Maine Photographer | Ben & Claire Engagement Session | Pine Point Scarborough

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Mon, 27 Mar 2023 23:06:27 GMT

Ben & Claire will marry in June at Joesph's By the Sea in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. I was so happy to be able to meet and get to know them better before their wedding. I was especially excited to meet 7 year old Hazel. We shared so many laughs. The weather was beautiful but very blustery however we made it work. Pine Point is where Ben grew up and so it made it that much more special. I can not wait to see them again in June.

Nonantum Resort Wedding | Anderson & Julia | Kennebunkport Maine | Maine Wedding Photographer

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Fri, 30 Sep 2022 23:50:42 GMT

If you have ever been around Julia and Anderson, you can testify they were meant to be. The way they look at each other just gives you goosebumps. Julia's laugh is infectious, and Anderson's GQ looks made it very easy on my end. They were so easy to photograph because they just fit so well together, and I knew their wedding day would be just spectacular. Enjoy a glimpse into their wedding day.

Anderson and Julia met a few years ago via the interwebs, and stayed in touch. They reconnected after Julia slid into Anderson's DMs to chat about a country concert Anderson attended, and then continued based on their mutual love of Australia. Their first date was in the midst of COVID, and with very few restaurants open, they ended up at a local Boston bar where there was no shortage of conversation. Some might say the rest is history. A few months later, after Julia had recently finished the Boston Marathon, the two jet-setted off to Greece where Anderson got down on one knee with the beautiful Santorini as their backdrop.

Julia knew her wedding had to be in Maine. When thinking about where to get married, it was a no-brainer for her. Her family has owned property at Goose Rocks Beach since the 60s, and they have summered there ever since. It was the constant in her life, and the views weren't horrible either :)

0C8A3789 0C8A3792 0C8A3802 0C8A3793 0C8A3816 7L2A7228 Julia and Anderson created a wedding website, and when I was reading through the bios of Julia's 7 bridesmaids, it was clear she had some friendships that have lasted for up to 20+ years. It was filled with great stories of how they met and what keeps them together. Look how cute they all looked in their matching jammies!

7L2A7295 copy Julia's wedding gown was right out of an Audrey Hepburn movie: so classic and perfect. Julia really had such a vision for every detail of her wedding. Her bridesmaids were almost in tears when they saw her in her wedding gown for the first time.

In terms of the guys? Well, what can I say? They had rented a house 3 minutes from the wedding venue, and let me say, they sure seemed very relaxed when I arrived. Anderson and his wedding party wore blue suits, and each had a special liner hand-picked by each of the 6 groomsmen. I found them hanging out watching TV with a beer in hand. Anderson also had long-term friendships with each of his groomsmen; especially his two brothers.

The first look with Julia's dad, William, was very sweet.

The first look between the bride and groom really is such an intimate moment. The moment the groom turns around to see his bride for the first time can be very emotional. Anderson was speechless when he saw Julia in her wedding gown. There were a few on-lookers that cheered them on. But on my gosh, don't they both look like they walked out of Real Maine Wedding Magazine?

The Nonantum Resort in Kennebunkport is like no other wedding venue in Maine. They have such a spectacular property with beautiful flowers, dockside views of the ocean, and of course a sailboat. Traditionally, the groom and groomsmen sail off for about an hour to do, well, whatever groomsmen do on a sailboat right before their friend gets married. They return just moments before the ceremony begins.

The ceremony site was just breathtaking, with an arbor of flowers, and a live painter that was painting the bride and groom as they said their vows surrounded by family and friends. Julia's and Anderson's nephews were just precious as their ring bearers. Keep an eye out for their entrances.

Maine Wedding Photographer | Courtney & AJ | Engagement Session | Kettle Cove

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Thu, 23 Jun 2022 00:52:49 GMT

Courtney and AJ attended the same high school, where they met and started to join each other’s, friend groups. After planning all day during a busy school day, AJ had the idea to ask Courtney to prom. He had to quite literally chase her down in the parking lot to ask her (she knew he was planning to ask and was hoping he’d just send a text instead). After catching her, she said “yes” … for the first time. They planned for a first date to come later that week. Their first date was accompanied by a few of their friends due to the nerves of a first date. They enjoyed each other’s silliness so much, they spent pretty much every day together after school.

Years later, after both graduating college, making new friends, and living in two separate states from each other, they moved in together in Raymond, Maine. This quickly became their favorite place to be.

10 years into their relationship, on April 13 of 2021, with Courtney’s family circled around on a rooftop during golden hour in Florida, they were able to watch as she said “yes” … for the second time. After a year of just enjoying their engagement, they started planning their wedding. Despite living out of state in Pittsburgh, PA, they knew their wedding had to take place in Maine. They look forward to saying “I do” at the River Winds Farm and Estate on July 15, 2023 with their family and closest friends.

Maine Wedding | Esther & Jason Wyman | Atlantic Hall Cape Porpoise Maine

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Thu, 13 Jan 2022 00:47:09 GMT

Jason and Esther were married on Saturday, January 8th 2022 at the Atlantic Hall in Cape Porpoise, Maine. It was a beautiful, sunny winter day filled with friends and family.

Jason and Esther met in May of 2020 through a family member. Esther was invited for dinner, at his parent's to be introduced. She thought he was so cute she couldn’t look him in the eyes and he apparently kept thinking why isn’t this girl looking at me? Jason struck up a conversation anyways and 2 months later they began dating. In November of 2021, Jason proposed at Scarborough beach. Jason asked if she wanted to take a walk on the beach and she remembers just not feeling well but decided to go anyway. It was very cold but then he asked her if she wanted to spend forever with him and it was an offer she didn’t want to refuse. 52 days later they were married. On an even colder day but the friends and family that gathered warmed our hearts!

Congratulations Jason and Esther and I wish you much joy, health and happiness.

Maine Wedding | Kelly & Eric | DiMillo's on the Water | Portland Maine

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Fri, 15 Oct 2021 18:01:00 GMT

Eric and Kelly first met in February of 2012 on a dating website called Catholic Match dot com. They talked online for a bit before deciding to finally meet at Otto’s pizza in Portland. The two of them slowly fell in love as they got to know each other over time. They had always talked of marriage, but Eric didn’t propose until June of 2019. He bought a ring and showed it to her family, who he had also grown to love, and they all kept it a secret from Kelly. That was until June when the two of them went on vacation in Savannah, Georgia, and Hilton Head NC. Kelly was caught completely off guard and it was a beautiful and emotional moment. After that, the planning began and the two of them decided on an October wedding in 2021.

They were married at Grace Baptist Church on October 9, 2021. They were surrounded by friends and family. The day was beautiful and seasonably warm. Eric and Kelly have a wonderful sense of humor, and they complement each other so nicely. The reception was at Dumillo's restaurant in the heart of the Old Port in Portland, Maine.

Kelly and Eric are currently building a new home, and plan on building their life there filled with new traditions, friends, and family.

Maine Engagement Session Tory & Kristopher | Fort Williams Maine | Maine Photographer

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Thu, 15 Jul 2021 16:23:14 GMT

Meet Tory and Kristopher.

As for their story? It’s pretty unique. They met in college almost 20 years ago. Literally in their very first class together. Kristopher was completely infatuated. He found Tory intelligent, funny, beautiful, and most importantly incredibly interesting. They began the start of a friendship. After a couple of months Kristopher worked up the courage to ask Tory out and she basically cut him off and said she was interested in someone else and just wanted to be friends. So they both continued to be friends and went about their separate lives. Ironically they both ended up leaving school early and lost touch. Fast forward 17 years and after 2 marriages for Kristopher and lots of interesting life hurdles for the both of them, He ended up in Boston where Tory had been for several years. They reconnected via Facebook and decided to go for dinner to rekindle their friendship. After several very long nights of getting lost in conversation, Tory invited herself to his company holiday party because it was going to be at the new casino, the Encore. Well that’s the night everything changed and their relationship become more than friends. That was January last year. As you can imagine with the quarantining they had 2 choices. 1) Quarantine together or 2) not see each other for the foreseeable future. They decided to do it together, living in Toyr's very small studio apartment together for the next 11 months. Their relationship grew very strong and serious pretty quickly. They moved into their first apartment together this February and a couple of weeks later he proposed! Oh course ses said yes!

They will be saying I do at Coolidge Family Farm in Gray Maine In July of 2022.

Maine Engagement Session | Cheyenne & Sam | Goose Rocks Beach | Susan Costa Photography

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Wed, 16 Jun 2021 20:13:45 GMT

Meet Sam & Cheyenne.

Sam and Cheyenne have been together for almost three years but it feels like it’s been a lifetime already in the best possible way. They met at the gym, and after seeing each other many times Sam approached Cheyenne. It’s cliche to say but they knew in that moment it was truly love at first sight. They have been inseparable since that first day, always spending time together usually enjoying the outdoors or cooking together. Their little family grew after welcoming two Labradoodles, Cooper and Zoey. They love to take them on walks and explore. Last spring they spent the weekend in the White Mountains. On the last night, we sat on the balcony bundled up with the doodles, drinking hot cocoa when Sam popped the big question overlooking Mt. Washington. It was very romantic and perfect in every way. Their family grew more as they now have the most precious little boy Bryson, who is our world. Sam & Cheyenne can’t wait to be married soon and have Bryson and the doodles with us to celebrate.

A September 2021 wedding is planned.

Maine Engagement Session | Lindsey & Jake | Kettle Cove | Maine

susan@susancostaphotography.com (Susan Costa Photography) — Sun, 06 Jun 2021 21:57:01 GMT

Meet Linsday & Jake.

It was 2017 when it all began when two single twenty-something-year-olds swiped right on Bumble.

After some short talk back and forth, numbers were exchanged and a first date took place that very same week. On the second date, Lindsey was brought home to a lobster bake with Jake's family, and that’s when our adventure began!

Three years later the question was asked - of course, she said yes!

Fast forward to four years later, they built their very first home together and are enjoying their two kittens while working hard to reach for our dreams! A 2022 wedding date is planned at Coolidge Family Farm in Gray Maine.
