Hello there! I'm Andrea, owner of Amative Creative, and every weekend we're so blessed to be able to tell the love stories of so many amazing couples. Like many others in this industry might say, we simply adore weddings. But what makes us a little different is our entire brand is centered around telling love stories specifically curated to reflect your vision and aesthetic. "Amative" means to be prone to love, so as you can see, we want nothing more than to tell your love story! But what makes us truly unique is that we understand every love story looks different. And we personalize every aspect of how we document your wedding day!

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

Tomi Photopositive

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Boulder, CO

Hello, I'm Tomi, a Wedding Photographer with over 500+ weddings under my belt. I live in Broomfield, Colorado with my amazing wife and my dog Teddy. I capture authentic, creative and emotionally driven wedding moments. My photography style has a mixture of unique candid photos combined with some traditionally posed shots, all edited with the more warm and true-to-life color editing style.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Tomi Photopositive for our October 2024 wedding in Genesee Park, Colorado, and got exactly what all of his other perfect reviews rave about; Relentless compassion and positivity, regular and professional communication, timeliness in every regard, and of course an amazing collection of photos we get to cherish for the rest of our lives. We struggled to find an affordable photographer for our simple and small wedding. Some quotes came in exorbitantly high. One even wanted us to sign a contract before we could even schedule a virtual meet & greet to see if we'd all vibe. We found Tomi on Wedding wire, and we loved his portfolio (and his pricing almost seemed too good to be true based on his work), so we reached out. We set up a zoom call, and it was clear right away that Tomi loves what he does, and that he cares about his clients. This initial meeting was everything a nervous couple could hope for, it silenced much of the fear of booking someone we knew very little about. Though not included in the wedding photography package, we booked an engagement session with Tomi. I am so glad we did! It was worth every penny! Aside from great photos themselves, it gave us a good feel for how he works ahead of the wedding. Plus, it was fun, and we got some great shots! Tomi will go out of his way for his clients. One example is that he had never been to our venue (Chief Hosa Lodge - if you're looking for a wedding of 35-65 guests) before, so he went to the venue before the wedding to get a feel for all the best spots. He did this on his own time, and did not charge us extra for it. While we had originally hoped for a sunny day and sunset photos overlooking the mountains, we got snow and fog. Tomi seized the opportunity and turned the "disappointing" weather into one of the more memorable aspects of our day. For any couple who is considering not using a photographer, we strongly caution against it. we originally wanted to go that route or was looking for someone cheap (1000). However, finding Tomi was a blessing from God, and his pricing is more than worth it! His photos are eons better than anything you could hope for from an amateur photographer or cell phone grab. And seeing the final polished photos a couple months after the fact is like getting to experience your special day all over again. If you're still reading this, stop and book him. You will not be disappointed.

Hi new friend, I’m Elora! Photography is so much more than snapping pretty photos to me. It is about the adventure we share and the memories we create along the way. One day we might be hiking up a mountain for those epic views and another we might be chasing the laughter and little in-between moments that make your story yours. I want you to look back years from now and feel every bit of it all over again.

Elora Danen Photography is one of the BEST photographers we have ever worked with! She and her team were able to make our wedding dreams come true by capturing the beauty of our wedding at the Venue at Crooked Willow Farms in Larkspur, CO. Even with a cloudy and windy day against the mountains, her and her team made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the process. ALL of the photos turned out beautifully and encapsulated all of the love and emotions that we shared that day. I could not recommend this photographer enough!

I believe that wedding photography should be about you. This is your love, your story and your adventure. Here's what I believe you deserve: A. A photographer who listens to your whole story, and gets as invested in it as you want (but not like in a weird way) B. For you to be able leave stress at the door. I've spent years photographing weddings and honing my craft, I've got you covered no matter what. Also, I bring snacks. C. Amazingly personal photographs where you don't feel like a stranger in your own wedding album. I want to give you a fun experience, and allow you to be fully present in the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex was absolutely incredible to work with on our wedding day. He was on time, energetic, and always seemed to know exactly what we needed before we even asked. His understanding of lighting, timing, and how to structure the day made it possible for us to get every photo we hoped for while still enjoying time with our friends and family. His collaboration with our videographer was truly seamless. Multiple guests even asked what company they were from because they worked together so flawlessly—they were shocked to learn they hadn’t known each other beforehand. On such an important day, having vendors who naturally connect and work as a team is such a gift, and Alex took it upon himself to build that communication from the start. He went above and beyond by checking in with us often and making sure we always had what we needed. He even jumped in to take professional photos whenever he noticed guests taking pictures on their phones so we could have those moments captured forever in the best quality. Alex didn’t miss a single beat throughout the entire day. We are beyond grateful that we chose him as our photographer. He captured our wedding from start to finish with so much care, talent, and attention to detail. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to document our special day!

Hi there! The name’s Ali. But I also go by: you’re cheerleader, hopeless romantic, and your bestie throughout the wedding process. I am a Colorado raised-and-based photographer, serving couples in Boulder County, Denver Metro and beyond. Nothing gets my heart pumping like documenting memories. I live for freezing all the firsts. The first look. First kiss. First dance. But more importantly, I want to capture how you felt. I don’t want to just take nice photos. I want to build you a time capsule, so when you look back at your wedding photos years down the line you can remember every laugh, tear and kiss.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are blown away by our photos! Ali is so amazing to work with we got everything we wanted on our special day! She always made sure to check in with us and especially me the bride and I appreciated that because wedding days can be so crazy! The meeting we had with her really helped her figure us out as a couple and what we were comfortable with. She had great direction when we felt awkward posing but she would make us feel comfortable to let go and really take in the moment. We noticed her talents through yellow paddle photography and through them I was able to pick out who fit best as well as style in photography and we are so happy to have found her. We wanted some different styles for our wedding shoot so we asked for different lens such as the kaleidoscope effect and others and those are our favorite ones! Thank you soo much Ali you’re the best!! Book her like yesterday!

We do Photo+Video Teams primarily - see more team samples on our "Videographers" page on Zola! I love "storytelling" in shooting and creative editing - creating not just a photo/video record, but adding sparkle, brightness and engaging polish to edits, design elements, fx and dialog/music mixing to build a more grand and exciting "mood" and story. It's great being part of "The Best Day Ever!" for most couples, along with learning and exploring new events, supporting my client's excitement and creativity and energy ;)

Jeff was super easy to work with, we just had a few video calls before the big day. During our wedding he and his team captured the full ceremony and reception videos as we'd asked, including all the details and kind words that friends had for us. I was really happy with the final product and thought it was documentary worthy to share with relatives overseas who couldnt make it in person.

We can't recommend him enough if you're looking for a Boulder wedding photographer or any where in Colorado really.

I am so happy we hired them to capture the most magical day of our lives. Nick and his team were beyond comparable to anyone else. They captured everything we wanted, without being overbearing. They kept their distance when needed, they took control when needed, they had a great schedule set yet it didn't feel rigid. It was so fun and comfortable hanging with them all day. I cannot say enough good things about them. They also had a cool, new and modern photo booth that we added that everyone loved. Nick went above and beyond throughout this entire process and the amount of work and effort he puts in to this is worth every penny. Do not look anywhere else, you found your photographer in Nick.

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boulder, Colorado. I specialize in capturing real moments with bright, bold, natural images. My goal is to help make your wedding day the best it can be and ensure that you have a meaningful, memorable, FUN wedding day to start a lifelong adventure. Being a wedding photographer is the best job ever, but when I'm not working, you can usually find me outside doing something like hiking, kayaking, camping, traveling, or taking landscape photos.

Abby was absolutely phenomenal and we have only great things to say about her. We love her bright and sunny editing style, and on top of that she is friendly and professional- all highlights of working with her. She communicated well and she's clearly very committed to helping make your wedding day go smoothly- she even shares a worksheet that has several sample wedding day timelines, and a guide to planning the day of the wedding (these were lifesavers). There is enough to worry about with the entire process of planning a wedding and it was so nice to not have to worry at all about anything photography related because Abby was so on top of things. On wedding day itself, Abby seamlessly joined the party and as a result, got so many great shots of our ceremony, and candids of our family and friends that really capture the joy and love that we felt on our wedding day. I keep getting SO many compliments on how beautiful our wedding pictures came out, and how you can truly feel the fun through those pictures. We cannot emphasize enough how much we love Abby!! We whole heartedly recommend her.

I'm a photographer with more than 20 years of professional experience photographing the nuptials of couples all over Colorado. I used to shoot all types of weddings, big and small, but have lately been focusing on elopements and micro weddings as I love the intimacy that these sorts of events engender. I am available for a limited number of micro weddings and elopements each year.

From the moment we first spoke with Julie, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer for us. Julie has a wonderfully calm, humorous, and easygoing communication style that instantly put us at ease and calmed our nerves on the big day. Her work is extraordinary with a natural documentary style that captured all the small moments and emotions as well as all of the key events from our wedding. The finished product brought tears to our eyes - Julie has such an incredible eye for detail and is a true talent at telling a story through her photographs. Julie also has such a remarkable bedside manner and mixes so well with everyone. Her presence was both soothing and fun, and she was even able to calm down my mother who was a bit of a wreck emotionally that day. With Julie, you're hiring not just an exceptional photographic talent but also an amazing person who will only add to and increase the joy and beauty of your big day. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Megan's journey began in a college darkroom, where she discovered photography as a tool for connection and meaning. A RISD graduate with over a decade of experience in editorial, commercial, and wedding photography, she's worked globally with mission-driven brands. Her entrance into weddings was serendipitous—stepping in for a friend's canceled photographer revealed a natural skill for helping people feel seen. Now weddings are where her skills converge: editorial eye, documentary approach, and quiet attunement to emotional undercurrents. To Megan, it's not just how a day looks; it's how it feels.

Her ability to make us feel completely at ease resulted in the most natural, stunning photos we could have ever imagined. She truly captured the playful energy of our day, exactly what we had hoped for. Every photo feels so alive, full of joy, and perfectly us.
