What a wonderful wedding for Memorial Day Weekend- Martha and Eliot are both Naval Aviators who met each other at Brunswick Naval Air Station. Even though their recent posts have kept them far apart (although now that the wedding is over they are finally going to be stationed together in Virginia!), they have an amazing relationship which was so much fun to photograph. They were married at Fort Knox in Maine and held their reception at the beautiful Retreat at French’s Point in Stockton Springs, Maine. They had a beautiful Sperry Tent at the water’s edge, and they finished the night with both fireworks AND sparklers! Martha and Eliot had several surprises for each other- Martha surprised Eliot with cannon fire during the ceremony, and Eliot surprised Martha with an antique post-ceremony car and an antique Mack Truck for a getaway vehicle! It was an amazing day! Here are a few of my favorite photographs from the day:

These beautiful pictures capture the many magical moments of the amazingly beautiful wedding of our lovely neice, Martha to her charming groom, Eliot. So glad we were able to be there with our children! Perfect from start to finish!
It was such a pleasure working with Martha and her friends & family! The love she has for Eliot just shines through her beautiful eyes. It was the perfect day for a perfect couple. Many blessings to them both!
Lovely! They had some of the cutest, unique details!
