Robert Dennis loves this town. In recent years his photographs of the Kennebunks
have appeared just about everywhere – including here. Following is just a sample
of the artist’s ever-expanding collection of photos from the scenic Maine fishing
village and summer home even to a president.

The Kennebunks, Maine
14 images on two web pages
Official Web Site Purchase calendars, books, prints
Robert Dennis succumbed to the Kennebunkport allure and bought his second home
there over a decade ago. An avocational photographer with a passion for the Maine
coast, Dennis moonlights as a mutual fund manager from Massachusetts. His photos
are available in local galleries and can be seen in guidebooks, postcards and
even Yankee magazine. We first met him when he supplied cover shots for our South
Coast Maine video "101 Highlights".
"To me," Robert says, "the Kennebunks represent the best that the Maine coast
has to offer -- the architectural treasure of historic sea captains' homes, a
quintessential working fishing village, a vital riverway."
Land travelers must arrive at Kennebunkport along the twisting seaside route,
and it's best to park and walk among the shops, restaurants and historic sites.
But first, scan this all-season sketchpad of local images, and featuring Cape
Porpoise too.. -- JDR
