When most people think about Labor Day weekend, they think about BBQ's, boating, and.... let's admit it.... beer. Also, this is the weekend when most women pack up their white shorts and admit that summer is over. Well, Michelle wore white this past weekend for her wedding, and let me say that she ended summer in style!
I originally met Michelle and London a few months ago after they received my business card from their reception hall. After meeting with them, I knew this would be a fun wedding to do. Michelle and London both had a very relaxed feel about them and knew what they wanted. (Which makes my job quite easy!).
So, early afternoon on September 5th, I arrived at the Courtyard Marriott in Waterbury to find the bride, Michelle, quite cool in her heels, or should I say... slippers! The rest of the day was relaxed, with of course the occasional and expected snafu's. The weather was beautiful despite the expected hurricane that conveniently re-routed itself instead of crashing the party and gave us amazing sunlight and just the right amount of clouds.
And now, for the pictures!

So I know this is a cigarette pack, but I have to honestly say
it is one of my favorite images from the day. |

| Remember those clouds? These are them! |
There is one thing I failed to mention before. Michelle and London decided to have the ceremony inside the gazebo in the garden. Well, while it is quite a picturesque setting, it isn't the easiest obstacle to work around to take pictures! So, during the ceremony, I found the best photo spot possible..... standing in a bush! So while everyone was standing in the gazebo admiring the couple, I was taking pictures paparazzi -style with my zoom lens, large flash, and sunglasses while standing between two bushes. For the record, It was
completely worth it!

After the ceremony, London told me that he gave me
one chance to get a good picture of him, I think I got it! |
 |
| And of course I managed to get a fabulous one of both of them. |
This series of 3 images really says more than I could ever explain. Just the "sass" that Michelle expresses is priceless!
 |
| Favorite action shot of the night! |
 |
| And now, for Michelle's "What 'cha gonna do about it"? face. |
 |
| I'd say both London and Michelle got each other quite well. |

The poor ring-bearer, Gage, was wiped out from the festivities.
He worked hard blowing bubbles as the bride and groom recessed from their ceremony! |
London and Michelle, thank you so much for inviting me to be part of your special day. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed taking them!
