The Most Beautiful Weddings On The Midcoast Of Maine!
The Samoset Resort is one of midcoast Maine’s most unexpected treasures – a five star resort and golf course in a small coastal town with a population under 4,000. It boggles the mind that it exists, and we’re so grateful that it does – we LOVE working here!
Here are some great reasons to consider the Samoset Resort for your wedding:

Hi guys, it’s Will & Lucia from Focus Photography.
We just wanted to let you know that because we shoot all the weddings at Focus Photography ourselves (we don’t subcontract to ‘associate photographers’ ), we can only accept one wedding a day, and sometimes just one a weekend.
Give us your wedding date below, and we’ll let you know ASAP if we are open, and if so, we’ll also send you all our collection info.
We’ve photographed hundreds of weddings, and have a system to help you have an easy, stress-free day.
Our experience makes your experience better :)
We’ll plan a photo timeline with you weeks before your wedding, so everyone will know where they’re supposed to be, and when.
You’ll Have confidence, calmness and clarity, not chaos!
“Scott’s groomsmen couldn’t stop talking about how funny Will was when he worked with the guys. And these are tough guys.”

We’re a husband/wife photography team, and we shoot all the weddings here at Focus Photography.
Will grew up with a black and white darkroom in his basement, and his first photographic love is B&W.
Love isn’t dull – it’s dramatic, bright, awe-inspiring and fully saturated.
As you look at our galleries, note the chromaticity, and how your eyes react.
"It was awesome to work with Focus Photography. They are true professionals and it was like having a second set of wedding coordinators onsite. Altogether, Will and Lucia are just wonderful people to have around on your wedding day. You can really count on Lucia to know the "what, where, and when" for everyone in the wedding party all morning long. I also couldn't believe how many names she learned! And Will is just a blast to have around, he knows how to make even the most nervous of brides (me) laugh."
There are venues in New England that seat 400 people, and one photographer will never even see some of those tables.
As a rule of thumb, if you're having more than 80 guests, you might also want to consider two photographers.
While there's no reason a more modest guest list can have two photographers, a smaller church or venue is well-handled by one.
Either Will or Lucia will be happy to be your single photographer.
Sometimes the smallest weddings have the most impact.
Whether your wedding consists of just the two of you and an officiant, or ten of your closest friends, we have hourly coverage available for small events every day except Saturdays.
We offer custom-designed heirloom-quality albums and books for all our weddings available afterwards, but the savviest shoppers get the best value by choosing a wedding collection that already include an album.
Our album craftsmen produce each book by hand, binding the boards in your choice of dozens of leathers.
