A BRECKENRIDGE, COLORADO WEDDING AT MAINSTREET STATION

Ashley and Dustin’s winter wedding at Mainstreet Station in Breckenridge, Colorado was such a blast!! Ashley reached out two and a half weeks before her wedding searching for a wedding photographer - and I am so glad she did!! Their day was so laid back, fun, and full of love. I had the bets time ever getting to know these two and celebrating their day with them and all of their friends and family. Their whole family and everyone there made me feel so welcomed and literally like I was there as just a guest rather than a photographer! Scroll down to read the sweetest review EVER from Ashley - and to see their whole dreamy wedding gallery!!

“Having Alyssa as our wedding photographer was the BEST. DECISION. EVER! We cannot speak more highly of her as both a friend and photographer. Our situation was a little unique – our previously contracted photographer stopped responding to us, so we were left without a photographer only two and a half weeks before our wedding! It was total panic mode for us, and Alyssa COMPLETELY saved the day. I reached out to her right away, she happened to be available on our big day (thank god!!!), and we met for drinks to talk it all over. We are incredibly grateful Alyssa was able to take on our wedding last minute, and she did it all with complete calmness, positivity and professionalism. On our wedding day, Alyssa showed up so excited and much earlier than planned. She was super organized and helped keep us (and our wedding coordinator) on schedule. When it was time to take photos, Alyssa had already scouted out the PERFECT first look spot – a little forest with a bridge and stream behind Main Street in Breck. It was AMAZING (!!!) and we would have never known that little hideaway existed without her. We are admittedly a little awkward taking photos, but Alyssa made it so easy, comfortable and most of all FUN! For family and wedding party photos, Alyssa helped keep everything moving and we were wrapped up in 20 minutes or less! My family couldn’t stop talking about how sweet and adorable Alyssa was and how she felt like part of the wedding. (My grandma and mother in law still keep talking about her!!!) After the wedding, Alyssa got our photos back to us SO QUICKLY (less than a month). They are seriously the most incredible photos and I cannot stop looking at them. She captured our winter wedding so perfectly and they all look so…MAGICAL! We all know the feeling when you look at others’ wedding photos and wonder if yours could ever look as good….I can’t even believe my wedding photos are actually mine and real and so freaking perfect! (We were so cold and shivering our butts off, so without Alyssa’s patience, perfect eye and editing skills, we would have been total messes ☺). All that said, Alyssa was the best decision we made regarding our wedding and we would choose her to be our photographer a thousand times over. Not only did we end up with insane photos, we (and our puppies) became friends, too!” - Ashley + Dustin
