ACADIA ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR NATURE_-LOVING COUPLES
(and the Families They Bring With Them)
Relaxed, intentional wedding days rooted in connection, flexibility, and real moments.
So you want to bring your kids (or family) with you?
I LOVE that!
Eloping in Acadia National Park doesn’t have to mean leaving your people behind or forcing everyone into a rigid, unrealistic timeline. Instead, embrace it as a slower, more meaningful way to get married that makes space for real life, shared adventure, and genuine connection.
As your Acadia elopement photographer, I help couples create thoughtful, low-key elopement days that feel manageable, adventurous, and true to who they are, whether that includes babies, pets, grandparents, or just a few of your favorite people.
This isn’t your typical wedding day
It’s an invitation to slow down.
To be present with the people you love.
To get married in a place that actually means something to you and to create beautiful memories.
It doesn’t have to be rushed.
It doesn’t have to be complicated.
Let it feel like you!

Hey, I’m Gina!
I’m a Maine-based Acadia elopement photographer specializing in family-friendly intimate weddings rooted in connection, adventure, and ease.
I believe your wedding day should never feel like a performance but instead like a sweet adventure, one where kids are welcome, plans are flexible, and real moments get to lead.
Living on Mount Desert Island year-round means I know Acadia inside and out, from quiet coastal corners to mossy forest trails and dramatic granite cliffs.
With thoughtful planning, backup plans, and a calm, grounded presence, I help families create wedding days that feel relaxed, intentional, and deeply true to who they are.
“Gina, oh my goodness I cannot thank you enough!!!!! I had the most perfect wedding day!”
This is for you if:
You want an elopement that includes your kids, without forcing them to perform
You care more about experiencing the day than following tradition
You value flexibility, flow, and real moments over rigid timelines
You want to explore Acadia at a pace that works for your whole family
You want your day to feel as good as it looks
You’d rather have support and guidance than figure it all out alone
You want local insight to help you choose the right locations, vendors and flow
You’re celebrating a vow renewal with the family you’ve built
“[The photos] are so wonderful! Captured the day perfectly. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️”
Worried bringing your kids will take away from your day?
If you want your kids there, their presence won’t take away from the experience - it will enhance it in the best possible way.
Kids bring spontaneity, laughter, and moments you could never plan. Those often become the most meaningful parts of the day.
Yes, including family adds another layer to planning, but that’s where I come in.
I help you choose locations that work well for everyone, build flexible timelines with breathing room, and create backup plans so nothing feels stressful if things shift (because they sometimes do).
When the logistics are handled with intention, you’re free to slow down, stay present, and actually enjoy your wedding day.
Here’s how this works
1. Reach Out
Fill out the inquiry form and share what you’re dreaming up. Whether it’s a fully formed plan or just a general vibe you’re going for, we’ll start there.
2. Connect + Dream It Up
We’ll hop on a no-pressure call to get to know each other and start shaping your day. We’ll talk locations, timing, and the kind of experience you want to have and who you want to share it with.
3. Make It Official
After our call, I’ll send over a simple proposal with everything you need to book. A signed contract and retainer secures your date.
4. Show Up + Soak It In
When your day arrives, you get to be fully present! You and your love taking it all in while I document it as it unfolds.
More than just photos…
Planning an elopement in Acadia National Park, especially one that includes kids, pets or family, comes with a lot of moving parts. My role goes far beyond documenting your day.
I help you design an experience that feels calm, intentional, and genuinely enjoyable for everyone involved.
That includes:
Location guidance based on your vision and accessibility needs
Timeline planning that works with energy levels, light, and weather
Built-in flexibility so nothing feels rushed
Backup plans for Maine’s ever-changing conditions (bonus of my being local - I’m always happy to shift to another day if you prefer!)
Support with permits, logistics, and trusted local vendors
You don’t have to figure this all out on your own.
You get to stay present, connected, and focused on what actually matters - getting married and sharing that experience with the people you love.
