From my camera to publication. 📷

My photograph of Sand Beach in Acadia National Park was featured as #10 in Only In Your State’s roundup of beautiful U.S. destinations that feel like the Caribbean—this, and more Sand Beach photography is now available to license on Adobe Stock.

Photographed here in Maine on Mount Desert Island, it’s always fun to see where an image travels after I create it.

I was scrolling and clicked on this article that caught my interest and coincidentally one of my photos in the list!

Happy my photo is helping to tell the story about the beauty here in Maine!

I hadn’t set an alarm. I simply woke up at just the right time, grabbed my camera, and went outside. As the eclipse progressed, clouds began moving through the sky sometimes revealing the moon clearly, sometimes surrounding it and completely changing the scene.

Looking through the photographs afterward, I realized I didn’t just capture the eclipse. I captured the atmosphere of the night — the darkness, the clouds, the stars and those brief moments when everything seemed to line up.

Sometimes the photographs you never planned to take become the ones you’re most grateful you were there to make. 🌙✨

A mother and two fawns came by this morning and I caught this fawn having a playful moment with the dried plant and then acting like nothing just happened. Isn't it cute?
