Colorado Mountain Resort Wedding at Lunch Rock, Winter Park Resort

Blayke and Jason’s fall mountain resort wedding at Lunch Rock, Winter Park Resort, was the perfect mix of romance and adventure. High in the mountains, their special day embraced all the best parts about the fall season with warm tones, breathtaking views, and the most gorgeous golden-hour light. Everything about their celebration was so effortlessly elegant yet deeply personal, from their heartfelt vows at the mountain’s peak to the cozy, love-filled reception. Weddings like this are why I seriously love what I do, and I can’t wait to share more of the incredible details from their day!

Fall Colors, Stunning Views, and Unmatched Celebration

Blayke and Jason’s mountain-top wedding was part of an unforgettable double-header weekend for me, starting at Winter Park Resort and ending with an elopement at Maroon Bells. Colorado’s fall foliage was at its peak during the drive, giving every moment those dreamy autumn colors. Their ceremony backdrop was hands down one of the most breathtaking ones I’ve ever captured—it felt like stepping into a postcard! Working with their talented videographer friends from Arizona made the day even more special, and their sunset portraits by the gondola? Pure MAGIC, with their veil and the golden sun perfectly aligning like cinematic stars. Then, to top it all off, their dance floor came alive with a super lively band and endless energy. It was exhausting by the end of it, but an absolutely incredible weekend I’ll never forget, reminding me why I love this job so much! Somebody pinch me!

The Bride and Groom’s Reactions to the Photos

From Jason, the groom, who's a journalist and does photojournalism sometimes:

"We are so grateful we found you so early in your Colorado journey. Feels like we wouldn't be able to book you now!!! You're incredibly talented. I truly mean it. I've worked around a lot of incredibly talented photographers and you know I shoot myself, even if I am not the greatest. You're really great, and we picked you because we knew how good you are. You're well beyond your age. You're going to rock this industry."

His kind words literally made me cry!

From Blayke, the bride:

"Screaming, crying, throwing up!!!!!"

"So obsessed. You're an angel! I know it's been such a crazy busy season for you, but we're so grateful for you"

"We've been going through the photos off and on for hours. It's so so special having these memories forever. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

We recently crossed paths again at one of their friends’ weddings, and it felt like such a full-circle moment. They couldn’t stop sharing how much they loved their wedding photos, and their mom even mentioned how special the physical album I sent was to their family. We snapped a couple of selfies together—just like we did at their wedding—and Jason joked it’s officially a tradition now, lol. Our connection has been so genuine that they’ve referred me to their friends, who then passed my name along to even more couples. It’s been such a heartwarming chain of connections! I feel so blessed!
