Hello there, I am a photographer in the charming town of Gunnison, Colorado. I am passionate about capturing special moments through my lens, and I particularly love shooting weddings. I am always brimming with creative ideas and thoughts, and I firmly believe that I know how to make a picture look beautiful. When I'm not behind the camera, I love exploring new places and traveling the world, fueling my curiosity and inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little bit about me. I hope to have the opportunity to capture some incredible moments for you soon.

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!

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 are the photographer and craftsman: your adventurous and creative team in documenting your special moments and displaying them for years to come.

You can trust that we’ll create a comfortable experience—for even the most camera-shy people—and you’ll walk away feeling overjoyed by the process. We would love to photograph your love story from proposal, engagement, elopement, or wedding in Colorado and around the world. We’ll travel for any event or portrait session, just ask!

Hey, we're The Outlovers and we help plan, photograph and officiate epic elopements in the great outdoors.

I have been photographing professionally since 2012 and proudly created a business that focuses on the storytelling abilities of captured moments through creative light and emotion.

To tell your unique story through a captured moment is simply what I live for.

Hey, I'm Amanda! I've been helping couples navigate the beautiful chaos of planning and photographing elopements across Colorado's Western Slope and Moab, Utah since 2015 (started the business in 2012!) I believe your wedding day should feel as good as it looks—which means comfortable, intentional, and entirely stress-free. Whether you need someone to guide you through the entire planning process or just want a photographer who gets it, I'm here to make sure your day unfolds exactly the way you envisioned. When I'm not helping couples plan and document their day, you can find me drinking chai tea and binge watching Gilmore Girls or Grey's!

I excel at storytelling and capturing candid shots dreams are made of. I specialize in capturing the truth of a moment and turning it into an immersive, jaw-dropping image. Who says you have to choose between intimate moments of connection or sweeping landscape photography? I’m here to give you both! And through an experience that whimsically blends the silly and sophisticated, you’re sure to savor every second. So, if you’re ready to have a photography experience unlike any other (and probably leave with a little bit of the mountain on the hem of your gown), buckle up! Let’s take this show off the road!

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.

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!
