Kelly & Brant at the Esperanza Mansion
Posted on Aug 10th 2011 by Neil.
When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you’ll want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.
Click to play the show for the full wedding day laugh-a-palooza! Starting in the ‘attic’ at the Esperanza Mansion for this destination wedding in the finger lakes of New York. After hair disasters returned from the local salon was heroically able to re-do them in time. So we moved on to Saint Michaels Church at 210 Keuka Street in Penn Yan for the celebration of their marriage mass. Rain followed us, but God held up his end of his contract with me and pulled out the sunshine in time for portraits with the bride and groom atop the hills surrounding the lake. As we arrived at cocktail hour in the tent at Esperanza, you could feel the party energy building and we dove in like good obedient photojournalists and rode the wave all through the night!

Thanks Kelly & Brant for trusting me with your wedding – I know we met for the first time that morning, but I hope you see your trust has been rewarded with my insight into your wedding day.
Much Love
