About Us
Two
Perspectives, One Shared Vision
Hey, We’re Ned & Julia
We've both been meditating long enough to know that in almost any situation, the most important thing is where you put your attention.
Ned has made art his whole life—from photography to graphic design to fine art. Julia came up through contemplative practice and entrepreneurship, with a passion for storytelling rooted in presence and care.
That's what we bring to your wedding day — knowing when to guide you into a moment, and when to disappear so it can happen on its own.

Julia started in photography with drones, and Ned pulled her into a couples session to teach her the basics. Her real initiation was being sent straight into the bridal suite at her first wedding. She was instantly hooked on the sweet, moments, and now she co-leads and leads weddings of her own. A lover of storytelling, she came up with our fun side project, Couples of Maine.
Julia lives for the intimate moments — the vows, a first look, an emotional speech, and will probably be tearing up behind the camera right along with everyone else. Her eye for genuine, unposed connection means nothing small gets missed — from quiet moments to the smallest details.

Loves cooking curries for Julia
Ned fell in love with photography and filmmaking in his early 20s—drawn to storytelling through art. That passion led him to direct and produce the documentary Mother Daughter, while he began documenting weddings in Colorado. Now, in the off-season, Ned teaches 'Mindful Photography' at his alma mater, Colby College.
Ned loves the energetic joy of the celebration all day — especially right after the 'I do's.' Couples portraits are a favorite too: he's all about capturing genuine emotion and helping you feel comfortable enough to be completely yourselves, so the photos end up full of real feeling. And yes, he's not above a few dad jokes to get there.
You are the reason we do this work
At every step, we create space for you to be fully present while documenting your wedding day with an approach that's both timeless and true to who you are.
Your wedding day deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt.
We care just as much about how you feel on your wedding day as how it looks in photos, which means helping you feel steady and genuinely yourselves when it matters most.
Our values and care show up in how we plan with you, how we communicate, and how we show up for your wedding day — not just as photographers, but as people who genuinely want the day to feel its absolute best.

Our Values
-
![Diverse family]()
Inclusivity
We photograph every love story exactly as it is — every background, every culture, every family, every kind of love. You'll always be welcomed and celebrated here, all parts and identities, exactly as you are.

Steady Presence
The most important thing in almost any moment is where you put your attention. We stay calm and steady no matter what the day throws at us — so that steadiness can be part of what you feel, too.

Care
We try to leave every person and every space we touch a little better than we found it — with kindness, respect, and care in equal measure. We intend to show up bringing all of ourselves and giving all we have to each celebration.
