As a wedding officiant, I had the pleasure of meeting and working with King on a beach destination (the couple are Canadians) wedding. It was a crazy, blustery day on the beach but King was a total pro, taking time before the ceremony, to go over my normal movements and special moments that the couple had planned. Afterwards, he even prepared - less than a week later - a small gallery of ceremony moments just for me, emailing me a link and permission to use. The photos were fabulous! I had taken a few with my iPhone - and while I knew his would be better, his totally blew me away. I can't wait to work with Journeys Photography 941 again!

Hello! I’m Shelly, a Denver metro-based wedding photographer. With an eye for detail and a heart that beats for art, I’ve spent over a decade honing my craft. 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’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.

Nestled in the heart of Colorado, my creative journey spans over seven vibrant years in the freelance photography world.

With over three years dedicated to immortalizing love stories through wedding films against the stunning backdrop of Colorado's landscapes, I weave emotions and moments into timeless visual tales. Each frame is a testament to a passion for storytelling and an eye for detail that transcends conventional boundaries, leaving a lasting imprint on every project I undertake.

Awarded Best of Zola
Coming from Ohio to Colorado without ever having visited before, we were overwhelmed trying to plan an elopement from afar. Choosing Tommy as our photographer was, hands down, the best decision we made. He not only scouted the most breathtaking locations, but brought calm to our chaos, warmth to our nerves, and somehow even won over our dogs instantly. From the first moment to the final shot, Tommy made us feel completely at ease. His energy is positive, grounding, and exactly what you want on a day that means everything. And then there are the photos—stunning, professional, full of life and emotion. We’ll treasure them forever. Thank you, Tommy, for giving us more than pictures, you gave us a gift we’ll hold close for the rest of our lives.

We don't even know where to start with this amazing photographer. The first time we met Paige was for our engagement photos at the Broadmoor. It was evident that Paige had a deep care and love not only for photography, but for her clients as well. Fast forward 2 years to our wedding! We didn't even hesitate to have Paige as our photographer! She was very detailed with the photos that we wanted, told us how much time it would take, and made sure to keep us on track for our special day! Paige is friendly, charismatic, and down to earth.

I love to be outside, and combined with my passion for emotive imagery and getting to know your story, I adore what I get to do for my work. I focus on capturing the intimate, authentic moments of your story and weave them into a series that is casually joyfully you. With a background in travel and documentary photography, previously working in international non profit storytelling, my style speaks to those looking for the organic story with the greatest value being in experiences over things.

Rose is the most incredible photographer I have ever worked with! She has such an eye for capturing the beautiful little details that mean so much on your wedding day. We got married in a standard ceremony with reception afterwards, which she shot just perfectly. She also did our engagement photo shoot which we loved! There were so many times looking through our wedding gallery where I was pleasantly surprised she had captured a specific moment during our wedding and reception, as I hadn't even noticed she was there taking a picture! She has such an eye for the little interactions between family members. She is also so skilled at incorporating movement into your photos so they aren't just standard posed pictures (which she can also do beautifully) but instead photos of my husband and I running through a field/walking around/him twirling me, etc. Truly cannot get over how beautiful our wedding photos are - all thanks to Rose! She is also a breath of fresh air to have nearby throughout the day - there was a lot of stress and activity going on and she was such a calming presence. 10/10 recommend Rose as your wedding or elopement photographer! Well worth the money to have these photos you will look at and remember the day for the rest of your life.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,200

Hi, I'm Sabrina! When shooting a wedding, my primary goal is to document your day beautifully and authentically. My documentary-style approach to shooting allows you to have a day with limited interruption so you can be fully present while still having photos to look back on. I capture the big moments like your first kiss alongside smaller ones-- like grandma's reaction to you walking down the aisle-- that may go unnoticed otherwise. I've shot elopements as small as five people to weddings with over 500 guests. Whatever you throw at me, I'm ready for it!

Sabrina was a joy to work with throughout the entire photography process! She was super responsive, knowledgeable, and timely in the editing of our photos. She perfectly captured our vision for our engagement photos and I’m so obsessed with how they turned out!

For decades photography has brought Amanda great joy, and a long career in the service industry, and sales, created a well balanced human. She is very much aware of the stress that accompanies planning a wedding, and even elopements can make you want to pour yourself an adult beverage. Amanda makes the process painless from the first meeting, engagement session, until your day of celebrations. She is here not only as your hired professional, but as a sounding bored, and sometimes counselor, to all her amazing clients. Amanda Baker Photography is an inclusive photo studio. We believe in equality for all. Love is love.

Specializing in outdoor weddings and adventurous engagements, we thrive in the beauty of the natural world—whether it’s mountaintop vows, forest elopements, or sunset kisses in wide-open fields. That said, we also have a deep love for indoor ceremonies—intimate, candle-lit, or elegant and grand—each one bringing its own kind of magic. With a candid, timeless approach to photography, we’re here to capture the real stuff: the laughter, the tears, the stolen glances, and everything in between. Our goal is simple—to make you feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated from the first hello to the final frame.

My husband and I are both camera shy. Vinnie made us completely comfortable and it was a wonderful experience working with him. I feel all photographers can take the typical posed photos but Vinnie was able to capture the candid moments where our personalities and relationship really shined thru. I highly recommend Vinnie!

From the moment we booked The Pic Chick, Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. We live in California, and got married in the middle of nowhere Colorado, so the first time we met her was our wedding day. Her communication was always fast, cheerful and honest, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, she was a pro at wrangling our family for photos and made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Ivy's work is truly timeless, fun, beautiful and playful - she absolutely nailed it! We have pictures swinging on the swings and skipping through the grass and elegant photos under the trees and in front of an old church. She was even happy to help with little tasks like making sure my bouquet was arranged how I wanted it and making sure my dress looked perfect. Ivy will be your bestie and was part of our family by the end of the night! We are so grateful to have had her capture our special day. We couldn't recommend The Pic Chick more highly!

No stiff poses, no fake smiles—just the real stuff. From mountaintop vows to packed dance floors, I’ll document every laugh, tear, and wild moment that makes your story yours. These photos will outlive us, telling your story exactly as it happened—real, timeless, and full of love.

There are not enough words to express just how unbelievable Mike and Christine are! We originally chose them because we were fortunate enough to have witnessed them at work. They were the most impressive photography/videography team we had ever seen, and we needed them for our wedding! Trust me when I say, they are even better than you can possibly imagine. From our initial meeting, all the way through the process of engagement photos and finally the wedding itself, they were incredible. They respond almost immediately with any questions you might have. They made sure that all of our requested photos were taken and made sure that we stayed as close to our timeline as possible. The teaser video and highlight videos that Mike created are truly magical. I am completely obsessed with them. He was able to capture footage of everything, without us even knowing he was there. Mike and Christine are true artists with the most unbelievable eye for detail. I cannot recommend them highly enough and I know that we would have been disappointed had we chosen anyone else.

She was great to work with and was very responsive with questions. She was always timely and organized. We first met with her for our engagement photos. We are both a little awkward around a camera but Amy got some amazing shots and helped us pose really naturally and with some natural cues and poses. We absolutely loved our fall engagement photos. Amy did an amazing job capturing our wedding as well. She was amazing at capturing natural moments. She asked for a detailed shot list – this helped her run through all of the family photos quickly. She sent us a sneak peak of some photos the day after the wedding – which was awesome. We cannot wait to get the final shots back.

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.

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).

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 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.

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!

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.

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!! :)
