a visit if you are in Maine. Baby bumps and flowers are a perfect match.

Amy and Brett were in luck, Roses, Peonies and Alliums were blooming and the ocean fog was rolling in around us. We wandered the grounds together and finished out in Downtown Boothbay, by the sea. Congratulations to Amy and Brett as they welcome their little one into the world, they are, without a doubt, loved beyond all measure.

If you are planning on a Maine visit for your maternity or family photos, I would love to chat with you and recommend some amazing locations. Even as the days grow shorter and the crisp of fall settles, Maine is blessed with natural beauty—let’s make unforgettable memories together, I would love to be your Maine maternity photographer.
