Weddings at the Barn on Walnut Hill are romantic occasions held at one of Maine’s beautiful barn venues. Guests who attend Weddings at the Barn on Walnut Hill experience the serenity and grace that make a barn wedding in Maine truly exceptional. Bride and groom Bretton Neider and Ryan Hall were married on a bright summer day in June of 2014 at the Barn on Walnut Hill, located in North Yarmouth, Maine. This photo from the couple’s wedding day was taken later in the evening, in front of the barn where the reception was held. As Bretton and Ryan’s friends and family danced and laughed the night away inside the building, the pair shared a private moment outside as I took their portraits. The sky above is shaded a royal blue, with clouds floating overhead and making parts of it appear darker than others. The shape of the barn looms up behind the bride and groom, a dark silhouette against the deep blue of the night sky. The only lights in the image come from the small barn windows, and from the light that was intentionally placed to highlight the figures of Bretton and Ryan. The windows are filled with the warm glow of the lights from inside the building, and the happy sounds of the guests celebrating inside float out into the night and remind the newlyweds of the love that has been showered over them on this day. The bride and groom are seen in front of the barn door, dark silhouettes against the light that shines on their figures. It is an enchanting scene, one that looks like it could have been pulled from a storybook - and for Bretton and Ryan this is the beginning of a wonderful new chapter.
