Ashley McKee Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Paonia, CO

I’m a wedding photographer based in the San Juan Mountains, photographing weddings in Telluride, Ouray, Montrose, Grand Junction, Ridgway, and the surrounding areas. My approach is relaxed and natural so you can actually enjoy your wedding day instead of feeling like you’re stuck in a photoshoot. You don’t need to know what you’re doing in front of the camera—I’ll take care of that. I’ll guide you when needed, but most of the time I’m capturing things as they unfold—the real moments, the scenery, and the overall feel of the day.

Ashley is a top tier photographer! If you want courtesy, professionalism, dedication and a stunning product then do yourself a favor and book Ashley for any and every event you can! We used Ashley for engagement photos and for our wedding. Extremely happy!!

Hi! I'm Amy Ronk, a photographer currently based in Colorado, USA. After attending photography school, weddings kind of stole my heart.

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Paonia, CO

With my love for photography and growing up with such a large, rowdy family, it's no wonder I found my career in professional photography. Then marrying my goofball of a husband and having two hilarious and awesome kiddos, the importance of remembering every little moment has only grown as I experience each new adventure of my life. I get so much joy and gratification from the opportunity of providing such meaningful work to others-- I am so passionate about those intentional and authentic moments. And I like to have fun and laugh, too!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough great things about Marlee. She photographed both our engagement shoot and our wedding. Both of which she helped bring my exact visions to life. I look back on our photos and can remember every emotion of both days. Both my husband and I had never had professional photos taken before these experiences and she made us feel so comfortable and helped guide us through it all. By the end she truly felt like a friend. I couldn’t recommend Marlee enough if you’re looking for a photographer who truly cares about capturing your days exactly how you envision.

I have always loved the outdoors. You can find me hiking mountain passes, rock climbing, planning another trip to Mexico, nose buried in some travel guides, looking up cheap flights to Australia, or off on some crazy 3 week long road trip to the Canadian Rockies with my cousins. I will help guide you through the entire process of planning an amazing experience. You can trust me with your wedding day dreams & will give you my all in planning out every little detail for your elopement.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Malachi from Shellcreek Photo for our wedding, and we can’t recommend him enough! From the very first meet and greet, he was incredibly professional, taking the time to ask us about what we wanted for our wedding day. His dedication to capturing our wedding was exactly as we imagined was evident throughout the entire process. As someone who had never had professional photos taken before, I was quite nervous about being in front of the camera. However, Malachi put both me and my husband at ease throughout the day. His calm and reassuring presence made us feel so comfortable, and it felt like we were simply enjoying the moment rather than posing for photos. On top of that, Malachi has an incredible eye for detail and a knack for finding unique, off-grid locations that made our photos feel so special and personalized. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and that passion shines through in every photo he takes. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and the beautiful photos we received!

  • Serves Paonia, CO

My journey as a photographer started with taking photos of friends, old and new, at festivals. I fell in love with documenting the joyful energy at these events. Weddings and elopements remind me so much of those experiences- friends dancing together under the stars, laughter, speaking openly about love for one another, and truly enjoying life’s most meaningful moments. These days I draw a lot of my inspiration from the incredible mountain ranges all around me, but my biggest source of inspiration is my amazing clients and their connection with each other. That’s my story. Now I want to hear yours!

Lizzie is hands down one of the most talented photographers I have ever had the privilege of working with! She has such a magical eye for catching the most beautiful light and I swear as I look through our photos from that special day it looks straight our of a fairy tale. We traveled over 6 hours specifically so she could capture our day and I couldn't have been more thrilled and in utter awe of the final outcome. She was extremely professional and patient with us and she made sure to capture every tine detail so it will be in our hearts for ever. I highly recommend Lizzie Tiles Photography to anyone in the Colorado or surrounding area!

We are Joe & Rhonda Hendricks, the owners of Elope Telluride. We do it all here, from the photography to planning to location scouting. We’ve been married 13 years, and have a son named Austin! For 10 years, we worked hard to establish a wedding successful wedding photography business in Nashville, TN before moving to Colorado. It was here that we decided to shift our business from the stressful wedding industry, to adventure elopements! Joe combined his award-winning wedding photography, with his talent for landscapes… and mountain elopement photography fit like a glove.

I am a wedding officiant and have had the pleasure of working with Rhonda and Joe from Elope Telluride on many weddings for over two years. They are hands down my favorite wedding planners/elopement specialists to work with. I always look forward to their bookings because they are such a joy to work with and for. Joe and Rhonda are both highly organized, creative and kind. Joe's photography speaks for itself, true art. He captures not only the big moments but the subtle moments, the grin of a child, the pride in a father's eyes, the glow of the bride and the awe seen in the face of the groom. They put couples and guests at ease and the ceremonies are peaceful, beautiful and exquisite. They clearly love what they do.

We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!
