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!!

Hi! ​I'm Ivy, The Pic Chick! I've been a wedding and portrait photographer for about 18 years! I am from Arizona, but now live in Colorado! I am married to an awesome dude, I have 2 tiny humans! I do everything I can to make the photo experience fun and pressure-free, to help your wedding day go by in a timely manner. While you are enjoying the moments of your big day I’ll be snapping away freely, capturing the wonderful timeless memories! I'd love to meet up with you to chat more, let's grab a coffee sometime!

Awarded Best of Zola
Ivy has photographed four major life events for my family now. From our engagement to wedding to maternity to newborn photos, she captured so many of our most important memories that we can treasure forever so beautifully. In planning a wedding with a goal of staying under Colorado’s average wedding cost, I was deep in the Internet and Instagram profiles looking for a photographer that was affordable without sacrificing quality. I found two and was leaning more toward Ivy anyway, but blindly showed my fiancé at the time samples of the two photographers’ portfolios. He immediately chose Ivy’s without knowing anything about who the photographer was, cost, or any other details. He gave the reasoning that her photos were so vibrant and real-looking and he wanted our days captured in the same way. As soon as we got on the phone for our consultation call with Ivy, we immediately clicked. She then made us feel so comfortable in the engagement session and we really got to get to know each other in preparation for our big wedding day. She then requested the wedding day schedule and even helped us make decisions to build that schedule based on not only what would give us the best photo opportunities but also what would work better for us based on what she knew and getting to know us. Because she has so much experience and cares so deeply about her clients, she actually doubled as a second wedding coordinator for the day-of. She made the day flow so stress-free and took a lot of responsibility upon herself to make sure the day was absolutely perfect. Her portfolio speaks for itself as far as photography quality, her abilities, and capturing the best moments, but it’s the personal touch that you don’t get to see in her portfolio at earns her the highest five star rating. Even in the shoots outside of our wedding, she was so gentle and patient with our dogs and newborn baby, putting us so ease in what could have been stressful situations prepping for a photo session. I want to yell from the mountain tops that everybody should trust Ivy when looking for a photographer for those important moments. If you’re reading this review in order to select a photographer, you can go ahead and just book her now. After the most important photo shoots of our lives over the past year I can promise you that you won’t regret it.

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.

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!!!

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.

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).

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!

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.

She is so talented, kind and professional and guided us so well before, during, and after the wedding to make sure that we ended up with photos that we will love and cherish for the rest of our days! Michelle was unflappable the day of the wedding and jumped in on photo ops that we had arranged withthe DJ, but had forgotten to tell Michelle. Michelle is able to capture the beauty of all of her subjects and I felt like every image was so flattering (which says a lot as someone who doesn't love to see pictures of herself)!

Dmitriy and his photography/videography team were the glue that brought our wedding day together - from the moment they arrived at our venue for pre-ceremony photos, they flawlessly executed on our vision for details photos, couples' portraits, family photos, and wedding party photos. They brought a combination of organization and spontaneity to the day, capturing special moments from our ceremony, reception details, and unforgettable memories with our immediate family & close friends. Dmitriy and his team went above and beyond the whole day, always "there" to capture a sweet moment from our family elders, an unplanned slow dance between my husband and I, and live action shots from the dance floor. Dmitriy's lead photographer even laid on the ground during our reception so he could capture photos of us all dancing together during the faster songs. After the wedding, Dmitriy and team delivered 250 exceptional "sneak peak" photos for us in record time. Not only was this such an efficient delivery on timing, but even the sneak peak photos captured quintessential moments from throughout the day. We couldn't have asked for a better photography/videography team, and this is even before seeing our "full" photo album videos. We strongly recommend Light Fusion and were asked by multiple others who are getting married in CO in the future for Dmitriy's contact info so they could get in touch as well!

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.

I highly recommend hiring David as your photographer!!! We had hired him as our wedding photographer for 120 guests in August! He was very communicative throughout the whole process, starting with initial meetings on understanding what our vision of our day was— highlighting what would be the important things to us to photograph, especially as we had a very religious ceremony. On the day of our wedding, he brought so much warmth and ease into the busy day! He was very assertive to direct our large family and bridal party during photos and was very creative/directive in all of our poses. I absolutely loved how he was with us the whole day, being behind the scenes but guiding what we do, very friendly, strongly professional, and all of his photos came back to us ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! They were such high quality and immensely beautiful. I HIGHLY recommend having David be apart of your biggest day, you will not regret his craftsmanship and partnership.

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!! I’m just floored above how candid and beautiful and incredible these shots are thank you again so much, you truly made this a magical experience!!

Ashlyn and Brandon were lovely to work with for our wedding photos. We had an engagement session with them a few weeks before the wedding and Ashlyn was extremely helpful with posings and different locations, especially since my partner and I are not very good at figuring that stuff out. At the wedding she and Brandon were both very good at corralling family members and ensuring that we got all of the shots we wanted as well as some we didn't know we wanted. We got a first look at some select photos about 2 weeks after the wedding and had all of our photos about a month later. All in all, working with Ashlyn was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

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.

It’s hard to put into words how grateful we are for Jon Southwell Photography. He didn’t just document our wedding — he truly captured the feeling of it. Every laugh, every hug, every happy tear. Looking through our photos brings the entire day flooding back in the best possible way. Jon was also incredibly kind and respectful throughout the entire day — not just to us, but to our guests and other vendors as well. You can tell he genuinely cares about his work, and it shows in every single image. We’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Jon, from the bottom of our hearts.

Hi, I'm Zara — a Colorado-based photographer with over 10 years of experience capturing weddings, engagements, and cultural celebrations. I blend natural light, candid emotion, and timeless composition to create photos that feel as real as your love. From intimate elopements to vibrant events, I provide a calm, welcoming presence and images you'll cherish forever. All love and identities are celebrated here. Let's create something unforgettable together.

Zara is talented and kind! She did an amazing job at our photos and frankly gave us way too many amazing photos to choose from! She was very detail oriented and researched the area and had reference photos for us to use for poses; she also allowed our goofiness to pull through with our axolotl onesies, as well as having perfectly professional engagement photos alongside them. She unfortunately was in a car accident and missed the first designated time, but she made up for it immensely and was prompt to reschedule the session. She also edited most of the photos she sent, well over 100, while I have heard from other people that their photographers only had them pick 5 or so favorites for the photographer to go in to edit. She sent back the photos after just one week, and we are looking forward to her photographing our wedding next year and will update this review following that.

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.

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.
