I would HIGHLY recommend Bridget Dorr as your wedding photographer!! Bridget documented our small, intimate elopement in Nederland, Colorado. My wife and I immediately fell in love with Bridget documentary style and how natural other couples always look in her portfolio On our magical day- Bridget jumped right into the mix, naturally capturing the day from the beginning to the end. She made everyone feel incredibly comfortable I am not a fan of being in front of the camera and she got me to laugh and feel safe and seen by her.

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
Choosing Alex to capture our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made! From the beginning he was more than willing to help with more than just photography, wrangling the entire media team and leading the charge to take it off of our plate. Prior to the wedding, there was ample communication about our necessary to capture shots and what kind of vibe we were going for, helping to really get a feel for how we wanted the day to go. Day of the wedding, some things time wise were running behind, but Alex was able to reposition things to where it never felt like we were rushed, still capturing everything we wanted to. If you’re looking for a photographer, look no further, as Alex will be the best choice you could make for your wedding day!

“There is one thing the photography must contain, the humanity of the moment. This kind of photography is realism. But realism is not enough – there has to be vision, and the two together can make a good photograph.” – Robert Frank

Awarded Best of Zola
Words cannot describe how grateful we are that Nick Benson was our wedding photographer. I had been following his photos for a few years and could not wait for the day that you would be our wedding photographer. From the very beginning we knew we had made the right decision, so much so that we had referred him to my sister before he even did our photos! Our engagement shoot was perfect, he worked with us to make us comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture the best photos despite difficult weather, wind and people passing by. Our wedding day was no different. He was not even phased by the rain and still managed to capture some amazing photos! Nick has a keen eye captures moments that convey the emotion that was felt as it was happening. He is calm, resourceful and incredibly professional. His passion for photography as well as his connection to his clients makes him an amazing photographer. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Abby Shepard Photography

Boulder, CO
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,900

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 met Julie of June Moon Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Her relaxed and fun-loving personality immediately put us at ease, and we felt confident she would capture the essence of our special day. True to our instincts, the photos she delivered were absolutely stunning - beautifully emotive, candid, and timeless. Julie was a joy to work with, expertly directing the group to ensure we got all the shots we wanted before the gorgeous sunset faded. The finished product was nothing short of spectacular, and we are overjoyed to have such cherished memories to look back on.

I'm a Boulder wedding photographer with a passion for documenting your day as it happened and highlighting the people and relationships you value most. I'd love to spend time exploring and capturing the moments that tell the story of you.

People who see the photos say, "I feel like I'm there just by seeing these!" After the ceremony, we took beautiful photos at Chautauqua Park. Jonathan is professional, kind, easy going, adaptable, affordable, and we received hundreds of photos in high-resolution and web-resolution.

Be Boulder Photography 

5.0

Boulder, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800

For me, photography was a happy accident: I stumbled into it 15 years ago when I worked as the art director of SKI Magazine, and budget cuts dictated we take on more work in-house. Something about it flipped a switch for me, and I eventually started to think more about photography than I did about design. I practiced all the time, taking photos of my family at home, and then of friends' families too. I found so much beauty in capturing moments—an open-mouthed laugh, a playful handhold, a knowing look between a husband and wife—that otherwise would be lost amidst the chaos of life.

Be Boulder never ceases to amaze me with how natural and comfortable her shoots/sessions are. She really makes the client feel their best and truly captures the images they will love for years to come! The photos are effortlessly candid and portray the meaningful moments of the day.

Rezz Studios Photography

Boulder, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500

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.
