Gisland Farm Audubon Wedding | Maine Wedding by Photographer Amy Salerno

May 31, 2013

Erin and Dave (you might remember their engagement session) put a lot of work into creating a romantic and vintage feel for their wedding at Gilsland Farm Audubon Center in Falmouth, Maine. They pulled it off with flying colors. The day was spectacular. From start to finish I saw love and joy and support for Erin and Dave.

Gilsland Farm has beautiful scenery and loads of wildlife — birds galore, adorable woodchucks, and a not so cuddly wild turkey.  The wedding ceremony was under the shade of the large trees (homes to the woodchucks) next to the Audubon Center.  The reception was held under a tent, and the party did not stop until late in the evening. As I was walking to my car at the end of the night I saw a full moon high in the sky above the still rocking tent. Not able to walk away from that without grabbing a few shots, I quickly pulled out my camera and shot a few exposures. It was a fun way to end a truly wonderful day.

Many thanks to Erin and Dave and to their family and friends for welcoming me so warmly and for giving me so many amazing moments to photograph. It was a true pleasure to work with everyone.

I had a hard time narrowing down this wedding for this blog post. But there’s still more to see in this slideshow.
