My best Maine photographs so far, from The Nubble, York through to Cape Porpoise.
As a landscape photographer, I have been traveling to Maine on a regular basis since last September, trying to add shots to my landscape portfolio of the local area. I have built up a collection so far that I am very happy with, although I am continuously looking to improve upon and add to. My landscapes thus far have been based geographically between two Maine landmarks; the Nubble lighthouse in York and Cape Porpoise, some 25 miles to the north. This stretch of coastline is home to some very wonderful and varied landscapes and great photographic opportunities. I love shooting Boston and New England weddings, but I’ll struggle to convince a bride and groom to get up at 4AM to capture some of the best light of the day.
I rise before sunrise and always have my shooting location in mind before I go to bed in the evening. This gives me plenty of time to get to location to capture the beautiful sunrises over the Atlantic Sea and the perfect light that brings. Rivaled only by the evening sunset light maybe, it is hard to beat a sunrise over the northeastern coast of the USA. The mornings offer a greater sense of tranquility and I often find that my only companions at that time of day are either the lobster men who beat me out of bed by a good few hours, a solitary dog walker, making the most of having the run of the beach to themselves or rather unfortunately the mosquitoes that will incessantly bite me if I have forgotten to apply a good dose of deet filled repellant.
I have recently been taken on by one of Kennebunkport’s leading art galleries, The Northlight Gallery, to display and sell my images of the local area. It is a great privilege to have a space here in this gallery, as it carries some of the very best local artist from the area and greater New England. If you are in Kennebunkport, then I would strongly advise a trip into the gallery to see some of the wonderful work on offer by these artists.
Having built a good start to my collection of landscape shots here, taking in Kennebunkport and Kennebunk as well, I thought I should post my best photographs taken here in Maine so far and have disperse them through this post. If you would like to check out some of my other work please visit my landscape portfolio by clicking here, which is constantly being updated to reflect my latest work. If you are interested in booking me as your Boston or Maine wedding photographer or having a landscape piece commissioned, then please do not hesitate to get in touch by going to the contact page. Please also feel free to leave any comments to let me know what your thoughts on these shots.
Cheers,
ROBERTO FARREN
