Did you catch the Northern Lights in Maine recently?

Thanks to solar storms, Maine got another great light show! Our last one was in May when Izzy Bouchard (Izzy Bouchard Photography) caught the light show in Skowhegan. Izzy had never seen the aurora borealis before, and commented on her Facebook post,

Shout out to Camilla Jones for calling me to say the northern lights were out tonight! I’ve never seen them before and all I can say is DANG!

"Dang" is a good way to describe these pictures!

If she can capture the northern lights so well, imagine what your wedding pictures would look like!

How come my pictures of the Northern Lights in Portland, Maine didn't turn out well?

Were your colors muted, or barely showing up? It's a little thing called night vision on your phone. I have an iPhone, this is how you can find it on that device:

It's all about exposure to light. Let your phone do all the work. Sometimes your phone will be able to see the light show that your naked eyes couldn't see! I have gone most of my life chasing the Northern Lights. This recent show was my first one to see in person, and to actually capture myself!

It appears that we may have more chances. Just remember to set your phone in night mode and look up! Or scroll Facebook, because it was loaded with people who were lucky enough to catch the latest spectacle!
