Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style

I've been shooting weddings for almost 10 years. I often work with adventurous couples who look beyond what most of the wedding industry is selling and wanna start their own traditions. I've worked in huge east-coast ballrooms, on Mexican beaches, and at the edges of Moab cliffs. And I'll happily travel to wherever you're doing your own damn thing on your wedding day. I focus on capturing your favorite people in the world and giving you images that pull you right back into the feeling of the day. My style is natural, candid, and joyful, with some sassy editorial portraits and a whole lotta crazy dance floor shots.

We were looking for a wedding photographer who would be able to capture the most special moments of our day and who would create wedding photos that were also art, and WOW did Cory deliver! He was so helpful both leading up to our wedding day and on the day itself - we gave him a tight timeline the day of and he handled it so professionally and still made every moment so fun and stress free. He was honestly such a fun guest to have at the wedding, everyone was talking about how much they loved our photographer! And the photos were just perfect. They captured the love and the fun of the day so beautifully. The photos were unique compared to other photographers but also timeless - we had an incredibly difficult time picking our favorites!

I believe in creating wedding photos that encapsulate the story of your day, from the big moments to the tiniest details and everything in between. Life is fleeting and you deserve photos that bottle up the magic of your day so those memories can be enjoyed for generations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Photos were the TOP priority for us when it came to our budget because EVERYONE mentions you shouldn't skimp on your photographer and it was very important to us. My wife found Lauren and we were obsessed with her photos. We then became more obsessed with Lauren when we met her and spent our day with her. She was so attentive and kind. She was everywhere all of the time but never in the way, which I feel a lot of people run into. We asked her to capture the vibe of the day and focus on all of our genuine interactions. She not only did that, but exceeded it with her incredible shots! We are beyond thrilled with our gallery and appreciate all of the work Lauren did. We got digital, film, polaroid and dad cam footage. Love all of it. Thank you again, Lauren! (The smallest sample of her incredible work. SO many others.)

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Jamie for our engagement and wedding photos and would HIGHLY recommend her. She has such a unique way of seeing people and moments, capturing things exactly as they feel. Her work has a depth and honesty that made us feel completely seen as a couple. One of the things we appreciated most was that she never came in with any preconceived ideas of what our wedding or photos were “supposed” to look like. She did not push poses or an aesthetic that was not us. She saw us as our own couple, listened to what mattered to us, and created images that feel full of real emotion and life. She is also incredibly kind and funny, and she took the time to understand us. We are not posey people, and we never once felt awkward or pressured. Most of what she captured was completely candid, which we loved. For portraits, she guided us in a way that felt comfortable, natural, and fun. She brought the perfect energy for our small, intimate wedding. She blended in with our guests so seamlessly that it felt like she was part of the group, and my family kept saying how much they loved her. And the photos… STUNNING. She has such a talent for capturing emotion, candidness, light, and artistry all at once. There were moments I missed throughout the day, and she caught them beautifully. Everyone who has seen the gallery has been blown away. She was also the sweetest hype woman and helped me with my flowers and dress before the ceremony. I did not have a bridal party, so this meant a lot, and her presence was exactly what I needed in those moments.

I love my job because I’m passionate about capturing people in a way that is beautiful and different from how they usually see themselves when they look in the mirror. I’m here for all the magical golden hour photos, the dance floor candids, the sweet details and everything in between!

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.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I help couples by offering them irreplaceable photographs. I do this by providing it in a way that adds value by creating natural, genuine, and memorable filled images. I excel at making your session, not just a shoot but a memory to take home with you. Capturing the raw moments and combining my knowledge of the arts, I create a unique art composition filled with deep emotion.

As a wedding DJ, I work with a lot of photographers, and Colleen’s Captures is so lovely. Her editorial documentary style captures real moments while still delivering high-end, magazine-quality images. She’s professional, communicative, and keeps the day running smoothly alongside other vendors. Her editorial pop studio (luxury photobooth) is always a hit and adds a unique, elevated experience for guests. Highly recommend for couples looking for a Colorado wedding photographer offering both photo and video packages.

I’m Kate; a dog obsessed, coffee shop lurking, total weirdo of a Denver wedding photographer. I’m blessed with a very dry sense of humor (I’m British, I can't help it) and love using it to diffuse awkwardness in front of the camera. As one of my couples wonderfully phrased it, I’m “artsy without being inaccessible.” You know when things look good, and I do too. I’m here for the weirdos, wanderers, and folx who make the world a more interesting place. I AM INCLUSIVE OF ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE AND ALL TYPES OF LOVE. When you reach out to me, you will be met with nothing other than encouragement, support, and excitement to celebrate YOU.

Awarded Best of Zola
Can't say enough good things about Kate! Kate's photos looked fun and candid, but still beautiful, and the prices were quite reasonable (we researched dozens of photographers). When we messaged her, she was so responsive and fun we knew we had to have her no matter what. She was very thorough, making sure we got the pictures WE wanted, and not what our parents or other guests might be thinking. Everything was laid out way ahead of time so we all knew what to expect. I really appreciated the planning beforehand, because while it can be a lot, it made the actual wedding day/week SO much smoother. Pictures took about 6 weeks, which was great turn around for *over 600 photos*. We absolutely love them! Some of the photos are gorgeous posed shots of my husband and I that I'm absolutely getting framed, but some of the best are these candid moments from after the wedding and reception. She got us signing our marriage license, hugging and crying with our guests, and doing finger guns with my sister at the reception. She didn't miss a thing and it's the best recreation of the day we could've possibly asked for. All our guests also remarked on how cool she was - some of them even thought she was just a friend of ours they'd never met cause she fit in so well! GET KATE

After meeting in NYC, Nina & Danny earned their fine art degrees and moved to Denver. In 2009, they combined their passion for photography, and From the Hip Photo was born. Its name is a nod to the style of our images: candid, spontaneous, fresh, playful, and vibrant.

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,000

Hi, I’m Syd — a Colorado-based wedding photographer who’s all about capturing real, meaningful moments. My style leans toward candid and documentary, but I love blending in classic portraits and creative shots, as well — whatever feels right for your day. I believe the best photos come when you can just be yourself — no stiff poses, no pressure. I’ll be there to catch the belly laughs, the teary hugs, the quiet moments, and everything in between. Your wedding day is a whirlwind of love and energy, and my goal is to give you photos that feel as true and alive as the day itself, while keeping you present along the way.

Syd was such a joy to work with from the start. Before the wedding, she sent us a super helpful questionnaire that really made us think about the vibe we wanted for our photos. On the day of the wedding, she came to my hotel room to take pictures as I was getting ready. I was pretty nervous, but Syd had this amazing way of cracking jokes and making me feel so comfortable and relaxed. During our ceremony, we had some pretty wild weather (it was raining sideways at one point), and that didn't stop Syd from snapping some of my fav photos of the whole day. When we got our photos back, I was absolutely blown away. Syd just gets it — she captured our wedding in a way I never could’ve imagined. Every joyful, intimate moment was perfectly preserved. I honestly can’t recommend her enough — 12/10!

My background in creative direction is what led me to my career in photography. My roots are in the Midwest, (I grew up in rural Indiana, went to college at Purdue, and lived in Chicago for 8 years.) but Colorado has stolen my heart. One of my favorite things to do when I'm not turning our home into a jungle by adding yet another plant to my collection is watching the sun rise somewhere from the top of a mountain. My little family, which includes my wife, Jenny, our sweet puppy Daisy, and our two silly, rambunctious cats, Jack and Mabel, have loved turning Denver into our home.

Working with Mat was a delight. He takes the time to understand what you want from the day and to really know you as a couple so it can shine through in the photos.

Hey y’all! We’re Meg & Kevin! We are seekers of wonder – dreamers of moments that cause your heart to race. Moments bursting with adventure that make you feel fully alive and reminded of just how magical this human existence is. This is why we are elopement photographers! We help you plan the wedding day of your dreams! Where your memories come first and you get to have a blast marrying your best friend!

June 8th had finally arrived and we were BEYOND excited to get our elopement underway. We had spoke with Meg and Kevin several times over the phone to talk over all the details of the big day— all the conversations helped build our anticipation of the big day. They were SO invested in ensuring we had the best, most memorable, elopement day possible. We received our sneak peak while we were on mini-moon in Destin and we were overwhelmed with excitement at how good they were. We even joked that if all we had were the 60 or so pictures in the sneak peak we would be content. However, upon the arrival of our full gallery, we were obsessed with them! We were so emotional as we felt we were reliving our big day. Meg and Kev’s ability to capture the raw beauty of nature and our raw emotions are second to none! There are so many wonderful pictures, we are going to struggle picking our favorites to print for an album. They are so so SO beautiful and amazing! Meg and Kevin made the elopement super fun to where the pictures did not feel forced or posed. Almost as if we were on a hike with our besties and getting married at the same time. They went above and beyond to accommodate us—from prior prep with location choices, activity suggestions.. to day of things such as having a wagon for things we could not fit in our hiking packs. They were awesome! One hard thing in regard to planning, was being out of state and not being able to see the locations before picking them. Not to worry though, once we settled on a site, Meg and Kev hiked it ahead of time to get current pics of the location along with timing the day out with the required additional hiking. They built trust and confidence with us to ensure that everything would go smoothly. Lastly, since it was just the two of us, we wanted an officiant to make it feel a little more official. Kevin CRUSHED it as an officiant. He took bits and pieces from our phone convos to the surveys we filled out to make it personable. It was SO well done. We still chose to exchange personally written vows, in a different location apart from the ceremony (to fit our hermit personalities) while Meg and Kev captured the moment from afar. Overall— we could not be happier!!

They listened to our vision and crafted an experience that felt personal, unique, and entirely special to us.

We spent a lot of time on Instagram looking at various photographers, but once we came across Authentic Collective, we knew our search was over. The style and quality of their work speaks for itself.

Not only did they make us feel comfortable and relaxed, but they also made sure that our time together flowed effortlessly, capturing the most intimate and beautiful moments without us ever feeling rushed. They are amazing at setting up shots that allow for capturing special moments all while not making you feel overly directed or staged. Their approach allowed us to be present in the moment while knowing that we were in the best hands.

Leah Goetzel Photography

My name's Leah and I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Denver, Colorado. I've been doing photography for 10 years and I still pinch myself that this is my full time career. I photograph a limited number of weddings each year to guarantee my time and commitment to each of my couples.

Leah is an absolute dream of a wedding photographer. We really wanted a photographer who would help us make our day fun and full of joy - and boy did she deliver (and then some!). She captured our day so perfectly and was incredibly professional throughout the whole planning process. She listened to our crazy ideas and executed them flawlessly (including her getting into the Vail gondola with us on the big day!). We would absolutely recommend Leah to anyone looking for a wedding photographer, and if we could give her 10 stars instead of 5, we would!! Thank you, Leah!

MPT Photography is a queer-owned wedding photography business focused on creating cinematic, story-driven galleries that authentically capture your relationship, community, and celebration. Aside from taking photos that'll make you kick your feet, I love cultivating joyful and stress-free experiences for every couple (even if you hate being photographed). Based out of Denver, Colorado, I love traveling for weddings!

Morgan flew to Chicago to photograph our wedding and exceeded all our expectations. From start to finish, Morgan was easygoing, kind, and adaptable—taking beautiful photos of all the little details on top of pictures of us and all our guests (and our dog!). The photos are beautiful and truly capture the day, and our friends and family keep telling us how much they love their portraits too. We’re so thankful for these memories. Morgan made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and was so fun to work with!

Kelsey and I have worked together over the past three years. She is my go-to-photographer anytime I need an associate shooter, second photographer, or even assistant for my commercial shoots. I love working with Kelsey because she is very professional, highly trained, and very good at what she does creatively. She’s very dependable and has always followed through on anything she has committed to doing when we work together. I highly recommend Kelsey!
