Chelsea & Matt with Portland Head Light peeking through in the background (Fort Williams Park, Cape Elizabeth).
Chelsea & Matt were married at The Spurwink Church in Cape Elizabeth this past weekend. The Spurwink Church is quintessential New England: historic, elegantly simple and absolutely beautiful. It is one of our favorite ceremony locations and it was a pleasure to support Chelsea, Matt and their family this past Saturday!

Matt is a chef, so it was fitting that the wedding favors would be bottles of infused olive oil.

Matt & Chelsea, my face still hurts from laughing so much! From limos breaking down to weather rolling in and Plan B photo locations, we made it work and I had so much fun with you and all your family and friends. Thanks for making me feel so welcome, for opening up your homes to me, and letting me laugh with your wedding party and allowing me to capture your wonderful story. Your wedding was AWESOME!!
Christy - Wow! What a wedding classic and beautiful but then look out the dance party erupts. Great work capturing everything and all the emotions! Spectacular!
Sarah Hansen - Beautiful! I just love the bride with her granddad.
Cooper C Dragonette - We were in Fort Williams that day too! Sorry we missed seeing you!
Laurie - Just beautiful. Pictures captured intimate emotion of the moment as well as the celebration. Lovely!
Mary Ann Lynch - #best wedding pics ever! Great working with you, Mary Ann Lynch, mother of the groom.
Linda Cote - Absolutely gorgeous and you captured such tender moments. It was such a pleasure to meet you and work with you. Thank you for all the work to make this photos an heirloom for our family!!!
Chris Ward - Hi Mary Ann and Greg – Loved seeing Matt and his new bride – her dress was just beautiful. Can’t believe little Matt is married – I don’t think he’s changed a bit since high school. Always loved that kid and his quick humor. And John’s family is so cute. You guys have a lot to be proud of. But where have the years gone. Our wedding was an eye opener – saw the pictures from the photographer and there were none of my sisters, brother, friends. Assumed the guy would take pics of tables, etc. but no. I’ll definitely have more input when Chris or Jamie gets married (altho Jamie says never). Love to you all – Linda
Maureen Harkin - Great wedding photos. Congrats again to the lovely couple and the parents of the bride and groom!
