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.

Couldn't be happier with this vendor. They did our engagement shoot as well and all of our photos have been stunning. Not only are they responsive and friendly, our photography & videography team went above and beyond for us. My husband and I can get a little shy and awkward in front of the camera having to pose so it was nice to have someone give us great direction and posing tips.

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!!

Carmen did engagement photos for my fiance and I (she’ll also be doing our wedding photos) and we are beyond impressed!! They turned out better than we could have hoped and have us excited for our wedding day photos. Carmen was prompt and responsive prior to the session. During the session, she provided guidance as well as listened to our ideas for poses. Afterwards, she sent us a few sneak peak photos and then got us the remainder incredibly quickly (within a week!). Although I am very happy with her editing of our photos as is, Carmen did mention that we could request another filter if we had wanted. Highly recommend!!

She was great to work with and was very responsive with questions. She was always timely and organized. We first met with her for our engagement photos. We are both a little awkward around a camera but Amy got some amazing shots and helped us pose really naturally and with some natural cues and poses. We absolutely loved our fall engagement photos. Amy did an amazing job capturing our wedding as well. She was amazing at capturing natural moments. She asked for a detailed shot list – this helped her run through all of the family photos quickly. She sent us a sneak peak of some photos the day after the wedding – which was awesome. We cannot wait to get the final shots back.

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!

Katie is an exceptional photographer & person. She made everything so easy, from initially meeting with us to talk about it wedding, booking, and her wealth of experience in advising us on what to wear, how to pose, how to feel comfortable in front of the camera, and how to enjoy ourselves throughout the process. 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. Book her; you will not regret it. Per my wedding party, “Katie is the real MVP.” We love her.

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 was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the start, Katie's communication was consistent, compassionate, and timely. Her high-quality, beautiful work truly captured the special moments of our micro wedding in the mountains. Katie's encouragement and photography skills were invaluable, and when our dog accidentally ruined the photo book, she happily recreated it for us. We would highly recommend Katie Blondin Photography to any couple getting married in the Denver area!

Lo Anderson creates a warm, inviting experience leaving you with timeless photos that will last forever! 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.

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).

Madison is the absolute best! She captured my bridal and wedding photos and all of the pictures turned out amazing! I was pretty nervous for my bridal photos but she was really helpful with posing and making it not feel awkward and they turned out great! As for the wedding photos, I don’t think anything could top the pictures she took! She’s truly amazing at what she does! I am so glad I reached out to her for my wedding! The pictures all turned out perfect and she was also very organized throughout the planning process as well. She shares tips and things I likely wouldn’t have thought of leading up to the big day! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a photographer! Adding some pics below so you can see how great she is!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

I’m McKenzie, a photographer who embraces my couples who desire physical visual memories of their connection at any level, so you can have the stages of your relationship captured to look back on and remember all of the little things that feel so big; the way they brush your hair out of your face or beam at how beautiful you are, or even the smallest thing like a hand on your thigh. All of these things help you feel exactly how you felt in that moment. If you are here, you desire a photo gallery that makes you feel something.

Wow, where do I begin?? When going through photographers in the Minnesota area for engagements, it was a very overwhelming process! I somehow stumbled upon Mckenzie’s website and immediately knew she was the person I wanted to take our photos!! I truly believe her personality, warmth and comfort is beautifully portrayed through the photos she takes! You can tell how comfortable and relaxed my fiancé and I were and it truly felt just like another close friend taking pictures of us! Nothing was awkward or uncomfortable. It was probably one of the best experiences we’ve ever had!! I could not be happier with how these photos turned out and how much effort and time she put into editing and making sure everything was absolutely perfect and beautiful for us! I would 100% recommend McKenzie to anybody looking to get any sort of photography done of themselves or with their partner!!

Ashlyn photographed our wedding in fall of 2024, and from the very beginning, she was wonderful to work with. Not only did she capture our day perfectly, she also helped make it go as smoothly as it did, often providing personal and creative suggestions. She was amazingly flexible with our crazy schedule leading up to the wedding and was a great communicator. It was so easy to work with her and she made us feel comfortable and grounded throughout the whole process. My husband and I can’t recommend her enough!

What turns good wedding photos into unforgettable ones? It’s not just about documenting the day — it’s about capturing you at your most real: relaxed, confident, and completely present. That’s exactly what I’m here to do. I create wedding photos that feel true to who you are, so every time you see them—on your walls or in an album with family—you’re instantly taken back to those beautiful, once-in-a-lifetime memories.

Jon Southwell Photography was an absolute pleasure to work. He was helpful in answering all of our questions and guiding us through the photography process. His knowledge was amazing and he captured every special moment perfectly, even better than we had imagined. The final photos are truly stunning and we highly recommend him to any couple looking for a talented and professional photographer.

Hi I’m MacKenzi a native to Colorado and a creative at heart. I’ve been capturing love stories and lifestyle sessions for over five years, all around the country. In that time I have won national photography awards and have been featured in numerous magazines and blogs. When I’m not behind the camera I’m behind a desk on my way to law school specializing in business law. I’m also a mama to a beautiful baby boy who inspires me everyday. You can always catch me watching re-runs of The Office and eating as much street tacos as I can.

From the moment we first spoke with MaKenzi, we knew she was the perfect photographer for our wedding. Her communication style was easy, positive, and excited, and she was always respectful of our needs and creative in her approach. On our wedding day, MaKenzi's work was truly impactful - she kept the mood high, made sure we got all the photos we requested, and even came up with fun additional ideas that resulted in stunning shots. Having seen her incredible work at my sister's wedding almost 4 years ago, we knew MaKenzi was the only photographer we wanted, and she exceeded our already high expectations. We are thrilled with the beautiful memories she captured of our special day.
