Do want to explore and photograph Maine? Join Slonina Photography on a photo tour and workshop to this beautiful state. Maine has several incredible photographic opportunities. We will photograph its dramatic rocky coast, pounding surf, lighthouses, wildlife, and quaint fishing harbors and coves.
We have several different photo tours and workshops covering the Maine Coast from Kittery to Lubec. We have charted boats taking out to photograph puffins, seals, lighthouses, and whales.
Photographing the Maine Coast is a journey. With more coastline than California (3,478 miles), it takes some time to view the entire Maine Coast. The State of Maine is larger than the other 5 New England states combined. We will photograph the spectacularly scenic Maine Coast in sections. Get off the beaten path and explore the nooks and crannies of this remarkable coast. This area is well know for it's panoramic water views, lighthouses and lobsters.
Acadia National Park
The first rays of dawn illuminate the West Quoddy Lighthouse each morning before reaching any other point in the U.S. The West Quoddy Lighthouse of Lubec is the eastern most lighthouse in the country, and the Bold Coast in which it lies belongs to Maine’s DownEast and Acadia. Since Maine is the first state to rise each morning, we consider it our duty to make every day extraordinary. Visit Maine’s Downeast and Acadia region to see just how well we deliver on this promise.
Rising up from the coastal city of Bar Harbor, the beauty of Acadia’s Cadillac Mountain is like no other. There’s the clear blue Atlantic Ocean and its bays, with tree-lined mountains that rise triumphantly from the water along the coast as far as the eye can see. On a clear day atop this mountain, you’ll be able to see nearly 100 miles.
Surrounded by this much natural beauty, your spirit is buoyed, your heart content. You’re encircled on all sides by the 20 mountaintops of Mount Desert Island, the 120 miles of hiking trails in Acadia National Park and 55 miles of Rockefeller-built carriage roads, hidden by the color-soaked trees below.
It is a photography enthusiast’s paradise and offers its visitors unparalleled photo opportunities, as well as an ideal location for relaxing nature appreciation.
Maine’s Downeast & Acadia Region is full of surprises: unexplored scenic byways, a boat ride across the Bay to photograph puffins and whales and encounters with other Maine wildlife.
We also have a photo tour and workshop covering Mid Coast Maine. Wedged between the environs of Portland and the great outdoors of Acadia National Park, Maine’s midcoast region has long enthralled photographers with its quaint towns and pastoral, pine-lined roads. The tranquil harbors and craggy beaches along U.S. 1 offer settings as quintessentially Maine as can be. Lighthouses dot the headlands of Maine's Mid-Coast region, where thousands of miles of coastline wait to be explored. Defined by chiseled peninsulas stretching south from U.S. 1, this area has everything from the sandy beaches and sandbars
