White Umbrella Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Thornton, CO

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.

We were so impressed with David as our photographer! He was great when we had our meeting before and amazing on the day! We had a lot of disappointments with our wedding but David was 100% our favorite vendor. We are in love with the photos we got back, the editing was beautiful and we are so glad to have so many special moments captured. HIGHLY recommend!!

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.

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!

Classic with a Punch. Timeless Imagery, Unparalleled Experience Hi! I’m Christine, a wedding and portrait photographer blending refined, timeless imagery with a human-first approach. I’m all in for the big moments, the quiet ones, and making sure you feel completely taken care of from our first email to your final dance. Based in Colorado, I photograph weddings, engagements, and portraits for couples, families, and individuals of all backgrounds. Your story deserves to be captured with care, creativity, and intention. Let’s make photos that feel like you.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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
Amy was very responsive and accommodating to our micro wedding. I believe I found her on Zola and was very happy to see that she travels to our state for photography sessions and she was familiar with the area. My partner and I were looking for someone to "go with the flow" as we didn't have much planned. Amy balanced our lack of directions with her obvious expertise, helping to capture our day in the most natural way. A guest later commented, "your photographer was good because I never knew my picture was being taken!" In a group of 20 people, that's a skill. We received our photos back exactly on time and I would recommend Amy to anyone. We're so fortunate to have had her capture the memories of our day.

Oh hey! I’m Katie, down-to-earth and down to explore! I'm a Colorado wedding & elopement photographer, adventurer, and cat mom. Let me promise you two things. First: we are going to have a blast! Plenty of people think they’re really awkward, especially for photos. Never fear! I use super fun prompts, simple poses, dumb jokes, and a journalistic approach to capture candid moments and your authentic selves. The second promise that I will do whatever I can to make your life simpler during this process. Whether that is timeline planning, or helping plan your dream elopement. I am always going to be in your corner!

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Katie was by far one of the best decisions my husband and I made for our wedding day!!! We are both professional photographers and videographers so this was a tough decision for us. But the second we found Katie, we knew we needed to hire her. Not only are her pictures clean, crisp, beautifully presented and creative, they are also timeless. We wanted our personalities to shine and she captured our day beyond perfectly. I stare at our photos in awe regularly. Beyond her incredible talent, Katie is truly the most awesome person you will meet. We’ve become good friends who get dinner and play in softball leagues together!!! She brought so much love and light to our day and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I will always hire Katie for our photography needs!!!! And you should too!!!

You deserve to feel celebrated and happy with your closest friends and family while I’m there to capture every detail of it! Lo's desire is to deliver images that allow you to step back into your wedding day and relive your happiest moments. A photographer you can trust and have a connection with!

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!

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.

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?) Taylor Swift is totally onto something here: finding a photographer who can accurately showcase your love story is key. 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.

Katie Blondin Photography shot our Wish Upon a Uedding event, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. From the moment she arrived, Katie’s warm demeanor and professional approach put everyone at ease, allowing her to capture genuine smiles and natural interactions effortlessly. Her attention to detail is remarkable—she didn’t miss a single special moment, from candid expressions to the beautifully composed group shots we’ll treasure forever. What truly sets Katie apart is her intuitive ability to tell a story through her lens; each photograph reflects the emotion and spirit of the day. We’re so grateful for her creativity, patience, and passion, and would highly recommend Katie Blondin Photography to anyone looking for a photographer who can make memories last a lifetime.

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).

From the moment we first reached out to MK Photography, their communication was detailed, quick, and incredibly informative. Madison felt like part of the family from the start - she was so fun to be around and genuinely helped with everything, even going above and beyond her role as a photographer, by the end of it she felt like one of my bridesmaids haha. The final photos were absolutely gorgeous, capturing all the special moments and emotions of our wedding day in a professional and artistic way. The value we received was exceptional, and MK Photography played a huge role in making our day feel so special and memorable. My whole family loved Madison, and we would recommend MK Photography to any couple looking for stunning, fun, and personalized wedding photography.

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.
