mattie and jes

So I didn't make any postcards but I found some great faces, and some particularly joyful faces.
We went to Isle au Haut, and it was beautiful. I had no batteries and lots of fog for the ceremony, so I stopped trying to record it and set about remembering it instead. It was outside, on the lawn of the house Jes grew up in, with all of us facing them and the water beyond and the little islands and ocean beyond that. The fog kept people from looking too far away, but made all the colors more intense.
In their vows, they married each other and the sea. I didn't expect that, but it makes sense. It makes explicit something about my brother that many people comment on - his connection to and requirement for the ocean. It turns out, it works in a similar way for Jes. So I think they will be OK. I hope they will be.
It was very, very fine.
Here are some pictures of the surroundings:
And now, some more face postcards.
