Destination | An Ethereal Sunrise Elopement at Acadia National Park

When Dallas & Kelsie approached me about capturing their elopement at Acadia National Park in Maine, I was absolutely overjoyed. We met shortly before sunrise atop Cadillac Mountain the day of the ceremony. The only guests in attendance were myself, a local officiant, and my mother who acted as the second witness. The slowly rising sun among the low hanging clouds was such a magical sight to see. A pink glow backlit the couple as I went to work capturing the ceremony and portraits on the mountain top. We then traveled to Jordan’s Pond to capture portraits along the lakeside. It was absolutely stunning, easily one of the most profound, ethereal elopements I’ve ever captured. I don’t cry, but watching the sun rise over the water even brought tears to my eyes.
