  • Serves Dover, NH

Hey there! I’m Katherine, a Maine-based editorial and documentary-style wedding photographer. I love saltwater, the color blue, pubs with booths, my dog Annie, and cooking a big meal to loud music at the end of a long day.

We are thrilled with the photos Katherine took at both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. She worked with us from the start to create a package that fit our budget, understand our hopes, and review the smallest details. When the day arrived, she helped us shift to indoor locations on a rainy day and captured incredible shots in challenging lighting and weather. The gallery she delivered was gorgeous and perfectly captured the emotions of the day. We recommend her ten times over!

Her communication was outstanding, and we knew immediately she was the right fit. On the day of our wedding, Alex's positive attitude, attention to detail, and ability to capture all the special moments made her an absolute joy to work with. The quality of her work is truly extraordinary - her photos have a unique aesthetic with a slight classic touch that we were looking for in our wedding portraits. The engagement shoot was a great opportunity to see her talent firsthand, and we were thrilled to be able to share those beautiful images with our friends and family. Alex is undoubtedly the most amazing wedding photographer on the Seacoast, and her stunning photos are a testament to her skills.

I have always been enthusiastic about photography. One thing that really got me into photography was realizing that every moment can be something very special. I like to take pictures of candid moments with natural light. With those, my camera is just clicking and the results are always phenomenal! I believe that one photo could create an incredible story. That's why I have lots of affection towards every photo and I work on them with all of my heart.

Julie was everything we were looking for in a photographer and more! A talented photographer, extremely professional, easy to work with, and an upbeat personality. Julie not only took fantastic photos that we are going to cherish, she was able to capture our wedding day story in the way we were hoping for with a mix of portraits, action shots, and candids. My wife is usually uncomfortable having her picture taken, which we were able to discuss with Julie during our virtual consultations. Julie did an amazing job of making us both comfortable and efficiently capturing the posed portraits. She also managed to take artistic candids unobtrusively from afar, some of which ended up being our favorite shots! Plus she was just pleasant to work with and have around on our special day! Thank you Julie for capturing our moments better than we could have imagined.

I'm a light and airy Wedding & Boudoir photographer based in southern New Hampshire. Since 2008 I have been documenting couples in love all over New England and even Jamaica. I live in Epping, New Hampshire with my husband Marc and our two adorable boys, Cian & Cormac. When I'm not shooting weddings I can be found enjoying time with my little family. I love gardening, cooking, sipping bourbon based cocktails and nightly dance parties with my boys.

Julie was amazing! I would call us a pretty laid-back couple, and Julie fit in just right with our vibe. She really helped us stay calm and organized while chugging through pictures with our large families and loud wedding party. I can’t believe we had 15 sneak peeks within 24 hours, and ALL of our photos by our 1 month anniversary. She was able to make our cloudy wedding day so light and bright! Thank you, Julie!

Growing up in Kennebunkport we had high expectations for our wedding at The Colony. Of course, the venue speaks for itself as the perfect backdrop for any wedding. No one will question that The Colony offers the best grounds and views for a wedding held in Kennebunkport. Our wedding was 130 people and the lawn (ceremony), front porch (cocktail hour), and ballroom (reception) were all great spaces for our guests. Our wedding day far exceeded our expectations and was truly a magical day for us, our family, and our friends. What truly set this experience apart was our wedding coordinator, Nicole. Her dedication, creativity, and organization made the planning process seamless and enjoyable. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail was tailored to our vision. On the big day, we felt well prepared, and Nicole orchestrated everything flawlessly, allowing us to focus on enjoying each moment without any stress. We cannot thank her enough for the work put in to making the day perfect! Also of note, the food and drinks were exceptional, and we still have friends and family raving about the meal several months after the event (we went with the buffet option). We will happily recommend The Colony to anyone looking to have their special day in southern Maine!

Venue considerations

  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists

We had the most wonderful wedding experience at Wentworth by the Sea and could not recommend this venue to other couples enough. Catherine Chapman and her staff were professional, communicative, and had our best interests in mind right at the start, from working out all of the last-minute details to staying in touch in the weeks following our wedding. They worked to ensure all of our needs were met – from food allergies to necessary photo breaks – and when we had questions or needed a last-minute change in our plans, they did everything they could to go above and beyond our expectations. The biggest takeaway we heard from our guests was how amazing the food and beverages were, and we couldn't agree more. At cocktail hour, the hors d'oeuvres were passed frequently, the appetizer stations were a hit, and the bar staff was excellent at keeping the lines moving. At the reception, there wasn't a clean plate in the entire ballroom. We also appreciated that the venue had great recommendations for vendors. From flowers to rentals and a band that kept everyone on their feet, we felt that we had the best team to support us and make our day look and feel exactly how we imagined. We could not have pictured a more perfect way to celebrate our love, and the staff at Wentworth by the Sea made us feel like one-in-a-million!

Annie Rae's Photography 

5.0

One of my first memories of my mother was her picking me up from my babysitter’s on a snow day during her lunch break and taking me to go sledding at their nearest hill. What was she doing while I was traveling up and down that hill? Taking photos of the surrounding scenery. As I grew older and lost my mother, I started to value the moments that were captured on camera more and more. As film turned to digital, it became easier to take photos of everything and anything, and then choosing what to keep.

We have used Raeann of Annie Rae's for many years. She is our go to for capturing the special moments in our loves as well as for our annual holiday card shoot. We have an energetic and quirky black lab that can make capturing quality shots quite challenging and Raeann's steps up to the plate each time. She always delivers superior images to us. Highly reccommend!

We got married at the Envio on May 6 after 1.5 years of planning. The coordinator, Katryn, is amazing at her job and made everything easy to understand along the way. In our opinion the Envio is a great value for the area. All of our guests enjoyed their stay at the hotel, as well as the wedding itself from the contemporary design of the event space to the food and beverage!
