Greystone Manor, Jaimie and Hans

Hans and Jaimie had a whirlwind romance and a fairytale wedding at the exclusive Greystone Manor in beautiful Cape Neddick, Maine. Moment after moment spilled out in front of me at this wedding and I had no choice but to keep photographing! This event had gorgeous flowers, wonderful food, romantic seaside service and a luxurious tented reception. To my delight guests were given much more time than the typical wedding to mill the property, play horse shoes, ladder ball, check out the World Cup Game on the tube and sit by the ocean during a lengthy cocktail hour. It was magical and refreshing. The wedding matched the couple. Hans is strong and fun and now a rock to the dragonfly, sprite-like Jaimie. I had a great time at this wedding with the couple’s friends and family. Congrats to you all on a great day!

Hans grabbed Jaimie and spun her around after they said I do. Love this captured moment! Favorite of the day!

Hans and his groomsmen, alone with the fathers, saved their suits for the service.

Jaimie presents the dress to her friends.

Jaimie looking lovely with those blue eyes!

Love the bridesmaid’s blue dresses and brown sandals.

Love the light in this image as Jaimie walks down to start her day!

Great moment as Jaimie’s Dad sees her for the first time. One of my favorite shots of the day.

Jaimie and her father make their walk down. Jaime see Hans in the distance.

Really lovely site for a Maine wedding. Love the large party here along the water.

Jamie and Hans exchange rings. Look at the wedding arch behind the couple. Hans made that with drift wood.  Nice!

Just like this shot and angle of the ring bearer.

Jamie and Hans kiss and celebrate!

Love this small moment after the kiss!

Jaimie and Hans married! Love Jaimie’s face of ahhhhh!

Love the gals at this wedding! Thanks for making me an honorary, umm, you know.

Love this shot of: bring on the party.

Jaimie’s flowers were gorgeous. Here, her bouquet.

Jaimie’s super long veil blew around during portraits but it was fun!

First dance. Hans and Jaimie are very lovey and sweet.

Hans and Jaimie love for nature and animals made for a great wedding theme. Their cake was a three tiered tree stump… and I love the carving here on the cake.

Jaimie is a person that feels everything. She laughs hard, cries hard and plays hard. She is a walking heart. And on her wedding day, that made for beautiful emotional images— especially during the toasts. Here, she laughs at her sisters. (Melissa, you were awesome all day!)

And here, she cries at her father’s toast. Love that when she cries, Hans reacts too. This is a favorite image of mine!

Jaimie shows off her preferred footwear— her Converse All*Stars.

Jaimie was very happy with these on the rocky beach.

Jaimie and her father dance.

There were a lot elephants in the room! Jaimie and Hans first met as neighbors but then spent their time volunteering with elephants in Shri Lanka. These held their rings nicely for me!

Hans and Jaimie are both fun, fearless dancers so we got plenty of images on the dance floor too!

The sunset that night. Wonderful.
