Maine is gorgeous in the summer. People from all over the country flock here, to enjoy our cool breezes in August, and of course our gorgeous beaches. But for those of us who live here, Maine is beautiful all year long, and we don’t run back to DC when October comes.
In fact, we love Maine all year long. In the winter we ice fish, or cross country ski, or snow shoe. Or in Ashley and Matt’s case, they got married.
Winter is a perfect time to get married in Maine. You don’t need to worry if it rains (or snows), because it’s so cold outside you were probably planning to have your ceremony indoors. And you can reserve any wedding venue you want, because they’re probably not booked in the winter. Which in Ashley and Matt’s case was one of Portland’s finest hotels, the Westin Portland Harborview.
Below are my favorite pictures from their wedding, and three images you should look for.
- A silhouette of Ashley at the Top of the East lounge on the top floor of the Westin.
- A first dance picture where the couple stepped in between me and one of my flashes, creating a beautiful sun flare (after sunset, and inside).
- Great night time shots of the couple outside, including one with the traffic driving past on High Street.
I hope you like the images, and thanks for looking. — Will
