Still, there is no rest. There is too much more to do. 2012 goals will target user traffic and editorial content. Our expectations are high but we’re up to the challenge. Luckily our 20-year plan is outlined to keep us busy. Internet and technology industries change daily and there’s no shortage of great ideas. Above it all, we are committed to making Maine’s wedding industry thrive online. So with that said … on to another year!
Congrats to new friends Eben and Denise! Bar Harbor Club is one of my favorite Maine wedding venues. I work with the team there a lot. When the staff asked me to photograph one of their own, I jumped in! Eben and his fun, fabulous bride Denise had a fun, crazy wedding that was well-deserved and a long-time coming. It was great to be part of the day. Congrats to my friend Deb for pulling off such a super duper wedding for one of your own company men! Here’s a few fun ones …
This is a great wedding! Ying and Chieu combined their traditional Chinese values and their love of Maine for a festive, family wedding that was everyone enjoyed. Take a look at these images and notice some fabulous Chinese traditions including the use of red in all the decor for happiness, loyalty and passion, the gold paper cranes hanging over the couple’s ceremony for luck, and the tradition of gift-giving during a tea ceremony by family. It was an honor to work for this family! I wish Ying and Chieu all the very best!
