My photo
I been a professional photographer since I worked for the US Government documenting Test and Evaluation of Research and Development projects for the US Army and US Navy in the later half of the 1980s. I came home to Maine to finish my Marketing Degree at USM and began to work full time in Market Research and Marketing for many years while documenting weddings and occasional photojournalist and commercial jobs on the weekends. In 2001 I again returned to photography as a full time trade and have never been a happier man. I love working with creative individuals, couples, small businesses and select Non-Profits and can’t imagine working in any other trade. In 1987 I was lucky enough to wed my high school sweetheart and we now live in a cozy little solar powered, recycled bungalow a mile deep in our woods in the Western Hills of Maine with our two brilliant home-schooled teenage daughters and our three cats.

Casco Bay Lines

When I said that I didn't want this blog to take the typical cliche look at Maine, this didn't mean that I don't enjoy the Atlantic Ocean and Maritime aspects of my state. It is just that I think they are given way too much deference when people think of Maine.

Here is a shot of a car ferry in the Casco Bay Line. I just came upon it again in my system. I had made it with my then 'new' 10.5/2.8 fisheye nikkor lens on a location scouting trip that I made to Peaks Island in Casco Bay this last summer in preparation to photograph a wedding there at either the excellent Jone's Landing or the equally resplendent Inn at Peaks Island.

The Casco Bay Lines are a very affordable way to get about to the islands in Casco Bay or to just cruise the bay itself on a hot summer afternoon. (They are a bit cold this time of year.)
