Have you ever seen a first look for dad and daughter?
This was a first for me but it was so sweet! I am so glad the bride asked. It was very special!
This moment, less than an hour before he would be walking his little princess down the aisle for her to meet her love, shows how much this awesome Father of the Bride is so proud and and just loves his daughter so much!
It was so special that this special time was set aside for them as a family before the ceremony. 
I love to be there to capture these precious moments.  

And then off to a her wedding day! --what a special day it was! 

I loved the laid back simplicity of spending time with this family for an entire day.  It was an average day of having all the family together in one place for winter vacation at their home in Rangeley Maine.  As my last session of 2018, it brought such joy to spend the time capturing these moments and memories for all of them as has been so nice reliving the day with them as I go back through these pictures. 

I truly think the everyday is just as monumental as the big events... Because as we moms know the days are long but the years are short and who doesn't want to capture every detail of each of these special seasons of our lives! I hope you enjoy this slideshow of a small portion of my favorites that tell the story of a day in the life with this great family. ​

What a sweet family, filled with love! I love being able to meet new families and observe and capture the sweet interactions and joy that is shared.
Here are just a few from my favorites, to help tell the story of the day in just a few photos. 
Thank you Looks for including me in your special reunion!

This gorgeous wedding took place last July (yes, I am the worst at keeping up with my blog!)
on Deer Isle one of the prettiest spots in Maine I have ever seen. How beautiful it was doesn't compare to the relationship and love story between Emma & Sam and all the special people they invited to witness them join their lives as one on this special day.
I am just going to let the photos speak for themselves, to tell their story. ....

I wish you all happiness as you navigate through life together, God bless your marriage!
