A fabulous small wedding in Estes Park in October with a couple from Ames. Tony and Alanna traveled from Iowa to have a gorgeous wedding in Colorado among the changing yellow aspen leaves. They invited their families to join them and rented a “cabin” that was really much better than any cabin I’ve ever seen! I arrived for some photos of Alanna getting ready, photographed their beautiful ceremony with Long’s Peak in the background, then we headed out for some portraits among the gorgeous scenery, some of which was at Rocky Mountain National Park! Thanks so much for including me in such a beautiful and intimate occasion!

Chocolate covered strawberries for their families and guests waiting while we took some portraits!

The groom left a card on the pillow for his bride to read before the ceremony!

A view down the hallway. I love the gorgeous light!

A beautiful pavilion built on the property just outside the house provided he perfect spot for the ceremony. All this with Long’s Peak in the background!

Beautiful calla lilly bouquet.

Purple wedding shoes! I love it. I’m a sucker for gorgeous wedding shoes!
