Alete Salon & Spa | Grand Opening in Madawaska
On Friday September 26, I had the absolute pleasure of joining Jenney Dionne celebrate the Grand Opening of her very own salon- a dream come true for her! Alete Salon opened it’s doors, officially, last month. A large crowd showed up to show their support, check out the new salon, and enter to win a few prizes. Everyone who booked an appointment saved 20% off their total too! While mingling,
I met Patience via a Facebook contest I was having in the winter of 2012. I gave away a $500 gift certificate to be used towards any of my services and/or products and Patience was my lucky winner. However, after knowing her for the last 2 years, I think I might be the lucky one! She’s country, she knows how to have fun, and she has a positive outlook on

Stephanie + Sheldon | A Real Maine Wedding
If I can’t smell coffee brewing when I wake up on the day of a wedding, I get anxious… I’m already behind at this point! Alas, I woke up to the fragrant aroma of dark roast coffee on this special day for Stephanie and Sheldon. Everything was going as planned already. I began checking my packing list for the wedding ahead of my assistant and I, and double checking all

Jiffy Print Online – A Personal Review
It was a normal weekend evening and I was browsing Twitter for companies or people to follow that appealed to me. I had just gotten a business card order from a widely-known printing company and I was online posting about them. I stumbled across a Tweet about 500 free business cards from Jiffy Print Online on Mondays. They’re giving away sets of 500 cards to celebrate the launching of their

Destination Wedding Photography
Every morning, I get up, make a pot of coffee, and read & respond to emails from engaged couples asking about my pricing, what’s included, etc… and they are not always in Maine. Sometimes they are even as far as Southern California. While responding to these messages I’ve noticed one thing… A lot do not respond once they realize my location. They either assume I do not travel or that

Amy + Mathew | A Real Maine Wedding
The day started like any other day. A fresh pot of coffee to aid in the charging of the last of my AA and AAA batteries and packing all of my gear into the truck. I left about 45 minutes early so I could capture all the details of the wedding. The drive was pleasant, the weather was amazing, and the sun was shining bright. (Last year, I had my
