We had an absolute blast during our engagement session and our NYE wedding was even more fun! We both felt extremely comfortable with Dani, it felt as if she was one of our best friends that we had known for years. Also her photos are STUNNING!! I could not be more in love with the way both our engagement and wedding photos turned out. We cannot wait to work with Dani again and have truly found a photographer for life.

Hi, Tony here. First off, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I know you’ve probably looked at quite a few photographers already, so I just wanted to share a little about what makes me different. I started photographing weddings in San Francisco and New York City before making Denver my home. Over the years, I’ve really honed my craft and found that photography is not just what I do—it’s something I truly love. I’m always excited to meet new couples and tell their unique stories through my lens. It would mean a lot to me to be part of your special day. Feel free to check out my work on my website and get in touch to chat!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of working with Tony for both our engagement shoot and a 5-hour wedding package. His photography is simply stunning—elevated, artsy, and full of emotion. The final images were beyond beautiful and captured the day perfectly--he also gave us every photo in Black & White for no extra charge! Tony went above and beyond, even scouting locations with us beforehand to make the most of our time. While Tony can come across as a bit scattered and his communication style might feel a little quirky at times, the quality of his work is absolutely worth it! He has a strong artistic vision and is great at positioning you for the best shots, even if it takes a little patience. He delivered our edited photos in record time (2 weeks!), and the results were truly impressive—comparable to photographers who charge 3-5x more. Several wedding guests have asked us something along the lines of, "Who was your photographer?! EVERY photo looks like it could be in a magazine!" And it's true! There's not a single dud amongst the hundreds of photos! Tony is a kind, caring, and talented artist, and we're so happy with the beautiful memories he created for us!

I’ve had a camera in my hand since high school, and from the very first click, I knew this was what I was meant to do. Photography is more than my career—it’s my passion. I love the art, the gear, the editing, and most of all, the people. Meeting new couples, celebrating with them, and delivering galleries that make them light up with joy is the best part of what I do.

Pretty Lady Photography's owner Austin is incredible to work with! She's very professional, but also so fun to work with. Austin is detail oriented and the way she edits her photos really makes the subject stand out!

I believe photographs feel like memory- honest, atmospheric, and beautifully intentional. With over a decade of experience,I approach every celebration with a balance of editorial direction and unobtrusive documentary storytelling. My work is shaped by light, movement, composition and human connection. I create images that feel cinematic, yet intimate... elegant yet emotional... refined yet real. Each couple receives a tailored experience, full creative direction, and a gallery designed to become part of their legacy.

From the moment we booked Austin Thomas Studio, we knew we were in good hands. Her communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - their photos beautifully captured the joy and excitement of our wedding day. Austin was able to keep the photo sessions running smoothly while maintaining a fun, relaxed atmosphere. As an amazing human being and excellent photographer, Austin ensured that we felt comfortable and natural in front of the camera, resulting in stunning, professional images that we will cherish forever. We cannot recommend Austin Thomas Studio highly enough!

We all have a story- so here's mine! I'm Jessica, the face behind the camera. ​I don't want to bore you with my entire life story, but you should probably know something about me! I'm a self- taught professional photographer that loves to document people celebrating love just like you are about to do! There are stories to be told within the shadows, and of course within the light of every setting I choose. Every photo I snap is my interpretation of the reality happening in that very minute. The raw photos with no facial expressions or the most exaggerated ones are my favorites, and honestly- they'll be yours, too.

I have worked with Jessica numerous times for multiple session types and weddings. She is very laid back, very easy going, she has a great attitude and I appreciate her attention to detail. Whenever I need someone in this industry she is hands down my go to!

I’m a mother of two little girls and a wife to a loving and supportive husband. I've got my hands full with my beautiful girls Chloe and Iris who keep me feeling young.

Oh my gosh Judy is the best! Not only is she an extremely talented photographer but she’s a lot of fun to work with. She’ll make you laugh and put you at ease throughout the process. She’s not afraid to take control of the room to get things done. I loved working with her for my engagement shoot and my wedding. I hope to work with her again in the future for my next big milestone. Her work is lovely and I could not be more pleased with how my photos turned out. I have included some from my engagement shoot and my wedding. We love you, Judy! Thanks for everything!

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. He went above and beyond to make our day special and stress free. Plus he did an AMAZING job making our diverse wedding party look their best in the finished pictures. 10 out of 10 recommend!

Stephanie was FANTASTIC. Especially as a first time bride you don’t want to be worrying about other people doing their jobs. You want someone who will lead and provide direction. We never met in person prior to the wedding and I was a bit nervous about how comfortable I’d feel in front of the camera but her warm and playful demeanor quickly dissolved my nervousness. Stephanie snagged the best shots that captured so much play, love, and joy. I loved that she sent me ALL the pictures. There’s so many I love that I would’ve lost out on if I were limited to a certain amount.

Hi! I'm Amy Ronk, a photographer currently based in Colorado, USA. After attending photography school, weddings kind of stole my heart. I love love of every kind, and it's always such an honor to be considered to capture your wedding day. I focus mainly on candid moments, and showcasing the emotions of the day. I think it's important to walk away from your wedding with timeless, beautiful photos that will remind you just how special your day was.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot say enough positive things about Amy! She is not only an amazing photographer and artist, but also an absolute gem of a person. She did our engagement and wedding photos, and we loved every second of working with her. We were planning everything from out of state, which can be a challenge, but she made it easy and stress-free. Amy was easy to communicate with throughout the whole process, and you could tell she was genuinely excited to be working with us and be a part of our special day. Our first time meeting her in person was during our engagement photo session and we instantly felt comfortable with her. As for the pictures, we absolutely loved them! They exceeded all expectations, and we cannot stop looking at them. Our jaws dropped with each one when looking at them for the first time. Her skills are incredible, and we could not believe the pictures were ours. She has a special eye for getting the perfect angle, backdrop, lighting, etc. She also gets a good mixture of the typical posed pictures, but also capturing raw emotions. We would definitely recommend her and hope to get pictures with her again someday!

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?)

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.

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.

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.

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!

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).

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! We plan on working with Madison for every chapter in the future and you should too. Investing in her work was the best choice I made -A 2024 Bride

Through Lindsey's Lens Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. Lindsey's communication throughout the planning process was perfect - she was always very clear about what information she needed from me, and her reminder emails were extremely helpful in keeping me organized and on track. I've only received photo previews so far, but even those are stunning. Lindsey's attention to detail and artistic eye are unmatched, and I could not be happier with our choice of photographer. On the wedding day itself, Lindsey meshed incredibly well with all of our guests and brought a fun, relaxed energy that made the formal photo sessions fly by smoothly. The photos feel vibrant, organic and full of joy. I can't recommend Through Lindsey's Lens highly enough for wedding photography!
