Meredith & Patrick | Jackson, NH Photogrpaher

Meredith & Patrick are outdoor enthusiasts.  They love to spend time outside be it ski season or golf season.  They often spend weekends in Mt. Washington Valley enjoying all the different seasons outdoor activities.  Last weekend they made the trip up to the mountains from their Maine coast home for their engagement session.  We dodged the raindrops and had a great time at Jackson Falls.  Even their little Pug-Beagle cross joined us for a few shots.

These two have the best laughs ever!!! So contagious.

Something about these tall pines makes me very happy.

This last shot might be one of my all time favorite engagement photos.  Hmmmm new canvas for my wall?

Thanks guys for making the trip and for taking some time to feed our local bug population.  Can't wait for September!!

XOXO Spring

Suzie & Andrew's Wedding

One of Suzie's maids of honor is an old summer camp friend of mine.  Kristen told Suzie she had a friend who was a wedding photographer and lucky for me Suzie liked my worked and was excited to have me as her photographer.  Suzie and Andrew were married on Sunday May 29th on a perfect, warm, blue sky day. My second shooter for the day was the super fabulous Nicole Chan- she started the day with the boys. Who started their day watching tv and drinking a beer- typical boys :)

I started the day with the ladies over at The Red Lion Inn.

If you couldn't tell I really loved her dress.

The light in this room was stunning!!!!

Time to get married!!!

I'm pretty sure there are tears in those eyes.

A few great up close and personal shots of the rings courtesy of Nicole.

The most genuine smiles ever!!!!

Thank you Suzie and Andrew for allowing me to capture your amazing love.  I wish you all the happiness in the world! XOXO Spring

Spring Smith Studios has a studio

There were a lot of factors that went into the decision to rent a space for my studio.  I wanted a place to meet clients that wasn't my living room with a crazy barking dog and I wanted a place to go to work somewhere that laundry and dishes wouldn't distract me from my editing.  It didn't take long to find the perfect place and although it took a month or two to nail down the details it feels amazing to see my dream come to life. I've finally moved into my studio- things are not 100% finished yet but things are starting to fall into place.  A few new canvases are on their way and I'm still searching for a few final decorations but it feels like the space I wanted to create.  Once things are totally finished I'll be sure to do a full post with lots of photos but for now this gives you the idea :)

This weekend is my first wedding consultation in my new studio and I'm beyond excited to really use this space the way I've imagined it.

XOXO Spring

the location of my dreams.

I didn't want to even set up an appointment to visit French's Point until I knew it was feasible that I could get married at this stunning Maine ocean side estate.  I knew if I visited this place that I've been online stalking for over 4 years was out of my reach for my own wedding it would break my heart to see it in person.  Once the budget was set my brain went into over drive crunching numbers. Yesterday my mom, one of my bridesmaids Shannon and I took the 3 hour drive to Stockton Springs to have a formal tour of French's Point.  After drooling and ogling over this venue online for so long there was the faintest bit of worry that once I saw it in person maybe it wasn't possible to live up to the dreams I have had... I was wrong.

This place BLEW ME AWAY!!!! After chatting with the super sweet & amazing owner Jessika and walking the grounds drooling and drooling and honestly being completely wide eyed I signed a contract and now can officially say I'm going to be  French's Point bride!!!!

180 degree view of the ocean- aaaahhhh I can't wait :)

XOXO Spring
