Michael and Haley
Ten Mile Station
Breckenridge, Colorado
September 25, 2010
Haley and Michael had the perfect fall day for their wedding! The weather was warm, the aspens were at their autumn peak, and we had clear blue skies all day. They got married at Ten Mile Station, which sits halfway up a ski run in Breckenridge. Breck is my favorite ski resort, and I've skied past this venue dozens of times. It's always fun to see it when it's not surrounded by snow.

I loved this moment between Haley and Pierre!

During the toasts
First dance
Dancing with his mother. Now that I'm expecting a boy, the mother-son dance always chokes me up.

Michael was hilarious during the garter toss! The DJ played the theme song for Indiana Jones, and Michael came out in fitting costume before searching for the garter.
He found all kinds of traps under that dress: chains, rope, mousetrap, and other obstacles to the garter.
