About Craig
YEAH BUD:
"A phrase often used to describe one's intense agreement, acknowledgement, or pleasure. Used instead of saying "Yes", "I agree", "Awesome", "Great", or any number of positive-sounding adjectives."- Craig Derek Angevine is a photographer and a native Mainer (Yeah bud!) with over a decade of experience. His work brims with color, texture, and contrast. His constant attention to detail and experimental approach keeps each shoot fresh. Above all, Craig is great to work as his clients will testify.
- Craig is the recipient of several photography awards and has displayed his work in various publications and galleries. Weddings, portraiture, architectural, environmental, business, culinary, and fine art are a few of the genres encompassed by his portfolio. His clients have commented on how well Craig puts his subjects at ease with his friendly, inquisitive, passionate personality. His work has been described as vibrant yet unpretentious, and of a quality reflecting the essence of New England while maintaining a contemporary feel.
- In 2007 Craig completed his BA in creative writing at Bates College. He spent two years in Seattle, Washington where he worked at the Art Wolfe photo gallery and volunteered as a darkroom instructor at Youth in Focus, “an after school program that uses intensive photography training as a tool to help disadvantaged teens develop personal voice, positive identity, social skills and artistic skills.” Since then Craig has returned to his true home, Maine, to be closer to his family and create his business.
- In addition to Craig’s creative pursuits, he spends his time fly fishing, hiking, travelling, improving his carpentry skills, and chilling with the fam.

Cyndi & Kevin
"Craig was so much fun to work with and so creative. He piloted a kayak to get shots of us on the water and suggested an impromptu game of volleyball. We felt comfortable and relaxed and it showed. The photographs of our wedding are beautiful and truly 'us.' We can't thank him enough."
Melly & Matt
"Thanks to Yeah Bud! Photography we have memories that will truly last forever. On such an important day that seemed to run in fast forward, Craig was able to capture every little detail of our rustic fairy tale wedding in a most genuine way. He was fearless climbing through tall grass and the rugged mountain edge all to get the perfect shot! Yeah Bud! has given us the gift to remember what will remain one of the most exciting and important days in our lives!"

Alex & Joe
"Craig was amazing! I didn't want the typical wedding photos and was looking more for the little moments of the whole evening. He made us feel so comfortable that I didn't even notice he was there most of the time! The photos he took of us were so special I want to print all of them. The photos he got of our fireworks were the best I've ever seen! If you're looking for a photographer with a photo-journalism style, Craig is your guy! Highly-recommended, I can't say enough good things about Craig."
Kristen & Sarah
"Craig had the perfect balance of taking all the shots and poses we wanted and suggested while also getting some amazing photographs based on his creative artistic instincts. He was fun, knowledgeable, professional, and kept the whole thing light-hearted and happy! He had a great sense of what is involved in a wedding and how much there is going on and was very sensitive to that. He was a wonderful presence at the wedding and we have so many beautiful, artistic, professional photographs to create our album from! We 100% recommend Yeah Bud! photography for your wedding or event. Craig is all you could ask for!"
