Default wordpress editor adding

Hi Support ,
The default editor adding br tag after each HTML tag starting from next line . I am pasting HTML from the webpage in the HTML view of editor .
pasting this code :-
‘<div class=”page page_2″>
<div class=”column grid_4 photo”>
<img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/images/ruth.jpg” alt=”Ruth” height=”280″ width=”280″>
<h4>Ruth Tate</h4>

</div>
<div class=”column grid_4 photo”>
<img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/images/tyler.jpg” alt=”Tyler” height=”280″ width=”280″>
<h4>Tyler Tate</h4>

<div class=”column grid_4″>
<h4>Reportage + Editorial</h4>
<p>Our approach is a synthesis of reportage and editorial
photography. We are constantly after the candid moments that capture the
emotions you will forever want to remember. But we also want you and
your new spouse to feel like your wedding is straight out of a fashion
magazine.</p>
<p>We are a wife and husband team thrilled at the opportunity of
being part of your special day. We came to London from Kentucky in 2008
and, while we now work primarily out of London, we still make it back to
Kentucky every now and again.</p>
