Tomi Photopositive 
Rating: 5.0 (72 reviews)
Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

Hello, I'm Tomi, a Wedding Photographer with over 500+ weddings under my belt. I live in Broomfield, Colorado with my amazing wife and my dog Teddy. I capture authentic, creative and emotionally driven wedding moments. My photography style has a mixture of unique candid photos combined with some traditionally posed shots, all edited with the more warm and true-to-life color editing style.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tomi was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. His communication style is sensitive, direct, thoughtful, kind, and friendly - they truly felt like a friend at our wedding who loved taking pictures. The quality of their work is nothing short of perfection, with visionary, long-lasting images that captured all the little details we didn't even think about, like asking guests to hide their phones or stand up straight. Tomi went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day ever, and we are overjoyed with the stunning photos that will allow us to relive our special day for years to come. Having him at the wedding felt like having a friend there who was passionate about clicking the best pictures for you, rather than a business transaction. He gets along with your guests better than you do. Everyone was asking about him at the end. Now I can’t imagine having another photographer. He has spoilt us, and I will literally reach out to him for every single event we want photographed, he’s become a staple name, synonymous with photography.

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!

Original Weddings Photo & Video is a team of EMMY award winning storytellers. Our photography and videography packages are tailored to you, customizable and perfect for every wedding. We offer engagement photography, wedding photos, highlight films, wedding coverage and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
We chose the package with two photographers and one videographer for nine hours, and it was absolutely worth it. One feature we really appreciated was the option to expedite our photos within a two-week timeframe—it was such a nice touch. We received over 1,000 photos, and they are all beautiful! They captured every special moment we hoped for, and the candid shots truly mean so much to me. It’s amazing to have so many memories to look back on, especially since the day goes by so quickly. We got married just over two weeks ago, so we’re still waiting on our video package, but based on everything we’ve received so far, I know it will be beautifully put together. The photographers and videographers were all so kind and wonderful to work with. Thank you for capturing our special day so perfectly!

Cory Antiel Studios

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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! We truly could not recommend Cory highly enough!

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.

Lauren did photography for our wedding and we could not be happier! I feel that her greatest strength is her incredible adaptability. While we had a plan, she expertly went beyond that and rolled with what happened on our big day to capture plenty of candids and impromptu shots that we will treasure forever. She was extremely approachable to our family and friends, helped us look our best, and put us at ease with her creative instincts and warmth. I'm stunned at the level of organization and professional care in the final product as well. We are so grateful!

📍Denver, Colorado • Front Range • & Beyond. From wedding days at Front Range venues to intimate mountain celebrations deeper in the Rockies, I’m drawn to photographs that feel atmospheric and honest. As a Colorado wedding photographer, I’m especially interested in how different parts of the state shape the feel of an image. Featured across Colorado in places like Vail, Ward, Aspen, Crested Butte, Grand Lake, Breckenridge, Howard, and Colorado Springs.

We are so happy we chose Nick to be our wedding photographer! He was professional, easy-going, and has an incredible eye. My husband was not looking forward to all the pictures that come with a wedding, but Nick made it painless and easy for him. We received our photos the following Friday after the wedding which is incredible. His second photographer Spencer was also great! I have no hesitation recommending Nick! Thank you again, we love our photos :)

Emberlight Media

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $945

Emberlight Media has been preserving memories for all of life’s precious major events since 1999. Our work has been featured at venues, on several websites and in numerous national and international magazines.

We truly could not have asked for a better team to capture our wedding day! From the moment we began working with them, they made us feel so comfortable and supported. Their warmth, professionalism, and creativity stood out from the very beginning. One of my absolute favorite parts of the day was our first look, and it was largely because of how calm and guided we felt. It was such a special and emotional moment that turned into one of the most fun parts of the whole day—thanks to their gentle direction and positive energy. Throughout the entire wedding, they struck the perfect balance between keeping things on track and allowing space for our ideas and spontaneity. When I asked if we could sneak away for sunset photos on the deck, they were all in—and those shots ended up being some of our favorites. Despite our large and enthusiastic families constantly asking for “just one more photo,” they handled everything with such grace and kindness. So many of our guests commented on how calm, patient, and lovely the team was to work with. We already love the photos they’ve shown us so far and truly can’t wait to see the full gallery and our wedding video. We’re so thankful we chose them and will be recommending them to everyone we know!

There is absolutely nothing I could say wrong about my experience working with Jamie. My fiancé had no experience being photographed and Jamie made him feel comfortable and relaxed in a way I don’t think many photographers can do. She was prepared, had wonderful ideas and a vision, and most of all she was sweet as could be! I recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a photographer who will put them at ease, bring their story to life, and provide heart stopping photographs. I will cherish my time with Jamie, and our engagement photos for the rest of my life.

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, I’m Amandha! A Brazilian-born wedding & elopement photographer based in Arvada, CO – close to Denver, closer to the mountains, and serving couples all over the Front Range! My love for storytelling, travel, and memory-making brought me to the U.S. seven years ago, and after living coast to coast and down south, I found my heart home in the Colorado mountains with my husband and our pup. I’m all about capturing love stories with warmth, intention, and a cinematic touch – told in a way that feels real, romantic, and deeply you, like a movie scene you’ll never forget.

On the day of our wedding, she helped us plan out the timeline and prioritize the moments that mattered most to us, even remaining calm and collected when unexpected rain showers threatened to disrupt our outdoor plans. Amandha's work is truly remarkable, capturing the candid, real, and heartfelt emotions of our special day. The photos she delivered were absolutely stunning, making our wedding day feel like a dream come true. We are beyond thrilled with the exceptional service and beautiful memories Amandha provided us!

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style

I’m a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer, and I shoot everywhere from Europe to locally in Denver! My favorite thing about photography is capturing the candid “in-between” moments, real emotions, and when people bring their dogs to their shoots. I work with my clients to create memories that last beyond their wedding day, and deliver photos that capture the fun, romantic and timeless moments so you can re-live them for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even start.. Kelsey with Sunbeam Studio is truly the best photographer around. Our initial conversations before we even booked her were easy, and her calming demeanor made us sure that she was the perfect fit for our day. We chose a package with an engagement session, and our wedding day. The engagement pictures were STUNNING and meeting Kelsey in person was just the icing on the cake! She is truly the perfect balance between a hype-gal, fly on the wall, and a calming presence when needed. Our wedding photos (we've only received sneak peeks so I can't wait for the whole gallery) are truly the most beautiful photos. I know I'm biased but we were wanting a mix of candids and posed shots and Kelsey knocked it out of the park! The little moments she was able to capture are far and away my favorite pictures. We also had a content creator to help capture the day and of course they worked together sooooo well. Please do yourself a favor and book with Kelsey. She is worth every last penny and I will forever sing her praises! I will literally never have photos done by anyone else.

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 recently used FTH for my wedding and they did a fantastic job, not only were the photos delivered to me in a timely manner, but they also snapped heartfelt candids and portraits that I'll keep forever. Their team is quick, efficient and will help achieve your vision (truly they were referencing my shotlist/inspo pics the whole day!)

I'm Collin, a Denver based wedding and portrait photographer with a natural, documentary style.

If you want photos that feel like how your day actually felt, we're probably a good fit. I shoot primarily in Colorado and love getting out into the mountains.

Collin Dunn Photography was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. He stayed in touch before the wedding, answered all our questions, and made us feel heard every step of the way. On our wedding day, Collin was focused on capturing the real moments that mattered to us, and his empathy showed in every shot. He didn't just take photos—he helped make the whole day feel special by being present and engaged with our family and friends. The quality of his work is outstanding, and he clearly puts his heart into what he does. We couldn't recommend Collin more highly to couples looking for a photographer who truly cares.

  • Photojournalistic style

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!

Denver, CO
  • Photojournalistic style

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!!

Where do we even begin?! We had the most incredible experience working with Savannah and Greg, and we truly cannot thank them enough for everything. When we first decided we wanted to elope, we had absolutely no idea where to begin. We stumbled upon them on Google, and we were so amazed by their work. We looked at every single gallery on their website and Instagram page, and we just could not have been more obsessed. They truly create art. After the first call with the two of them, we immediately knew we wanted to work with them. They were so kind and down to earth, and they are so genuine. They were with us every step of the planning process as well. We are from out of state and although we love Colorado, we are certainly no experts when it comes to the landscape. They curated the best locations for us based on the things we told them were important to us. Greg and Sav have spent thousands of hours scouting out the most amazing places in Colorado to get married, and the places are all so beautiful that you will have a hard time picking just one! They will help you find the perfect place that you are looking forward based on your likes, interests, etc. They have multiple amazing guides that they have spent so much time crafting. You can tell they have poured their hearts into their business, and you can see it in the quality of their work. They are excellent communicators, and they answer any question you may have throughout the entire planning process. The actual day of our elopement was the most relaxed day we could have asked for. Sav and Greg helped us stick to our timeline without ever making us feel like we were rushed. We were able to do and see everything we planned. They were so patient with us when taking photos/videos and never made us feel awkward. We had the best time with them throughout the 10 hours we were with them, and they felt like old friends we had known forever. We received our sneak peeks of the photo gallery and the teaser film, and I think we have looked at the photos and watched the film hundreds of times. They have MORE than exceeded any and all expectation! We've said it before, but truly, their work is ART. We are SO proud to show off the photos and video, and we can't wait to see the final product (not sure how it can get any better than what we've already received)! If we haven't convinced you to book with them, let their 100 5 star reviews and social medial galleries speak for themselves. We could not be happier with our choice, and we cannot thank Savannah and Greg enough for making the most important day of our lives beyond what we could have imagined.

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!

Your wedding day is so much more than just a day. It's a collection of beautiful, fleeting moments that tell the unique story of your love. That's why your wedding photos should capture not just moments, but the feelings, the laughter, and the love that shines through them. With us behind the lens to notice those stolen moments and artfully guide you in authentic interactions, you will see the beauty in every glance, the emotion in every smile, and the love in every gesture. Your memories, emotions, and love story are preserved in a way that feels true to you.

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!

I'm Jessica, a lifestyle photographer located in Denver, CO. I love photographing life biggest moments and want to be there for you every step of the way. Not only am I your photographer, but I am also your wedding advisor.

I can’t get over how amazing my wedding pictures are! My husband and I were a little nervous not being able to meet with our vendors before we got married (since we were coming from the east coast). Not only the day of the wedding was she great but Jessi communicated constantly with me throughout the process to make sure our big day was special. Jessi captured every single moment perfectly. She makes it fun and helps you relax so pictures are more natural. Overall highly recommend Jessi for a wedding photographer!!
