We love emotion. We love bear hugs, tears of joy, stomach churning excitement and laughter that brings you to your knees. Capturing emotion is one of our greatest strengths, and one of the most frequent compliments we receive from our clients. We feed off of it, we celebrate it and we get to witness it often through our work.
But Stacia & Lloyd… they bring more emotion than any of us could have ever expected. These two were jubilant to be getting married. They had fun, they laughed, they cried, Stacia sang (I’m not kidding), Lloyd danced (at times alone) while the band jammed for a half hour straight… and their families responded in turn with an outpouring of love and joy. They’re our kind of people: they know who they are, and are so comfortable with themselves that they wore their emotions on their sleeves.
Stacia had a little Roaring 40’s “thing” happening in her outfit, and this image is timeless…

Always a connection, always a glance, always a smile…
Stacia and Lloyd are a New York couple who chose the Bar Harbor Regency to host their wedding and reception because Maine was the location of their very first vacation together. We’ve stayed at the Regency many times before during the LL Bean catalog photo shoots, but I was completely unfamiliar with their wonderful ”Stone House,” which is a private building nearby with commanding ocean views and a certain sense of elegance and intimacy that’s hard to find.
Minotts Floral Creation. Beautiful.

Another burst of laughter!
Stacia & Lloyd’s day was a handcrafted wedding that was filled with thoughtful, personal details… but at the same time was about as unpretentious as a wedding could be. Their ability to laugh, cry and be “real” was truly beautiful to observe and capture. Thanks for including Christine and I in your big day. You’re an inspiration to all of us!
