Hi! I’m Garrick Hoffman, a professional photographer and lifelong Mainer.

I’ve been a professional photographer since 2017, starting my career in photojournalism for a variety of free newspapers in southern Maine.

Since my career began, I’ve expanded my creative horizons significantly: I now specialize in weddings, events, portraits, and lifestyle photography. I also love capturing the beauty of Maine & beyond, with canvas and framed prints of my landscape photography available for purchase here on my e-store.

In recent years, I’ve won three awards through the Appalachian Mountain Club (1st, 2nd, & 3rd Place, 2021-2023), had my work featured in TIME Magazine, won an award through the Maine Press Association for my work in the Maine Monitor, photographed cultural figures like Paris Hilton and Maine native Patrick Dempsey (a.k.a. “McDreamy”), and more.

My clients are generally quite diverse, ranging from the commercial to the individual. On the commercial side, I’ve recently worked with agencies like Blaze Partners in Yarmouth, nonprofits like the Appalachian Mountain Club and the Maine Mineral & Gem Museum, and corporate clients like L.L. Bean and Smith & Wilkinson, to name a few. I also occasionally do photojournalism, chiefly for the Maine Monitor, Northern Woodlands Magazine, and even recently for the Bangor Daily News.
