Meet our friend, Spring Smith of Spring Smith Studios. In this interview, she shares why she loves capturing love stories and how she approaches her work as a wedding photographer in Maine.

L&L: Tell us a little bit about you & your business.
I love where I live what what I do. I’m a mother, a wife and a business owner. I grew up in Fryeburg, Maine and am so happy to call it home. My husband, almost two year old daughter and I live bought the house next-door to my childhood home where my parents still live. My photography business is both my passion and my work. I’ve been photographing people for as long as I can remember and spend my high school and collage years in the darkroom.

Weddings are full of love and laughter and who wouldn’t want to spend a work day surround by that? I love what I do and can’t imagine a greater privilege than to document the beginning of your lives as a married couple.

What makes your business different?
You spend a lot of time with your photographer on your wedding day. The more you have in common with them, the more comfortable you are the more real and authentic the images they create will be. I’m a laid back, fun loving person. I tend to help bring stress levels down and make you feel comfortable by cracking a joke or two. I’m not a photographer that poses you in a bunch of stiff robotic poses to capture the perfect image. The perfect image in my book is one that looks and feels like you at your best so I have a slightly more hands off approach to posing and couples portraits and it leads to a more romantic, soft style of portraiture.

I promise you that I will make you feel at ease even with a camera pointed at you. I will ensure that we have both enough time for the image you want and the list your mom’s have. You will have an album of images that you absolutely love and will want to share with friends, family and the generations yet to come.

Best place that people can find you (to contact you)?

There’s nothing quite like a wedding on Martha’s Vineyard. This dreamy celebration captured by Siri Jones Photography is no exception!

Anna and Matt’s celebration kicked off at the bride’s family beach house. The ceremony took place in the backyard with a panoramic view of the island. After some bridal party and family portraits by the water’s edge, the festivities continued to the Winnetu Ocean Resort in Edgartown. We love how Anna and Matt’s day captured the timeless, yet laid back essence of their island destination.

Boston love birds Sara and Charlie welcomed guests to celebrate their wedding day in Union, ME.

Sara and Charlie tied the knot on the groom’s family property on Seven Tree Pond. After the ceremony overlooking the water, guests enjoyed cocktails on the lawn. We love how the couple embraced the “camp” feel of their destination. Inside the tent, DIY floral arrangements on tree trunk pedestals complemented checked blue and white linens paired with simple place settings. After dinner guests enjoyed an impressive spread of sweets and danced the night away. Thank you Emily MacCabe Photography for sharing this wonderful day!
