We did  a 5-minute run to the waterfront in Southport and I'm so glad we fit it in for a special few moments and pictures pre-wedding:

The band was Eight To The Bar and there were some amazing swing dancers including Leslie's sister…I have never seen a couple dance so fast:

Thanks so much for having us and thank you for sharing so much of yourselves with us…we loved capturing and being a part of your story!

There was so much happiness and love at this wedding…we were so honored to be there .  Susan got ready at her childhood home in West Hartford with her sisters, her mom and family.  I loved seeing the bedroom she grew up in…the bed was so small and it seemed so sweet that she slept in it the night before her wedding.

I loved how Susan's eyes filled with light in this picture:

Shannon wanted to get married on the 18th hole and having it happen at sunset was beautiful light:

The flowers by The Flower District in Glastonbury were so beautifully done and fresh that I kept smelling them as I walked around.  The tables were done in silver.
