    Amazing Wedding Photography

    Highly Recommend Maine Mountain Media. We used them for our wedding and their package is very reasonable. It comes with 2 professional photographers and an engagement photo shoot. Having 2 photographers was key. It allowed one to stay with us girls and the other with the guys while getting ready in different locations. Also, seeing the moments from different angles was really nice. We can't say enough great things about Paul and Spencer!

    Professional, talented, reliable, fun photographers !!

    Stop your photographer search right now if you want magazine-worthy wedding photos!!! Paul and Spencer captured our day in the most stunning manner. From the getting ready shots, to intimate couple photos around the venue - each moment is vivid and lively - a style which we love and initially drew us to their work. As an added bonus they incorporate their passion of landscape photography within some shots which really highlight the venue - in our case stunning shots of us frolicking in rolling vineyard vines.

    They are talented and experienced photographers - they arrived at our venue the day of the wedding and immediately assessed the best locations and shots based on time of day, lighting, weather, cloud cover, etc. They strike the perfect balance of providing direction and guidance (to bride, groom, wedding party etc.) but also letting natural moments happen and capturing them. They also work closely with you ahead of time to ensure any group photos you want are accounted for on day-of.

    Post-wedding, Paul & Spencer worked efficiently - they made us feel like we're the only wedding client they have - we could hardly believe we received a 20-image sneak peak before the end of our wedding weekend! Then the next 100 images shortly after, followed by all 800 digital hi-res album within THREE WEEKS!! I don’t know how they do it.

    Beyond a superior end-product in the photos - Paul and Spencer are some of the best people you’ll meet. Their vibes were immaculate - we had so much fun working with them from our initial zoom consultation, to the engagement shoot in Portsmouth, down to the wedding day. They are professional, reliable, responsive, and organized, yet have a fun and relaxed energy that is infectious. It helped put me (and my husband who hates taking photos!!!) fully at ease in front of the camera. They made our experience enjoyable- which in turn resulted in beautifully authentic wedding photos which we will cherish for years to come.

    The BEST time, with the BEST photos!

    Both Spencer and Paul are a great time to shoot with! Engagement photos are included with their wedding package, and yheyvwere a great opportunity to get to know the guys/ how they work. We had such a good time with them for that first shoot and were so excited to have them as our wedding photographers!

    The day was spent goofing off, and just doing our thing with absolute trust in these guys to capture our best unscripted moments. And they did so beautifully! We have gotten a bunch of photos back so far and we are BEYOND happy and impressed. It looks like we're in a studio! Maine Mountain Media was thorough, honest, fun, and a pleasure to work with!

    Spencer and Paul are awesome to work with in all aspects of the wedding process. They are a pleasure to work with and take amazing pictures for a very reasonable price given the quality of their work and service. Can't recommend highly enough!

    Spencer & Paul were phenomenal! We could not have asked for better photographers. When rain was forecasted, they had a plan. When it turned out sunny and we switched order of things, they were flexible. When the power went out, they set up extra flashes and still managed to get fully lit photos of the dancefloor. They even went above & beyond and helped pick up tables and flower vases that had blown over. They were professional throughout, quick with setting up larger group shots, and are amazing at those Milky Way/prolonged exposures. For two people who don't like their photo taken, they made us feel comfortable, kept everyone laughing and relaxed through the day, and got the shots without feeling intrusive at all especially during the ceremony. We've gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos. Anyone would be truly lucky to have Maine Mountain Media as a part of their wedding day.

    Paul & Spencer of Maine Mountain Media were truly amazing. In addition to how easy it was to work with them and how comfortable they made us feel throughout the planning process, their day-of presence was incredible and the photos they took were breathtaking. All of our guests talked about how great they were at the wedding and we can't stop smiling looking at all of our photos. We would recommend them 100%.

    Spencer and Paul with Maine Mountain Media were amazing to work with! Our wedding was in Maine but we live in Florida and they were great to work with being that we had to plan everything via email and phone calls. They were so flexible and accommodating with all of our requests and really fit in with the relaxed setting we wanted for our wedding day. Our wedding photos were more stunning than we ever could have imagined and we were so lucky to have found them!!

    Paul and Spencer are incredible! They were responsive and so easy to work with from the moment we contacted them. Our pictures are absolutely perfect and we are so thankful for that. We were amazed at how fast we were able to see a sneak peak and then get all of our photos two weeks later. They made our picture taking experience comfortable and easy. They were very efficient with taking our first look, wedding party and family pictures before the ceremony, which gave us more time to enjoy ourselves and party. Choosing a wedding photographer that is affordable and produces amazing results can be stressful, but you cannot go wrong with these two! We highly recommend them to anyone!

    Paul and Spencer are incredibly passionate about what they do and this was reflected in every photo they took at our wedding. They captured the most beautiful moments! They were creative and made us feel relaxed and comfortable - allowing each moment to develop naturally. We highly recommend working with them!

    We can't say enough about Spencer and Paul. Not only is their photography absolutely stunning and of the highest quality, they were also so easy and enjoyable to work with. They were by far our favorite vendor and we would highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

    Review of Maine Mountain Media
    My wife and I hired Paul Friedman and Spencer Mendell for our wedding. I must say that the pictures that we received were tremendous. Spencer and Paul are really amazing at their craft. Not only were the pictures outstanding, Paul and Spencer were not invasive in taking them. They captured pictures of the event without being noticeable. During the ceremony especially they were not disturbing the experience, trying to get the shot at the expense of the moment. They knew when to ask for set shots and taking candid ones. Spencer and Paul were also very pleasant and professional in every interaction. I highly recommend their services.

    I don't know how I can put into words how incredible these two guys are- both as people and as photographers. They took our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures and were always professional, compassionate, fun, and flexible. They always made us feel so comfortable that even my husband (husband! amazing!) who never wants his picture taken was into it. If you want beautiful pictures that are full of love and fun, Paul and Spencer are the guys to choose. I feel so lucky that we were able to have them at our wedding. Seriously- the best of the best. I can't imagine our wedding without them and they have given us the most gorgeous images of the best day of our lives.

    If you tell Spencer and Paul what pictures you want taken and with whom, you will get exactly what you asked for and more. They have a very artistic eye for unique still life shots as well, which was a surprise bonus when we received the photos.

    Spencer was amazing and a saving grace, on our wedding day (and weekend, for that matter). Not only was he available to take pictures for our wedding, but he also was available for any last minute requests, like taking pictures at the courthouse when we picked up our Marriage License and also during the Rehearsal Dinner with family. He also helped us clean up the reception area by grabbing a broom and sweeping the dance floor! The pictures came out better than I could have EVER imagined! MMM= 5 stars!!!

    It was such a pleasure working with Spencer and Paul, from the very beginning to the end. We lived out of state and they were so flexible with meetings and very good about responding to all our questions . They did such an amazing job capturing our wedding on film. They are also just great guys in genera and everyone felt so comfortable having them around during filming. We highly recommend them to anyone who's looking for a fantastic, through and well done project. We are so greatful for the beautiful memories they have given to us.

    These guy were amazing! They were professional, efficient, fun, and very organized. Our family was super impressed with how efficient they were with getting those big family photos done, and getting them done well! They were very receptive to any shots we wanted- whether it was with certain people or certain poses. With that being said, my husband and I didn't really come ready with many ideas. Thankfully, they had a great vision and got some amazing shots. We are so thrilled with the results. Our entire photography experience was fun, comfortable, and easy. We HIGHLY recommend them!

    Spencer was so amazing to work with! I have known him for about 20 years and had no idea that he was this talented! The wedding video he put together was PERFECT. It was everything my husband and I could have wanted. He caught all the right moments and the music he paired with it was great! He also put it together so quickly! We had the video less than a month after our wedding. Our family and friends are still raving about how amazing the video came out! I would 100% recommend Spencer and Maine Mountain Media to anyone getting married, they make amazing videos! And take amazing photos!

    Spencer from Maine Mountain Media was a guest at my wedding. His sister is actually my all-time-BFF. Unbeknownst to us Spencer worked as second shooter to our main photographer as a wedding gift to us.

    It was Maine Mountain Media's photo that ultimately became our favorite photo from the entire wedding- our first kiss! The lighting, the angle, perhaps the editing that I am unaware of- made it the most magical image of an incredible moment.

    We received our photos within a few short weeks and they were nothing short of perfect.

    To be totally honest, I think my husband is the most handsome person on the face of the planet but neither one of us are models. We are super uncomfortable in front of the camera and I'm not a size 4 5'10" blonde bomb shell- we're real people.

    Spencer has an eye for detail and a heart that makes you feel like the most beautiful person in the world.

    I can't recommend Spencer and Maine Mountain Media enough. They're professional. They're fun. They're extremely talented. I'm so thankful that they were with us on our special day.

    Perfect Photos

    Spencer & Paul were incredible photographers for our wedding. They actually strongly recommended engagement photos ahead of time (which were included in our package!) so that we could get to know each other and see what our preferences and goals were before the big day! As a planner, I loved this aspect because it made me feel more comfortable on the big day. The photos came back quickly after our wedding and we love EVERY picture. We couldn't have asked for more, they captured every moment and we will relive the memories of the day through the pictures for the rest of our lives!

    Having two photographers really made a difference in the variety of shots plus they also offer video that can be packaged together.
