Michelle and Lance planned a great wedding in southern Connecticut which I was excited to have been asked to photograph. I started the day at a Holiday Inn Express in Branford, going back and forth between rooms to capture images of everyone getting ready, after which we made our way to the WoodWinds Banquet Facility for the ceremony and reception. Here are some photos from the day…

- While getting ready, Lance got a congratulatory call from a friend stationed in Tikrit, Iraq.
- In another part of the hotel, Michelle was in her own room getting ready with her bridesmaids.

- What began as a cute moment changed quickly into annoyance. She swatted at me but missed. I win.
- Michelle’s emotions began to come to the surface when she had a few minutes to herself while leaving for the reception hall.
- Michelle and her Maid of Honor were really happy at how the cake and the rest of the room where the reception was to be held came out.
- A little tantrum before the ceremony. She quieted down before the processional, though.
- A view of the ceremony while peeking out from my hiding spot.
- The first kiss.
- Lance and Michelle made faces at one another as I was getting ready to make a portrait.
- A Quick Portrait.
- Michelle really held onto Lance during the first dance.
- I loved this great moment between the two of them.

- These two little redheads spun ’round and ’round, running in big circles, captivating the whole room for the duration of the song.
- A few chuckles between Michelle and Lance after the cake cutting.
- Lance’s father watched from the side while he shared a dance with his mother.
- Lots of dancing and fun that night.

- A final, romantic moment at the end of the night.
