Aspen, CO | Alex + Lauren Wedding | Summit Photo & Film
Some wedding days just hit differently, and Lauren and Alex’s October wedding in Woody Creek was one for the books. They chose to celebrate at a stunning private home along the Roaring Fork River, and let me tell you—it was the perfect setting. With the fall colors in full peak, golden leaves surrounded everything, and the river added this peaceful, almost cinematic backdrop to the whole day. Before heading to the venue, they got ready at Hotel Jerome, a spot that always brings a touch of classic Aspen charm. The morning was filled with excitement, some happy tears, and a few dance moves in between—because why not? Once they were dressed and ready, we snuck away to Snowmass for a couple’s session among the fiery aspen trees. These two are just so natural together—laughing, holding hands, and sneaking little glances at each other that made every shot feel effortless.
By the time we made it to the ceremony, the sun was starting to dip, casting the most incredible glow over the river. Lauren and Alex stood surrounded by family and friends, framed by golden trees, and delivered some of the best vows I’ve ever heard. There was this mix of deep emotion and inside jokes that had everyone either tearing up or laughing (or both). As a wedding videographer, moments like these are pure gold—authentic, heartfelt, and packed with meaning. Capturing their voices, the way they looked at each other, the sounds of the river in the background—it all came together to tell their story in a way that felt completely them. It’s why I love wedding videography so much—it freezes these moments in time in a way that photos just can’t quite do.
After the ceremony, the celebration kicked off with dinner, toasts, and a dance floor that stayed packed all night. Watching Lauren and Alex soak in every second of their day was a reminder of why I do what I do. Their wedding wasn’t just beautiful—it was real, full of genuine love, and a perfect reflection of who they are as a couple. If you’re dreaming of a wedding with stunning fall colors, a riverside ceremony, and an intimate yet lively atmosphere, this one is proof that it doesn’t get much better than October in Aspen.
