Introduction: I've been told time and time again that my photographs reflect people having fun and being silly, and this is totally true. I don't believe in taking yourself too seriously. I want my clients to feel comfortable in front of my camera, and to consider me a friend rather than a hired vendor. Above all I love meeting new people and traveling! I get to meet people on a weekly basis -- sometimes just one client or a couple, sometimes an entire family, and sometimes an entire wedding guest list! It's so fascinating to hear about peoples' lives and connect with them, even if it's just for a short time. I also get to travel regularly all over New England, and occasionally other parts of the country -- so far I've been to NYC, Philadelphia, and New Orleans, with many more to come!

Justine shot our wedding and was so amazing I hired her again two years later for another shoot. What stands out most to me is her enthusiasm. She is so pumped up for any shoot she does, it carries through--in her emails, and in the photos she produces. While on the shoots, however, she's not over the top, which is great. She somehow manages to balance pure passion and joy and a calm demeanor. The quality of Justine's work is outstanding. Her colors pop, the composition is spot on, and she knows what to do. I would recommend her (and have) to anyone for any type of shoot you want--she'll do it! She also knows makeup artists and has great assistants. Hire Justine! You'll be glad you did!

My husband got me a Christmas gift of a boudoir shoot with Justine. He knew I had wanted to do one with her, but also knew I'd never spend the money on myself like that. To say that I was excited is an understatement. Justine did our one year wedding anniversary photos (which we also LOVED) and I've been faithfully stalking her photos ever since. All I had to do for the boudoir shoot was contact her to set up a day/time and she gave me a recommendation of a hair/make up artist (Jessica) if I wanted to go that route, which of course I wanted to do. Jessica was laid back, funny, confident and she did an incredible job on both hair and makeup. I wish I could do my makeup like that myself, but I am not that skilled! Justine's studio was extremely comfortable and helped put me at ease and calm some nervousness I had. I brought a TON of stuff since I had no idea what to wear/use and Justine went through everything with me helping to decided what would look best together. I even brought my bird vest (I hunt) and she LOVED the idea of having some fun with it. We laughed a lot during the shoot and that relaxed feeling really shows through the photos. She had great ideas for poses and encouraged me to come up with some of my own if I wanted. I got to see a few teasers just a few days after the shoot and I LOVE them. Her style is so vibrant, colorful and full of life so I'm not surprised! I have to tell you, I wish I had a time machine so I could hire Justine to shoot my wedding! I can't wait to see the rest of the boudoir photos and for the next time I get to work with her! Thanks Justine!

Working with Justine was truly a simple pleasure in the very best way! She is an artist with an immeasurable gift of relaxing her subjects, bringing out their unique style and attributes, while making the session fly by and being cognizant of people's needs and uses for her gorgeous and vibrant photos. I have perused her work from head shots to wedding photography, and have been consistently impressed by her professionalism, enthusiasm, connection to other local artists and community. Specifically, Justine and I worked together twice, once at her studio and other larger project off-site in Southern Maine. Timing depended on content, but she and I were incredibly communicative on expectations, and she went above and beyond. I would recommend her without reservation, and would be happy to answer any questions!

We are terribly disappointed with our experience with Justine and cannot imagine ever recommending her. Justine was booked well in advance to shoot a family reunion and had been paid over $300 upfront to secure her availability. On the day of the shoot she pulled out citing a family emergency. Fortunately we were able to agree a second date a week later. It wasn't ideal but we imagined it would be better than nothing. To our immense disappointment on the day of the rescheduled shoot and only a few hours before she was supposed to arrive - Justine canceled on us again. We feel terribly let down by Justine and are very upset at the situation.

Justine did an amazing job at a double newborn session with my son and my sister in law's daughter. Not only did the pictures turn out FANTASTIC, but she was super friendly and very patient everytime one of them needed a diaper change or needed to eat. :) She took her time and I'm so glad we can cherish these beautiful pictures for the rest of our lives. Thank you Justine!
