About Maine Rogue Photographers Association

The State of Maine, located as far northeast as you can go in the USA, is incredibly photogenic. Wide open ocean in one direction, forests in another, majestic mountains in a third, it is little wonder we have so many landscape photographers in this state! And yet just out of frame is a trailer home with twenty rusting cars surrounding it guarded by an alcoholic with a shotgun. Just past the trailer is a multi-million dollar mansion owned by a New York City lawyer who stays there two weeks out of the year. Maine is a place of contradictions, where incredible beauty lives 180 degrees from utter despair. It is a place that people live because they love it here, or because they're trapped here.

We're Maine's Rogue Photographers. We see what the tourists don't see. We know there's more to photographing Maine than landscape photography, and we're not afraid to share it.



UPDATE: We are doing a little refocusing here at the MRPA. All submissions must be approved by the administration before they will show up in the pool. We just want to make sure that all sunsets have rusted out cars in front of them and any lighthouses are falling into the sea! (Okay, so I'm overstating a little, but you get my point.) We will also be weeding out the pool of photos a little. PLEASE DON'T BE OFFENDED if something of yours is removed. We are just refocusing a little. Maybe you have some thing else in your photostream that is more in line with what we are trying to do! Try posting something else! Thanks everyone for your patience and Happy Shooting!
