My Favorite 2015 Photographs + An Awesome Contest! | Maine Wedding Photographer | Maine Portrait Photographer

January 1, 2016 /

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… 2015 WAS AMAZING. I really couldn’t be happier with the whole year, top to bottom, and my clients this year — all 19 weddings & 136 portraits’ worth — were seriously incredible. I wanted to do a round up of my favorite images from the year and… damn, it was tough to narrow it down. I tried to keep it to mostly portraits, both from weddings and other shoots, but a few more candid shots snuck in there, too. I hope you enjoy looking through these as much as I enjoyed taking them!

As an added bonus, I am turning this into a CONTEST! Each photo has a corresponding number. Just comment down below with your favorite # photograph — easy, right? On Wednesday, January 6th I will tally up the votes and whoever has the most votes will receive a 16×20 CANVAS OF THAT PHOTO! Heck yeaaaah! We all like pretty photos on our walls, and this is a great way to get a HUGE, impressive canvas up on your wall this month. 🙂 Everyone can only vote once (and you’re free to vote for yourself, if you want!), so send your friends & family over to check it out and cast a vote while they’re here. 😉
