Hi, Tony here. First off, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I know you’ve probably looked at quite a few photographers already, so I just wanted to share a little about what makes me different. I started photographing weddings in San Francisco and New York City before making Denver my home. Over the years, I’ve really honed my craft and found that photography is not just what I do—it’s something I truly love. I’m always excited to meet new couples and tell their unique stories through my lens. It would mean a lot to me to be part of your special day. Feel free to check out my work on my website and get in touch to chat!

We had the pleasure of working with Tony for both our engagement shoot and a 5-hour wedding package. His photography is simply stunning—elevated, artsy, and full of emotion. The final images were beyond beautiful and captured the day perfectly--he also gave us every photo in Black & White for no extra charge! Tony went above and beyond, even scouting locations with us beforehand to make the most of our time. While Tony can come across as a bit scattered and his communication style might feel a little quirky at times, the quality of his work is absolutely worth it! He has a strong artistic vision and is great at positioning you for the best shots, even if it takes a little patience. He delivered our edited photos in record time (2 weeks!), and the results were truly impressive—comparable to photographers who charge 3-5x more. Several wedding guests have asked us something along the lines of, "Who was your photographer?! EVERY photo looks like it could be in a magazine!" And it's true! There's not a single dud amongst the hundreds of photos! Tony is a kind, caring, and talented artist, and we're so happy with the beautiful memories he created for us!

KATIE BAECHLER Colorado Wedding & Lifestyle Portraiture

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

I'm head over heels for my fireman, patient mama of two (9 and 4), oldest of 5, and a lover of dark beer and other people's love stories. I encourage my couples to push for what they want on their wedding day- whether that's a white dress on a golf course or something free from tradition. My own wedding was at our first date spot (a coffee/whiskey/donut shop), Carbon Coffee, Downtown Denver. It was incredibly meaningful and one of the best days of my life. I'd like to ensure my clients the same wonderful memories. *Discounts to active military and first responders!

We are so thankful to know Katie and have had the privilege of having her shoot our engagement session and wedding! We were supposed to get married in Mexico in 2020 and we were planning on flying her down for the wedding. When the wedding was cancelled due to COVID, she was so wonderful--she made sure that we knew that she was going to work with us for whenever we were able to reschedule. My husband is not one to feel comfortable behind the camera. However, Katie immediately made us both feel comfortable and gave us prompts that made the entire experience so much fun! We've definitely found our photographer life! As our family grows, I know she will be the one to capture every moment. Her photos speak for themselves--they are truly pieces of art! We would highly recommend her to anyone!

We were thrilled with Yellow Paddle Photography for our wedding photos. Marissa was so kind and responsive in all of our communications leading up to the big day - she always got back to us right away with any questions we had. On the wedding day itself, she helped make us feel relaxed and confident. When my wife and I were unsure of how to pose or stand, she guided us into flattering positions. The final photos turned out beautifully - she perfectly captured the emotions and special moments of our wedding. Her photographic eye and skills are evident in the gorgeous images she delivered.

We make wedding photography unbelievably fun and easy! Our unparalleled experience, professionalism and talent means that you will get amazing photos and video that you will bring back those amazing memories forever. Throughout the wedding planning process, you can expect clear communication, expert advice, technical and creative talent and some serious fun.

From our initial introductory phone call, I was beyond impressed with Bethany at Elevate. She was so prepared and walked me through things even our wedding coordinator had not mentioned. After just that one phone call, I knew she was the photographer I wanted, and I could not be happier that we found her! Bethany was so laid back and fun at our engagement shoot, she even won over my husband who absolutely hates having his photo taken. She was super communicative, and always positive, reassuring and calm/cool/collected. She listened to all of our requests and was patient and flexible with everything leading up to and on the day of, despite some chaos with family and weather. Elevate's pricing is competitive (honestly, I was expecting to pay more for everything we got). They also include a slideshow during the wedding reception, which I have to admit I was hesitant about and actually considered asking them not to do, but am so glad I didn't! Countless guests commented on how amazing the slideshow was and how they'd never been to a wedding that had that before -- people got teared up. And it was so fun to take a couple minutes to pause and relive some of the moments from earlier in the day. We got both our engagement and wedding photos back within a month, and they are just superb. I had a couple questions that came up when ordering our album and McCory was quick to respond and unbelievably helpful. Elevate is just simply the best. Stop looking - hire Elevate now!

Hi! I’m Bri! Cameras have always been a passion, but it wasn’t until I left my corporate job that I fully embraced photography as my calling. I started by capturing Jiu Jitsu, focusing on its raw intensity, but soon realized I love the mushy gushy moments—tearful vows, quiet glances, and the joy of saying “yes” to forever. Now, I specialize in weddings, elopements, engagements, and proposals, blending storytelling with emotion and movement. With a keen eye for detail, I create images that feel natural, artistic, and deeply personal—telling your story exactly as it is.

Awarded Best of Zola
Katie is more than just an incredible photographer, friend throughout the entire process. Back in February, I was scrambling to plan a last minute proposal and had spent months looking for someone I could trust. Katie came through in every possible way. Not only did she help me pull off the proposal flawlessly, but she also helped plan the entire experience, from the perfect location to places we could go afterward to celebrate. What stood out the most was how comfortable she made both me and my fiancée feel, especially since I’m not usually very photogenic. She brought such a calm, warm presence to the shoot, and her flexibility and thoughtful suggestions made everything stress free. Katie wasn’t just our photographer, she became a special part of our story. We’re now planning our wedding and genuinely hope to have Katie there not just behind the camera, but as a guest and friend. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly goes above and beyond.

Working with Courtney was a dream! She was incredible to work with from the start with our engagement session all the way through to the wedding day and beyond. My husband and I are a little more on the shy/awkward side - especially when it comes to taking photos, but Courtney made us feel so comfortable and knew exactly what to have us to do to get some beautiful and fun shots :) Courtney was so fun and helpful throughout our special day and the questionnaires she sent us to fill out were so helpful for us to give her any heads up and set our day up for success. Our wedding day and timeline went off without a hitch and everyone has had wonderful things to say about our photo/video team and the sneak peek photos! Oh, she was also so patient with our chaotic pups who wanted to join in on some photo fun! We have zero regrets choosing Wild Opal and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!! :)

Hey friend, I'm Natalie! I’m here to document the best day of your life in a way authentic to you! I’m inspired by the beauty of nature and the best of humanity. My goal is to give you memories you will never forget. I’m a storyteller and documentary styled photographer first. That means I capture your day in a way that feels like a movie you can watch every time you look back at your photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie was absolutely instrumental in making our wedding day more special than we had ever imagined. We really prioritized finding vendors who had experience working with queer couples, people of color, and disabled people - whose portfolios aligned with our values and our wedding party beyond simply stating “all are welcome” on their websites - and Natalie delivered. I have never been comfortable or felt like *myself* in front of the camera because of my flat affect and rigidity (I’m neurodivergent), so I was particularly anxious about having “good” photos from our wedding day. But Natalie’s warm demeanor immediately put my mind at ease, and I was blown away by how our engagement photoshoot went. Having (obviously) never planned a wedding before, my wife and I were a bit overwhelmed by all the decisions and coordination that go into making 100-person party go off without a hitch, but Natalie helped us put together a custom timeline that somehow fit in plenty of photos with our large, loud, blended families, and even an extra photoshoot for my parents! She communicated with all our vendors in advance and kept the entire day running on time. She helped button our dresses and clasp our jewelry, helped us stay present and enjoy each moment while offering direction when warranted. And the photos… Wow. The level of detail and composition of each photo is remarkable and immediately transports us back to our wedding day. We look (and felt!) like we were living in a fairytale. Natalie captured our personalities and relationship so well, from the intimacy of our first look and “golden hour” to lots of laughter with our closest friends. It’s the best wedding I’ve ever been to - of course! - and we couldn’t have done it without Natalie.

All of these things help you feel exactly how you felt in that moment. If you are here, you desire a photo gallery that makes you feel something.

You can tell how comfortable and relaxed my fiancé and I were and it truly felt just like another close friend taking pictures of us! Nothing was awkward or uncomfortable. It was probably one of the best experiences we’ve ever had!! I could not be happier with how these photos turned out and how much effort and time she put into editing and making sure everything was absolutely perfect and beautiful for us!

Ashlyn and Brandon were lovely to work with for our wedding photos. We had an engagement session with them a few weeks before the wedding and Ashlyn was extremely helpful with posings and different locations, especially since my partner and I are not very good at figuring that stuff out. At the wedding she and Brandon were both very good at corralling family members and ensuring that we got all of the shots we wanted as well as some we didn't know we wanted. We got a first look at some select photos about 2 weeks after the wedding and had all of our photos about a month later. All in all, working with Ashlyn was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Hi I'm Nichole Emerson, a Colorado wedding and elopement photographer. I help couples craft and capture celebrations with a delightful and adventurous spirit for those who love the outdoors. Adventures in nature have always brought balance and peace to my life, so living and working here in Colorado makes me feel super lucky and grateful. I think love is awesome!

So, when I get to combine the beauty of Colorado with that emotion and connection that love stories bring, it's my absolute favorite.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and engagement photos! Nichole was great from the very beginning with coordinating the shoot at Red Rocks, and carried that all the way through to our Wedding in Granby. She was very polite, honest, and professional. Nichole did a great job of making us feel comfortable and really captured the moment. Nichole's photography style is also amazing, really highlighting the vibrance of the environment in a realistic way, without a bunch of filters or edits. Very natural, which is exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend Nichole!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole Henshaw! Our wedding at the top of Four Points Resort in Steamboat Springs, Colorado was nothing short of magical, and Nicole played a huge part in making it so. From the moment she arrived, she was attentive, professional, and incredibly communicative with both the bridal party and our families. She helped us capture moments we would have never thought to ask for, and her attention to detail was impeccable. Nicole made sure that every key moment was covered from start to finish- ceremony, reception, and the after-party that lasted well into the evening. Her ability to read the room and know exactly what to capture at each moment was astonishing- especially because we didn’t know every detail of what to ask for. Her intuitiveness, creativity, and beautiful eye for photography are so evident in every shot we received back. We are beyond grateful to have had her as our photographer and would recommend her in a heartbeat! Thank you, Nicole, for helping us relive the magic of our special day through your incredible work!

For many years I was a four-star chef. I got into photography to have creative control over the pictures of my food. One day I was working for a caterer at a wedding, and the photographer asked if I could fill in for his assistant. I thought why not, and I haven’t looked back since that fateful day when I traded in my knife for a camera. While I was a chef, I felt personally responsible for my customers’ happiness. I feel the same way about photographing your wedding. I want to create a unique personal experience for every bride and groom. I like to foster a fun and relaxed atmosphere during the shoots.

Patrick was our lead photographer. He was able to work with our associate photographer and videographer smoothly. Our ceremony changed because of rain causing the space to change and be much smaller. I was worried about how this would impact the photos. I’m so happy with how the photos came out and was able to see how Patrick got creative and maneuvered around to still get great shots! We had originally chosen him for his unique style of taking photos with different focuses and the very creative pictures. He did not disappoint. My favorite photos of the day were these uniquely set up photos. We had a few hiccups along the day with our venue but the calming voice of Patrick helped me feel better about our day. Our day was cold and he encouraged our friends and family he’d get the right photos quickly so they could go inside and warm up. I would definitely recommend him for your engagement or wedding photos.

Photography is my passion and my business. I started on my photography journey in high school using a film camera which quickly grew into a love for the art of capturing important moments in life. My passion and skill in wedding photography has grown immensely in the last decade, and I have had the opportunity to shoot in locations like Maui, Charleston and Cape Fear.

Lauren of LP Wedding Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. Her open, kind, and humorous communication style made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. As a true master of her craft, Lauren has an exceptional eye for capturing emotional moments with grace and skill. She was flexible and fun during our portrait sessions, guiding us while still ensuring we got the photos we envisioned. Lauren's time management was impeccable despite my lack of such. When asked on a vendor survey if they were our favorite, we said no, it was Lauren - her passion, creativity, and professionalism shone through to deliver incredible photos we will treasure forever.

I’m an award-winning Denver-based elopement and intimate wedding photographer drawn to authentic, soulful moments that feel natural and true. With over a decade of experience in storytelling, travel, and guiding, I bring a calm presence and an open heart. My approach is simple—help you feel at ease so your love shines through. No stiff poses, just laughter, quiet glances, and honest connection. I blend rich color, emotion, and timeless storytelling. A bit of an old soul with a young spirit, fueled by curiosity, wonder, and the joy of human connection.

Ryan is great! He's not only a talented photographer but an amazing human being as well. He took pictures for our elopement and we couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out. His ability to tell a story through his photos is unique and we loved working with him!
