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.

The top 3 parts of our wedding weekend: 1) getting married 2) seeing our friends and family 3) Alex We had multiple family members and friends ask us if Alex was just one of our friends because he not only got all of the incredible photos he did and knew when to blend in, he also was friendly and kind to all of our bridal party, family, and guests, and excited to give us the best day possible. We had been recommended Alex by our engagement photographer and had never met him in person until wedding day but he fit right into the fold and knew exactly who we were and what we wanted. We had almost zero suggestions for photos, we already knew we trusted Alex from having spoken a few times prior to the wedding and seen his other photos and just let him tell us (of course enthusiastically because this is how Alex operates) where to go and how to get the best photos. Unlike other photographers, he also stayed with us as long as we needed instead of giving us a specific hour time limit which was incredibly helpful given you never know how your wedding day will go. He’s not only fantastic at his job, but also an incredibly kind and thoughtful person. My husband broke his collarbone in the weeks leading up to our wedding and once Alex heard he sent us a gift card for food delivery because he knew how difficult those weeks were. We are so happy that we chose him to be our wedding photographer and you will have zero regrets if you do the same. Alex is the best!

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
Ali could not have been any more perfect! She really played an integral part in pulling together our special day and she made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Her expertise in herding my family was greatly appreciated and we cannot recommend her enough! We never realized how incredibly important an experienced photographer would be in keeping our wedding running on schedule, but she was easily just as important as our onsite coordinator! Our wedding would not have been the same without her :)

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 ;)

Awarded Best of Zola
Jeff and Jon did an incredible job with our wedding video! We had a destination wedding in Santa Fe and they did such a great job at capturing the day on video in a way that makes us feel like we're there again. Jon was there with us for the event and was pleasant to be around and very professional. He worked with our photographer on documenting our day. They had a very quick turnaround time of 2 weeks for editing and completing our videos. The music was based on our personalized selection. We had a very small ceremony so wanted to be able to share with those who couldn't make it and they did the best job we could imagine. The showcased the venues and details of the day as well as the bride and groom. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a wedding videographer!!!

Charlotte Croy is a Colorado and Rhode Island based wedding photographer specializing in timeless, light filled imagery with a documentary edge. Her work balances natural emotion with intentional composition, creating photographs that feel elevated yet authentic. From the Rocky Mountains to the New England coast, her approach remains the same: relaxed, thoughtful, and centered on the couple.

Working with Charlotte for our engagement shoot was such an amazing experience. From the moment we booked, she made everything feel organized and stress free. She helped us choose a location that felt meaningful to us and gave great guidance on outfits without making it overwhelming. During the session, she created such a relaxed atmosphere. We never felt stiff or overly posed. She guided us when we needed it but also gave us space to just be ourselves, which made the photos feel authentic and full of personality. When we received our gallery, we were honestly speechless. The images felt warm, romantic, and true to us. She captured the big smiles and the quiet, intimate moments in between. We are even more excited for our wedding knowing we have Charlotte behind the camera.

“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
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.

Boulder, CO
  • Classic style

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.

We are so thrilled with Abby’s work-where to even begin? We wanted a photographer who would capture and honor the beauty of the place and people at our wedding and Abby did just. Our photos are stunning-naturally lit, bright, colorful, and perfectly capturing the love, fun, joy, ritual, setting, and emotion of the day. We cried happy tears looking through them and reliving the whole day. The candid photos are so joyful and the posed photos look lively and warm-there’s nothing stiff about them. Abby herself is incredibly capable-I didn’t realize until the day how many moving pieces/people there are to keep track of and respond to. Abby did it all with positivity, humor, and kindness. She organized individuals, couples, and groups quickly and efficiently. She never seemed frazzled or overwhelmed (even in the middle of the hora!). And she was inconspicuous and discreet during the ceremony-I forgot she was there but she captured the most beautiful moments! We have heard time and again from our friends and family that the photos really capture us and our guests-we’re so grateful, Abby! Thank you!

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.

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.

We happened to know Jonathan already because of his work as an aerospace engineering student (yes, the guy is a genius). Turns out, he's also a genius with photography! I can't get enough of looking at our wedding photos, they are spectacular. His editorial eye is superb, you'd think he'd been doing this for decades. He's also a genuinely great person and fun to hang out with while you're getting ready and taking all of those pre-ceremony photos where it's just the 3 of your for a few hours. He kept things light and even helped out setting up the chairs for the ceremony when we first arrived at the venue because the chair rental company lapsed in doing that (a story for another review). We cannot recommend Jonathan highly enough! And no, it's not weird to ask him to take pictures of your wedding food (because we did). You'll be surprised how much you enjoy seeing the spread when you revisit the day.

We're Jess and Austin Drawhorn — married adventure elopement photographers based in beautiful Boulder, Colorado. We’ve been planning & photographing elopements all over the world since 2017. We believe in social justice, equality, science, kindness – in following your heart and trusting your gut and finding your passions in life.

Every time I get to work with them, I'm blown away by their empathy, compassion and thoughtful approach to creating an elopement experience that is truly tailored to each and every person they work with. From casual hikes to beautiful vistas to offroading adventures through the mud in the rugged San Juan mountains, The Drawhorns can do it all... and they do it all with a smile! You'll hire them as photographers but you'll discover you may just get a couple of close friends by the end of it :)

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.

I don't even know if I have the words.... We feel SO LUCKY to have hired you. I went into our engagement session feeling nervous and self-conscious and awkward. You guys made both of us feel comfortable and that session turned out to be so much fun! Those portraits came out beautifully! Then, oh the wedding! I could not have asked for a better overall experience as far as the photography went. We loved having you there. There were moments I completely forgot you were around and alas! We have photos you took without us noticing. From the most special moments to the silly, fun, dance floor pics - you captured so many memories for us and our family and friends. We can't thank you enough for that!! BUT... the icing on the cake. When you guys said "Do you want to go get storm pics?" we had no idea what was in store. We still can't believe how amazing those lightning shots are! Everyone we show them to gasp. Thank you thank you thank you for making this part of our life together so beautiful and for capturing so much for us. After all of that, we couldn't fathom considering anyone else for senior portraits! Caleb's are as amazing as we knew they would be and we can't wait to see Ian's next year! I'll be reaching out for some professional headshots at some point and have recommended you to EVERYONE we know is looking for a photographer. We can't fully express our gratitude. We would not have changed a thing.
