Camp Jordan, Maine
Wedding Photography Guide
Camp Jordan in Ellsworth is the ultimate destination for couples who want a wedding that feels like a nostalgic summer retreat. Located on the shores of Branch Lake, this venue is all about community, campfires, and lakeside fun. As a Maine wedding photographer, I love the relaxed energy of a Camp Jordan wedding—it’s less about the "production" and more about the authentic joy of friends and family coming together in the woods.
My Thoughts
I am a huge fan of the "wedding weekend" vibe here. Having guests stay on-site in cabins creates such a tight-knit atmosphere. The large covered porch is a lifesaver for moody Maine weather, and the dining hall has that classic camp charm that looks amazing in photos. It’s the perfect spot for the couple who wants to end their night with s'mores and a lake jump!
Favorite Photo Spot
The dock on Branch Lake is the place to be. Whether it’s for a first look or sunset portraits, the vastness of the lake and the dramatic Maine sky never disappoint. I also love the "camp road" leading into the forest for some tall-tree portraits that feel very secluded and intimate.
Nearby Food
While in Ellsworth, you have to visit Fogtown Brewing Company. They have incredible wood-fired pizzas and some of the best craft beer in the state. It’s got a great local vibe that fits perfectly with the Camp Jordan aesthetic.
