Tony went above and beyond, joining us for our rehearsal to scout out the best photo locations and ensuring we got all the shots we wanted with our family and friends. We are thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Tony Gallagher Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer in Colorado.

Santana was AMAZING! Professional in communication before the wedding to make sure he understood all the shots we needed, showed up early on the day of the wedding to check out the location and pick the perfect spot for our reveal. Even when a groomsmen went missing, he helped us problem solve the pics that could be taken and took extra time after the wedding to get all our wedding party photographed.

Hey I'm Katie! "I promise that you’ll never find another like me-e-e, ooh-ooh-ohh. I’m the only one of me, baby that’s the fun of me…" (Admit it—you sang along, didn’t you?) Taylor Swift is totally onto something here: finding a photographer who can accurately showcase your love story is key. Your wedding day is about celebrating what makes your relationship unique and capturing all the feels and moments with your loved ones is part of that too.

Awarded Best of Zola
Katie was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the start, Katie's communication was consistent, compassionate, and timely. Her high-quality, beautiful work truly captured the special moments of our micro wedding in the mountains. Katie's encouragement and photography skills were invaluable, and when our dog accidentally ruined the photo book, she happily recreated it for us. We would highly recommend Katie Blondin Photography to any couple getting married in the Denver area!

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.

Bethany from Elevate (with the help of Emily) photographed our wedding in November 2024, and I truly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect experience. As the bride, I really wanted the focus of our photos to be genuine, expressive moments that truly reflected what the day felt like—and WOW, they absolutely nailed it. The images are bursting with emotion, laughter, and love, capturing the energy and spirit of our celebration so beautifully. I’m a very expressive person (my face shows everything I’m feeling), and some of my favorite photos are the candid ones—pure joy on my face, my husband’s, our families’, and our guests’. Looking back through them takes me right back to that day, and I just can’t stop smiling. Bethany perfectly documented everything—from the vibe of the venue, to the ceremony, to sweet little moments between loved ones, to wedding party portraits. Every shot feels intentional yet natural. Even when we ran a little behind schedule, Bethany stayed calm, kind, and supportive—never once adding stress. She made me feel comfortable, beautiful, and totally present. Most of the time, I barely even noticed the camera. Bethany and Emily blended right in, capturing everything organically rather than staging or directing too much. It honestly felt like having two close friends there, cheering us on. I couldn’t have picked a better team to document such a meaningful day.

She made everything so easy, from initially meeting with us to talk about it wedding, booking, and her wealth of experience in advising us on what to wear, how to pose, how to feel comfortable in front of the camera, and how to enjoy ourselves throughout the process. Her guides for engagement shoots and the wedding day itself were invaluable, and her professionalism and process in hitting every major point of the occasion is done with such finesse. Katie is hilarious, affable, kind, and incredibly skilled at what she does. She made us feel completely taken care of from booking through the wedding day, and after. Book her; you will not regret it. Per my wedding party, “Katie is the real MVP.” We love her.

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.

Josh and I got engaged on 2/20/25 and Josh had hired Bri to photograph our engagement! She hid, I had no idea till after I was engaged. She did a wonderful job catching such a raw and beautiful moment between us!! Her and Josh even had to make a last minute plan and change locations for the surprise engagement due to weather, and she was very flexible, and worked with Josh the night before, and the plan worked out amazing, I still had no clue!! Bri is an amazing choice for a photographer for any occasion! Thank you Bri!

Angela did an amazing job capturing our wedding. From getting ready to the ceremony and reception, she captured all the details that I would have missed otherwise. She was super nice and easygoing from our initial meetup to the final photos. she was not invasive so we barely noticed her as she took amazing shots! She was a calm presence and relief of stress throughout the day. Her turnaround time was prompt and she captured so many emotions. The lighting was soft and beautiful. She even got my grandmas photo in the background as I was getting ready which brought me to tears. I feel she captured the personality of my husband and I perfectly. There were so many candid photos and little moments that I am thrilled to cherish forever. I would absolutely recommend her to capture your special day.

Proud to call Lakewood home. We love traveling our beautiful state capturing the most important moments in couple's lives! Our lead team consists of Beau and Luke (photographers) and Reese (videography.) We approach weddings in a photojournalistic style with a focus on candid/genuine moments. Of course, we want stunning portraits of the couple, wedding party, family, and friends, but also capture the joy and emotion in real moments throughout the day. I hope we can schedule consultation to see if we would be a good fit. Equality minded, we love all couples!

Beau and his team were incredibly communicative, professional, and personable throughout the entire process. Their clear and thoughtful approach put us at ease, and their high-quality, incredible work truly captured the story of our special day. Beau's style of capturing candid moments between us, our family, and friends never felt forced or posed, and we felt so comfortable being in front of the camera (despite not being used to that at all!). The examples of Blue Spruce's work speak for themselves - we were blown away at how perfectly they captured our wedding, and we will cherish these images for the rest of our lives!

I’m Lo, a wedding and elopement photographer creating warm, intentional imagery for couples who value connection and being fully present on their wedding day. My approach is calm, people-focused, and storytelling-driven—capturing your day as it naturally unfolds while preserving the emotion, movement, and meaningful details that make it yours. My goal is to deliver timeless photos that let you step right back into how your wedding day felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hire Lo. You won't regret it. Not only does she know what she is doing in terms of getting all the planned shots, she got incredible candid shots and live shots of my groom and I, our families, and our guests. As we've been looking back so far at our pictures, we get to relive the emotion of the day. It's the intangible thing that an incredible photographer can do--capture the emotion. I can feel our joy radiating out of our photos and I am so grateful I hired Lo. Years from now we are going to get to experience this day over-and-over because the quality of her photos is incredible. The variety of shots she was able to get makes it seem like she had second shooter (but she's just that good). Our first look was perfect. She made sure we got some golden hour shots and then got us right back to dinner so we could eat. She also is incredible at giving minor adjustment tips to make sure we weren't doing anything weird with our hands lol. Additionally, and this was big for me, working with her ahead of the wedding she reminded me how to be excited for this day. Wedding planning was stressful, but every time I got to talk to Lo she got me back to a place of being excited and joyful. The day-of when she showed up, she helped make sure we had everything covered, and kept me calm even when some things went wrong. I felt like I not only had a great photographer, but a friend who had my back and wanted to make sure my day went perfect. I am so glad we hired Lo. My groom teared up looking back at some of these photos. Hire Lo!

I am a Denver, CO based photographer with an inclination to travel. I am constantly inspired by new environments and experiences which I consider each wedding day to be. I've been in the wedding industry for 7+ years and no two wedding days have been the same and in my opinion, that's how it should be, as no two couple's story are the same. I picked up a camera at age 18 and just have yet to set it down at age 26. My aussie, Dixie, has been with me every step of the way and loves to travel herself. I am a hard core foodie and will try anything at least once (as will Dixie).

Awarded Best of Zola
Madison is the absolute best! She captured my bridal and wedding photos and all of the pictures turned out amazing! I was pretty nervous for my bridal photos but she was really helpful with posing and making it not feel awkward and they turned out great! As for the wedding photos, I don’t think anything could top the pictures she took! She’s truly amazing at what she does! I am so glad I reached out to her for my wedding! The pictures all turned out perfect and she was also very organized throughout the planning process as well. She shares tips and things I likely wouldn’t have thought of leading up to the big day! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a photographer! Adding some pics below so you can see how great she is!

Hi I'm David! Professional Wedding Photographer, part-time snowboard bum, proud Dog Dad, and husband to my wonderful wife, Phoebe. I started White Umbrella Photography for the same reason most people would start their own business, to pursue my passion and experience more out of life.

I really do find myself smiling ear to ear after each wedding, being reminded of how rad it is to love, and to be loved in return.

From the initial appointment, Lindsay was so warm and friendly - she made the entire process so unbelievably smooth. I never once had to worry or ask for communication - because she was always on top of everything before I had to ask. She was a great resource for us. When it came to the engagement session, ceremony, and reception, Lindsay made us feel so comfortable (we are notoriously awkward in front of a camera & she really made us feel 100% comfortable, which made every event more fun because she could capture our most authentic selves. Any random idea I saw I would ask her about and she was so receptive to it all & catered the entire experience to us (she also gave incredible ideas that fit with our personal style which were some of my favorite shots). Overall - we LOVED working with her & I would not have changed a single thing about her or the process, she did a fabulous job capturing our special days & she acclimated exceptionally to the different styles of each event.

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.

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!

My photography style is a blend of bright, emotional, and colorful and my goal is to reveal the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary. Throughout your entire wedding day, I strive to encapsulate the essence of the moment in each frame. My journey has led me to incredible places and allowed me to meet wonderful people. I believe that photography is not just about clicking a button; it’s about forging connections, capturing emotions, and preserving stories that deserve to be told.

At the end of the day we left thinking about what we had to remember the night... which is our photos. As a wedding coordinator, I’ve seen my fair share of photographers, but when it came to my own wedding, I knew exactly who I wanted behind the lens— Shelly M Photography! Being on the other side of the wedding planning process, I had high expectations, and I can honestly say, Shelly exceeded them in every way. Here’s why I’m absolutely raving about her: 1️. Professionalism that Shines – From the moment we connected to the final shot of the night, she was a true professional. She handled the timeline, kept everything flowing smoothly, and made sure every special moment was captured without stress or disruption. 2️. Master at Navigating Family Dynamics – Weddings are full of diverse personalities and family dynamics, and Shelly handled it all like a pro. She made everyone feel comfortable, from the shyest guests to the most energetic ones, ensuring no one was left out and everyone looked great! This includes the difficult family 3. Affordable Quality – You don’t have to break the bank for quality. She delivers amazing photos at a price that won’t make your wallet cry. As someone who knows the wedding industry inside and out, I can tell you that Shelly M Photography offers exceptional value. I’ve worked with photographers who either cost a fortune or leave you feeling like something’s missing, but with Shelly, there was zero compromise on quality or experience. I’m so happy with the photos from my wedding, and I can’t recommend her enough. If you're a bride, or another wedding pro looking for a talented photographer who knows how to make magic happen, Shelly is the one to book! From ceremony photos, couple portraits, details and dancing photos, I'm blown away.

At my wedding this summer, she so perfectly captured the vibe and took fun and unique photos that I absolutely love and will cherish for a lifetime!

If I could give 6 stars I would! We could not be happier with our experience with Light Fusion and their team! We had very specific and unique requests for them at our outdoor wedding and they made it all happen! Their communication was professional and thorough, and very fast I’ll add. Working with them was so natural and they made us feel at ease during our wedding jitters and excitement or stresses. They thought of EVERYTHING and captured our magical day exactly as it was so now we feel like we are there reliving our perfect day again when we review the pictures and videos! We are SO grateful for their dedication to the dream we had! They truly poured love and quality into each photo! Beyond thankful we chose them to do our wedding! They created something priceless that we will look back on hundreds of times through the years for anniversaries, sharing with friends and family and those times we need reminded why we fell in love in the first place. THANK YOU DMITRIY & HIS TEAM!! Well worth every penny!

I'm Natalie! I fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

Anton & Natalie Photography were the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the very beginning, their communication was efficient, open, and honest, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work is simply stunning - not overly edited, with perfect contrast and lighting, and they excelled at capturing great group shots of our entire wedding party. Natalie even went above and beyond by creating the beautiful floral arrangements, including my bouquet, and helping us select the perfect wedding venue. We are thrilled with the final photos and could not have asked for a better photography team to document our special day.

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.

Wow, where do I even begin? Natalie was absolutely instrumental in making our day a reality. She helped us not only capture the moments we cared about during our wedding, but helped us actually craft a wedding vision. As a queer woman with two moms who grew up thinking she would never be able to get married, I had never imagined my wedding, and came into the process with little to no vision. For both me and my wife the process was overwhelming, not just because we had never gotten married before (lol), but because many decisions hinged on us having a specific vision for parts of our day (which we often felt unsure about). Natalie was patient with us and answered lots of questions! Throughout the planning process I began to actually visualize our day in ways I had never been able to. She helped us craft a day that was meaningful to us and highlighted the things we cared about. And then we got the pictures! We were absolutely stunned. She captured our day with the elegance and gravitas we wanted. They weren’t just photos - they capture the emotions of the day and the essence of the two of us and our love. My number 1 goal through the process was to feel celebrated on the day of- Natalie helped me achieve that goal and also helped preserve that feeling for a lifetime. Choose Natalie! She’s thoughtful and really wants to celebrate each of her couples and their own unique love stories. I’d choose her again if I could!

I am a Denver-based photographer dedicated to capturing artful, real, and unforgettable stories. I believe the best images are rooted in light and shaped by genuine connection, the kind that feels warm, effortless, and perfectly imperfect. Whether documenting a wedding or a creative session, my goal is to capture the messy, beautiful little moments like belly laughs and wind-tangled hair that make your heart feel full

We loved working with Katie Puc Photography from start to finish. She was always responsive and easy to reach, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. Katie took time to understand our vision by creating a shared Pinterest board and asking what look we wanted for our wedding day. On the day itself, she stayed calm and confident, guiding us through poses while also experimenting with creative shots that turned out beautifully. We ended up with so many wonderful photos that we'll treasure forever, and we can't recommend Katie enough! The only thing I’d say that is probably why I’m giving 4 stars, is that there were some specific places I wanted pictures taken on the wedding day that I communicated ahead of time, and we didn’t take pictures in all of the places. I realize we were tight on time and our venue was very large, but I was a little bummed about that. We got some amazing golden hour photos (like actually incredible) but not sunset, which is something I also thought I said I wanted. I think there could have been some better communication between the photographers and the venue- /coordinator too. Overall, very happy though and a good experience.
