Matt & Lauren | The Hardy Farm Fryeburg, Maine

Take two very creative artists, a perfect June day, a rustic Maine barn venue, friends and family and a whole lot of love and you've got the ingredients that made up Matt and Lauren's wedding day.  When Matt first reached out to me about their wedding over a year ago I was so flattered to have two such incredible artists (Lauren is an illustrator and Matt's a graphic artist) be so enthusiastic about my work, it was the biggest compliment.  When we shot their engagement session last summer I just knew these two were the perfect Spring Smith Studios couple!  They were fun, silly, adorable and totally head over heals in love.  Their wedding day was nothing short of spectacular!!  We had the perfect weather and a timeline that allowed for lots and lots of photos- plus they hired Nora of SP Films so I had some fun company documenting the day along side me.  The whole day just flowed effortlessly which i'm sure had a ton to do with their onsite planner and all the awesome vendors.   Thank you Matt and Lauren for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day, it was a true and honest joy! XOXO, Spring

Timber Hill Farm | Gilford, NH

A few months ago I reached out to Mindy of Private Weddings and Events to ask about this new venue, Timber Hill Farm, I kept seeing her post about on social media.  She told me this wonderful family had just opened their farm for weddings and events and that I should come check it out for myself.  Well, if you know me and you saw one photo of this place you'd know I was ready to go that afternoon.  Unfortunately with the crazy schedules that make up the summer months we decided to hold off and plan a trip when they had their new sail tent up and custom wood tables in place just before their big open house in early July.  When I was ready to make the trip I asked Anne Skidmore of Anne Skidmore Photography to come join me for an afternoon of take photos at this beautiful location in Guilford looking across the fields to the lake and then right up to Mt. Washington!!!  Let me tell you we were FAR from disappointed!  This venue is amazing!  In real estate they say "location, location, location" and as far as a wedding venue goes- this has one of the best locations.   I can't wait to shoot here *hint hint brides* and get back up there with a bride and groom to add to all these stunning landscape shots! Thank you Mindy for having Anne and I and thank you to the Howe family for letting us preview your open house and for the wonderful tour of the property!  Enjoy :)

xoxo, Spring

Hardy Farm Wedding | Fryeburg Maine

Nathan and Stephanie were married on a perfect June day at The Hardy Farm in Fryeburg Maine.  They had a small intimate wedding in the outdoor woodland sanctuary surrounded by their closest friends and family, followed by a classic Maine lobster bake and dancing in the beautiful barn.  These two were all smiles all day long!

Kelli & John's Colony Hotel Wedding | Kennebunkport, ME

I've known Kelli since we were little girls playing dress up and getting into mischief.  We were even had the coolest best friends necklaces ever, they were cats who's tails twisted together.  Yup we were those cool kids.   As the years have gone by we haven't seen much of one another but I think we've both always known that no matter what we were friends.  When Kelli asked me if I would photograph her and John's wedding in Kennebunk I didn't even have words to express how honored I was let alone how excited I was. The morning of their late June wedding arrived and the weather was perfect.  Sun shining, a light breeze coming in off the water and crystal blue skies.  It was the perfect day and John is the perfect man for Kelli.  I had so much fun with these two and could not be happier to have been able to document their love and the start of their lives together.

XOXO Spring
