Sound Originals did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! Ari and Ali were very professional and they understood how to set up good shots. I'm amazed by how good the lighting was in most of the photos, even in some rooms at the church that weren't as well lit. There are a few photos I wish had been full body rather than cut off at the ankles, oh well. At the end of the night when our coverage had ended before the wedding did, they waited till the end of a song before saying goodbye instead of interrupting, which we greatly appreciated.

From the very first interaction, their communication was frequent, clear, and friendly - they made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly great, with beautiful and amazing photos that perfectly captured all the special moments of our celebration. Crystaline's photographer gave us great direction, making sure to document all the most meaningful parts of our day.

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. And so far it's been an honor to capture such intimate and honest moments for so many awesome couples. I've laughed, shouted for joy, and even cried for a lot of the couples I've worked with, all from behind the camera. 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.

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.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
All that I can say is to BOOK CASEY for all of your photography needs! Casey first photographed me for my college graduation pictures, and I loved them so much that I knew for years that I wanted Casey to photograph me when I got married. I reached back out to Casey many years later when I got engaged and she was so professional and responsive from the beginning. First, my husband and I eloped in the Italian Dolomites and Casey was the only person to come with us to photograph the most special day of our lives. From the beginning, Casey helped me plan the entire elopement day with logistics, picture spots, and to develop a plan. We talked about some different editing styles so she could make sure to deliver exactly what we wanted. Casey woke up early to help me get ready and was there for us at every step of the day. We went to several photo locations all over the Dolomites and I honestly couldn’t be happier if I tried with the photos from our elopement. The most beautiful pictures I have ever seen and the most amazing memories to have for the rest of our lives. The elopement was extremely nice with Casey there, and we felt comfortable the entire time and will remember her for the rest of our lives. We then dropped her off at the airport and went on the rest of our honeymoon. After our honeymoon (untraditional) we had a wedding celebration at home and Casey photographed that as well. Before that day we made a template of every picture that we wanted to make sure she didn’t miss any special shots with family and friends. She captured every single detail and more of this day and again delivered the most beautiful pictures. I can’t recommend or thank Casey enough for what she has done for us. I plan to continue to use her to photograph all the special moments of our lives. If you want a photographer that is extremely attentive, kind, patient, artistic, and professional book Casey now! You will not be disappointed by her ability to capture memories that last a lifetime.

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!

We found Yellow Paddle after researching multiple other photographers & options. It sounded too good to be true (it’s not)! We were eloping and having a hard time planning from afar.

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!

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).

I cannot recommend Madison enough—she’s seriously THE BEST! From the moment we started chatting about my wedding to the day of, she showed up with her sweet and chill vibe and made everything feel so easy and natural, even when the day was *chaos*. She has such an amazing eye and captured literally all the little moments I didn’t even know I’d want to remember (like our pups or that sweet look my husband gave me during the first dance). The photos are beyond stunning—Pinterest-worthy, dreamy, and exactly how I pictured them. If you’re thinking about booking her, just full send it. Trust me, you’ll thank me later!

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!

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.

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 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.
