Morrison Colorado Wedding Photography at Willow Ridge Manor

By apriloharephotography

This past Saturday we went up to Morrison for NickĀ & Dani’s wedding at the Willow Ridge Manor which is very close to Red Rocks. I met Nick & Dani early last year and have been excited for their wedding ever since. They were the cute couple who met during a fire alarm when they were giving blood at their school. All through the night I just kept thinking about how they were such a perfect match for each other.

Dani was cracking me up. She was so irritated with her garter which was apparently sucking the life out of her:) (so she put it below her knee instead!)

What a gorgeous girl! Such pretty green eyes! Nick is soooo lucky:)

Pretty location right?

I am obsessed with getting the wedding party shot where everyone is in their own little group. I’m starting to think it’s my signature shot.

One of her bridesmaids wanted to do a jumping shot which Dani wasn’t exactly interested in so I told her to look surly while the rest of them jumped. I think it’s cute.

They are such a good looking couple!

Ok, so during the ceremony my assistant Gabby and I were standing near these cacti (is that even right? lol) and I suddenly decided that I had to try and get the ring shot with the cactus. Luckily I was trusted to run off with the rings later during the reception. I always bring them back safely:)

Dad was so happy for his little girl. He was so welcoming of Nick too. It was one of three very sweet speeches that night.

They just look so right together. Especially during their first dance.

And look how adorable their Moms are watching them dance:

I had to post these because it’s funny. Look at what the bouquet looks like before it’s thrown. And then what it is reduced to in the next!

Dance time! Mr. DJ played 3 Michael Jackson songs throughout the night so I was happy:)

Here is the flower girl Natalie being cute. I swear right after I took this shot she gave me the biggest smile.

I love when I can get a long exposure shot in.

That’s all folks!

Nick & Dani,
You guys have been a real pleasure to be with this past year. I hope you have a wonderful marriage and life ahead of you! Congratulations!
