I met this lovely family at Baxter Woods the day after Thanksgiving for a chilly, snowy extended family session, and even though the afternoon air was quite crisp, the light was gorgeous!

I can’t even begin to describe how honored I am to have one of my photos published in Dear Photographer Magazine. This is the first time I have been published for my photography work and I almost couldn’t believe it until I got my copy in the mail and saw my photo in print!

I am always amazed by how much newborns change from meeting them at the hospital for their Fresh 48 session to seeing them at home a week or two later for their at home session.

Summer feels so far away right now, but this fun couple session is keeping me warm on this chilly January day. I met up with Emily and Kyle at the East End Beach in July last summer and I had so much fun capturing their love and connection.

I met up with this lovely crew at Fort Williams for their fall session and we lucked out with mild temperatures and beautiful sunlight! I always love photographing Katie (isn't her hair color to die for?! #hairgoals) and her beautiful family—they just exude love and joy!

Megan | Maine Maternity Photographer | Stepheney Collins Photography

Imagine a quiet wooded scene with snow on the ground, a creek dribbling nearby, and sunlight streaming through leafless tree branches. That was the backdrop for Megan’s lovely maternity session. While planning her shoot, we had talked about having a snowy backdrop and we were so lucky that there was still snow on the ground for her shoot!

When I think of people who love Maine, my dear friend Lindsay is the first person who comes to mind. This fall, she visited and brought her 11 month old Leland for his first ever visit to Maine!

Meet Beau | Maine Newborn Lifestyle Photographer | Stepheney Collins Photography

Meet sweet little Beau, who surprised everyone by arriving a wee bit earlier than his due date. This whole family was such a joy to photograph, including the family’s lovable pup Vinny, who became my best friend the moment I walked in the door.

Fresh 48 sessions are a beautiful thing. Sometimes chaotic, sometimes quiet, you never know what the arrival of a new soul will bring to the family. The dynamic will change, and these first few moments are the beginnings of that change, of that new family dynamic.

Cindy + Brody | Shady Lane Farm Wedding | Maine Wedding Photographer | Stepheney Collins Photography

Cindy + Brody were married at Shady Lane Farm on a perfectly fall-like October day. Going through their images I found that I couldn't stop smiling—the love, joy, and pure happiness radiating from these two was so strong that I wouldn't be surprised if it could be felt miles away.

Oh my, what a sweetheart Declan is! He was so smiley for our whole session at Mackworth Island, perfectly content running around in the grass, playing with his pup, and finding the perfect tree to pose next to.

The weather may have been drizzly and dreary that day, but it did not dampen the spirit of this family at their session! The little ones were lively and on the move the minute we started, and I had so much fun exploring Maine Audubon with them.

When I think back on this session, all I can think about is how much fun it was. Like seriously, so. much. fun. I mean, it turned into an adventure the minute they decided to wade out in the water to pose on some lobster traps.

Rachel | Maine Maternity Photographer | Stepheney Collins Photography

I love photographing maternity sessions so much. I think there is so much more to them than meets the eye, because here you have two people right before their lives change. The time before the birth of a new baby is special and so very much deserves to be documented.

Looking through the images from this session, you would never know how cold and windy it was that day at Maine Audubon. I always worry about the little ones being too cold when the temperatures drop in the fall, but these two cuties were troopers the whole time!

This lovely session at Fuller Farm in Scarborough feels like fall to me and I just want to package this feeling up and save it to enjoy year round. Jessie and Nick were adventurous and met me at this new to me spot for a session and we had so much fun exploring the fields and trying not let our boots get stuck in the mud!

Meet Jarrett, one of the best little sleepers in town! This little guy did open his eyes a few times to check things out, but for the most part, he was out like a light, content to just sleep the day away.

Newborn sessions are such a gift to photograph. I am always so blown away witnessing the love and joy a new little life brings to families, especially through the eyes of the older siblings. These two big brothers had so much love for their new baby
Give me a fun loving family, sunshine, and a beautiful seaside location and I feel like the luckiest photographer in the world! This sweet family session somehow happened in between rain clouds and even featured lots of glorious sunshine as we explor
The thing about being an artist is that there is an ebb and flow to creativity. And sometimes you get stuck. You get bogged down in what you think you should be making and you forget the weird, quirky stuff that got you into photography in the first
