What a wonderful first wedding of the season!  A beautiful day and a truly nice couple.  Thank you Katie and Michael for everything!

Katie got ready at her parents’ home in Farmington:

Katie’s mom helped her get dressed:

This is one of my favorite photos of the day…I loved the style and colors of their home with the style/color of the dresses:

Katie and Michael got married at St. Patrick’s in Farmington.  The anteroom was beautifully lit for those few minutes before they ceremony begins:

We shot the family portraits in front of the church then were very close to Miss Porter’s School for Girls, which is perfectly New Englandy for a mini-street shoot with the bridal party:

Then it was on to The Pickin’ Patch in Avon.  I actually pick fruit there in the summer and thought it would have a number of great backgrounds … I love that when we showed up Katie and Michael had brought these great boots for braving the fields!

Meanwhile, Mike went ahead to Tower Ridge Country Club to shoot the details. 

Here is my favorite:

The Stroll and the Conga were dancing highlights!
