  • Classic style

  • Serves Boulder, CO

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with Elora and her team was an absolute dream and it honestly felt like another pair of our friends were witnessing one of the biggest moments of our lives. They captured every precious moment of our special day with such grace and creativity, far beyond our expectations. From the intimate ceremony at the historic Rockland Church to our photos on Lookout Mountain and following us to our reception in Morrison, they didn’t just take pictures and video – they told the story of our big day in the most special way. Their attention to detail was impeccable. Every photo felt so personal and true to the emotions of the moment. They were patient, kind, and professional throughout the entire process, making us feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera. She even made my side-profile look good!!! The vintage charm and elegance they brought out in each shot perfectly matched the vibe we envisioned for our wedding. We’re beyond grateful for the memories they've captured for us, and we’ll treasure these photos and the video for decades to come. If you're looking for a photographer and videographer who will not only provide stunning memories but also make your day feel even more magical, look no further than Elora and her team.

We had an awesome experience with Tomi from the absolute start! Tomi helped me plan and bounce ideas off of him and was very engaging as I planned to surprise my now fiance the day before our photo session. Tomi was very communicative when it came to the types of areas that would fit our vibe and where/when to meet up. During the session he made us feel comfortable and confident! He kept a friendly and fun attitude the whole time as he shot through various types of scenery. It was really a great experience and I'm glad I made the decision to photograph this step in our lives!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $800

Nationally recognized rock & roll photographer makes you the rock star on your wedding day! Combining the latest in film like color and modern art photography, with the classic simplicity of black and white photo-journalism. Lisa leaves no detail uncovered.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Lisa for our wedding in Lyons, CO and she was absolutely incredible! She was so easy to work with and brings an easy going and low stress approach to wedding photography which I felt calming and reassuring since wedding planning in general can have its fair share of stress. She is so talented behind the lens and looks for creative shots and suggestions to get a beautiful photo. She helped us feel comfortable posing and offered ideas and direction along the way when we needed it. She’s also extremely efficient, we did not want a photographer who would take us away from enjoying the wedding for long periods of time to get a million photos and that is not her preference either. She’s quick, she grabbed us for 5-10 minutes a couple times throughout the evening to get the best light and we were done and we still ended up with a ton of beautiful shots! Thank you Lisa! We will definitely work with you again in the future for a doggy shoot!

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.

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.

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 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.

“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.

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.

  • 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.

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 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.

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.

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.
