Stephanie and Geoff’s wedding has been one of those weddings that’s almost impossible to blog because there are just so. many. pictures that I want to share!  I’ve been bursting at the seams with them actually and have shared a number over the last week on our facebook page because the awesomeness is pretty much exploding out of my computer at this point.  Stephanie and Geoff are just too sweet, too fun, and too in love!  Nic even awarded them the ‘cutest first look ever’ award after their tear-filled reunion outside the Mining Exchange Hotel.   Lots of super fun details to note here, too, like their INCREDIBLE wedding programs and the fun polaroid-type camera they used for the guest book that was a giant hit at the reception!

Did I mention that these two are athletes and incredibly photogenic?  I probably should have mentioned that.

We had their first look outside the Mining Exchange Hotel where everyone had gotten ready.  We then drove to Shove Chapel for portraits before the ceremony.  The day was beautiful, warm, and had lots of beautiful fall foliage:  jackpot!

And as if Stephanie didn’t have an incredibly sweet first look with Geoff, she went on to have another adorable first look with her dad outside Shove Chapel!

Stephanie and Geoff’s wedding party was absolutely amazing, too.  They were like the holy grail of wedding parties: fun, cooperative, up for anything, and a good looking bunch to boot!  The bridesmaids had yellow shoes and the groomsmen had yellow socks.  Stephanie asked for a few pictures to highlight that footwear awesomeness.  I was only too happy to oblige!

Shove Chapel is such an incredible ceremony venue!

We had the most incredible light after the ceremony for family portraits.  I would have married it if only I’d thought to bring along a marriage license.  (The light was so good I don’t think Nic would have faulted me.)

We ended the day with their reception at Phantom Canyon Brewery.

Stephanie and Geoff closed out the 2013 wedding season for us and we could not have wished for a more amazing wedding to end the year on!

Lauren deserves a Best Bride Ever award.  I was so looking forward to Lauren and Matt’s wedding, especially because she loves romantic backlit lighting as much as I do!  And then we woke up to a persistent drizzle and fog that stuck around all day without a break.  But Lauren handled it all like a champ.  You couldn’t have asked for anyone to handle the weather disappointment and logistical changes with more grace or a brighter smile!   Lauren and Matt were so wonderful to work with, and I wish them a lifetime of sunny days to make up for the rain on their wedding day!

Ashlee and Josh came to us last minute after a date mix-up with their original photographer, and we felt so lucky to be able to work with them!  Ashlee was the most incredible bride–going out of her way to make US feel comfortable–even planning to pick us up from a safe parking spot when she realized that the road to her getting ready location was washed out!  She is a total blast and so much fun and it didn’t surprise us at all that their wedding had the most number of friends of the bride and groom in attendance that we’ve ever seen!  They had the most incredible weather (especially after all of the rain we’ve had!) and there were so many awesome details, like Ashlee’s to die for boots!  It was such a treat to photograph their wedding day and we’re so glad we had the opportunity to work with Ashlee and Josh!
