Alison + Kade | Wedding at Lionscrest Manor | Lyons Colorado Photographer

January 24, 2023

On the same day I was photographing Sarah and Ben’s rainy A Basin wedding, my associate photographer was working with Alison and Kade. Maria captured their wedding at Lionscrest Manor, and as always, she did an amazing job. I thoroughly enjoyed editing the photos, and I really felt like I had been at the wedding too. I love all the emotion of the day! Especially the emotional bridesmaids during the getting ready photos. Alison’s dad’s reaction during their pre-ceremony “first look” was awesome too! His jaw literally dropped open when he saw his beautiful daughter as a bride. There were endless amounts of laughs and smiles during the ceremony as well. It seemed like a day abounding with joy and laughter, no doubt!

Aside from the sweet father-daughter first look previously mentioned, there were many other great aspects of Alison and Kade’s Lionscrest Manor wedding. Some favorites included Alison’s gorgeous bridal gown. It was timeless and classy…she looked amazing! The sheer back with buttons was so beautiful. The skirt was perfect for spinning and dancing. Maria was sure to have them do just that during their romantic couple’s portraits. I really loved all of their floral arrangements as well. The ceremony arrangements on the arbor and the bridal bouquet were especially well done. Finally, Alison and Kade did a surprise, choreographed “flash mob” dance with their bridal party. Guests were really surprised and absolutely loved it! It seemed like their reception was such a blast, enjoyed by all.

Maria captured a ton of great photos, but this is definitely one of my favorites from Alison and Kade’s wedding at Lionscrest Manor. I just love that view, the unexpected pose, and the soft colors in the sky!

Thanks so much Alison and Kade! Maria and I both enjoyed meeting and working with you both so much. I would love to have future opportunities to work together. Remember that I offer other types of photography for my clients…maternity, family, lifestyle newborn, etc. It would be wonderful to capture the other important milestones in life.
