Unvarnished + Cinematic Weddings in Maine + Spaceship Earth
We help the madly in love stay present without pretense on thier wedding day.
You want an wedding that feels like you two.
Getting married is the best thing that we ever did. 💙
You don’t want perfection. You want to feel alive. You don’t want to keep your hair perfect or your shoes on. You want to feel the mist and the familiar hand of your partner.
Couples get married because they love each other. They have a party because they love everyone else in their orbit. Your wedding will be bursting at the seams with joy... just like that love story of yours.
The place you make this commitment matters. The words you exchange are sacred. Our photographs will help you feel those goosebumps again.
We have been witnesses to some of the most extraordinary moments between couples. “How it feels” is what we are good at photographing.
“We are afraid this will feel akward and the photos won’t look like the real us.”
We have photographed 300+ weddings of all sizes and vibes. One thing we know for sure is that photos feel a little weird at first, and then… they don’t.
If you are real with us, that’s what you will see in our photographs. We are simply a mirror.
You are here because you want:
A photographic record
We will take photographs of your wedding and then take care of those photographs in order to return them to you for your family record.
Ease
The experience of being photographed needs to feel comfortable, genuine, and like you’re with friends. That is how we want to feel, too. Whew.
Trust
This is a big deal and it matters who you choose to be there with you as your photographers. This is our job and our income. We take it seriously.

Hi.
Bethany
Photographer
Editor and Ideas Person
Dan
Photographer
Logistics Coordinator and Chill Person
Just normal folk.
We met in a lifeguarding class in Raleigh, NC, in 2006.
Our wedding was at sunrise during a nor’easter inside a beach house. Afterward, we were in a parade.
We began photographing weddings in 2010, and since then, our experience includes 300+ weddings, tropical storms, a ceremony outside in the dark, travel, broken bones, the pandemic, and a helicopter ride to a volcano.
In 2013, we moved to Maine because this is the most beautiful place in the world.
Our personalities are opposite. Dan is a quiet extrovert. Bethany is a chatty introvert. Dan spends his free time paddling and surfing. Bethany is listening to a macabre podcast right now. Dan smiles and chuckles a lot. Bethany is animated. We both enjoy gaming. 🤓

Kind words clients have said about us:
“Bethany & Dan are MAGIC!”
— Esme on the Knot
“(CW: broken bones!!) Bethany & Dan are cool under pressure and in a crisis...we started our day after-shoot by getting caught on the water in a squall, then DURING the shoot I broke my toe at a right angle. I can confidently say there were no two people I would've rather had around! They made me laugh, they helped out where needed, and then they were totally down to keep shooting once my friend reset everything and I got my wits about me.”

They are great communicators, they are fun and silly, and we had a blast wandering around Portland with them.
— Amy on Zola
If you are looking for standard-issue wedding photos--well, I'm sure Bethany and Dan Photography can do those, too, but why bother hiring them?! Hire these two lovely, mellow people if you want photographers who are actual artists, who have a vision, who will translate your wedding into incredible, indelible images.
