We are Amanda and Zac Haigh. We got married too! We are your typical Coloradoans that enjoy a good craft beer, and a long hike. We are Colorado wedding and elopement photographers and filmmakers. We want to go beyond that though-- we want to get to know you and your story. It deserves to be told authentically and beautifully. We are Forest Picture Company, and we are all about serving and creating beautiful images of our unique and adventurous couples in Colorado and anywhere you are! Do you want an experience that is fun and laid back? Well, grab a beer and stick around. We’re so excited you’re here.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to begin with Amanda and Zac. There is so much good, I don’t know where to start! Working with Forest Picture Co was the highlight of the wedding day, besides the getting married part, of course! They were patient and kind to everyone, took their time collecting the groups for photographs, and even worked with the DJ, and climbed on a ladder to get an epic cold sparkler shot on the dance floor that no one was expecting! They went out of their way, every single chance they got, to make us feel like celebrities on our wedding day. They are truly kind, genuine people who deliver on what they promise. That is not always easy to find in the wedding industry these days. Oh, and did I mention that we moved our wedding from Colorado (their home base) to North Carolina…and they still showed up for us!? Working with Amanda and Zac was easily one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process, and we would choose them every single time.

Hello, I'm Tomi! Wedding Photographer based in Denver, Colorado. I capture authentic, creative and emotionally driven wedding moments. My photography style has a good mixture of traditionally posed photos and so many unique candid shots, all edited with the more true-to-life color editing style. My business, Tomi Photopositive, is built around my fun, positive and extrovert personality, that will make you feel comfortable and stress free during your entire wedding day.

Tomi was professional right from the very beginning. From the initial call with him all through the wedding day we could not have asked for a better photographer. A ton of my friends and family said they loved him and wanted details for his future services. His pictures turned out so beautiful, creative and touched on so many of the emotions of the day. He also got them back within 3 weeks from the wedding date which was an outstanding turnaround. He made our day so special, we appreciated his time, his energy and his positive attitude. He was a consummate professional through and through and would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Cheers!

I've been shooting weddings for almost 10 years. I often work with adventurous couples who look beyond what most of the wedding industry is selling and wanna start their own traditions. I've worked in huge east-coast ballrooms, on Mexican beaches, and at the edges of Moab cliffs. And I'll happily travel to wherever you're doing your own damn thing on your wedding day. I focus on capturing your favorite people in the world and giving you images that pull you right back into the feeling of the day. My style is natural, candid, and joyful, with some sassy editorial portraits and a whole lotta crazy dance floor shots.

We want you to have stunning images and the best day of your life and we do everything in our power to deliver both.

Awarded Best of Zola
️️️️️ Choosing Drzazga Photo for our wedding was hands down the BEST decision we made while planning. Since getting our gallery back, we are still getting compliments on how gorgeous and unique our photos turned out. When we met Carly during our engagement session we knew right away that she and Kasey would make us feel comfortable and would be the perfect pair to capture such an important day in our lives. We loved our engagement pictures so much we used them for everything (bridal shower invitations, wedding invitations, rehearsal dinner invitations and thank you cards). I think we looked at them all 1,000 times. They captured our love for each other and excitement so perfectly. Our wedding gallery was like looking at pictures from a fairytale. Our getting ready pictures, portraits, ceremony and reception photos are beautiful. They captured gorgeous pictures of us, but also of our family and friends whom we shared such an important day with. I love thinking about how someday these pictures will be shared with our own children, grandchildren and family. Weeks after our wedding we decided to become puppy parents to an adorable Cavapoo named Teddy. The Drzazga’s have captured such sweet moments of our love story this year. We couldn’t think of a better way to end it than a trip to Cleveland in November for a holiday mini session at their studio, with of course the newest addition to our family, Teddy. Thank you Carly and Kasey for capturing all of the sweet moments of this amazing year. You are truly the best of the best. Love, The Rishers

Amazing lives up to her name. If pictures aren't important to you, go with any photographer. If pictures are important to you, go with Amazing. She was so professional, but fun and attentive. I hardly noticed she was there, and she got every shot I could ask for plus more! We were all so at ease around her. It made photo times go smoothly and easily. We had a pretty low photography budget originally, but the photographers in our range were not living up to our vision. We decided to adjust our budget and that's how we found Amazing. And let me tell you, she is worth every penny. Our friends and family love our photos. We are told regularly that our PHOTOS are beautiful (because there are), not just that we looked beautiful/handsome or that it was a lovely day and a lovely wedding. I really notice the variety of compliments we have received on the photos themselves, not just on us. There is also a noticeable difference in the quality of our photos versus some of the other weddings we have been in recently. Our photos have a crispness and everyone looks perfect in every shot. I don't know how she does it. I cannot express enough how happy I am with our photos. They are absolutely sublime. Thank you, a million times over, Amazing!

From the initial appointment, Lindsay was so warm and friendly - she made the entire process so unbelievably smooth. I never once had to worry or ask for communication - because she was always on top of everything before I had to ask. She was a great resource for us. When it came to the engagement session, ceremony, and reception, Lindsay made us feel so comfortable (we are notoriously awkward in front of a camera & she really made us feel 100% comfortable, which made every event more fun because she could capture our most authentic selves. Any random idea I saw I would ask her about and she was so receptive to it all & catered the entire experience to us (she also gave incredible ideas that fit with our personal style which were some of my favorite shots). Overall - we LOVED working with her & I would not have changed a single thing about her or the process, she did a fabulous job capturing our special days & she acclimated exceptionally to the different styles of each event.

Lisa photographed my sister’s wedding back in 2015 and I had been waiting for my turn to work with her since then! Luck would have it that she was available on our wedding weekend this past September and we were so happy to have the chance to work with her again. We had a small 25-person ceremony in the mountains and Lisa did an amazing job of capturing the spirit of the event and setting up a gorgeous solo shoot for the two of us in the woods. Having Lisa on site with us was like having another member of the family there. She has a unique way of capturing even the smallest moments (that you didn’t even know you wanted photographed) from the best angles. It was also easy to coordinate all of the details with her via email and I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Our approach blends editorial style with a photojournalistic touch, ensuring each moment, from the quiet glances to the grand celebrations, is preserved in its truest form.

The entire process was incredibly seamless, from meeting them, coordinating locations (they have some good locations in mind!), to the actual photos we received. They work with you to ensure you're comfortable before, during, and they are communicative with after the photoshoot while performing final edits to the pics!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

A time capsule of who you are and how you love. Captured on digital, 35mm, and medium format. For those looking for memories, not just images. I am a photographer who is about keeping things fun and lighthearted, reminiscing on moments between you and your partner as well as helping create new ones. My goal is for you to be present on your day and to receive images that aren't just art, but memories to keep. Your images are meant to represent you and that's what I do. Please feel free to inquire on my website!

I’m so glad that we found Elita! She did such a stunning job with our engagement and wedding photos and she was so accommodating with our tight timeline! From the very beginning she provided great ideas to help plan our big day and she was super flexible when weather wasn’t ideal for our engagement photos. She was very communicative and easy to get ahold of too. She made our engagement photo session so much fun so that we got beautiful photos and a great memory all in one! She provided so many sneak peaks that were ready the morning after our engagement photo session and the morning after our wedding so that when we woke up we got to see some of the results right away! Elita did such an amazing job capturing exactly how we were feeling in all of the photos she took. So many guests at our wedding mentioned how sweet she was and how much they liked her too! Generally I feel really awkward in front of a camera but Elita did a great job putting us at ease and giving us prompts that were fun and didn’t feel forced. The photos turned out so dreamy I can hardly even believe they’re ours. She captured all the feelings so perfectly, plus moments and details that I didn’t even realize she caught! It has been so fun going through all of our photos and remembering every bit of our wedding day. She’s seriously so amazing and I’m so happy that we have these beautiful photos to look back on. We can’t wait to work with Elita again because she is so good at what she does and she’s been a pleasure!

Can’t say enough good things + couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos... gallons and I mean GALLONS...of happy tears. Lydia and T shot our engagement (sneaky story you’ll have to ask them about) and the pictures turned out amazing. We had high hopes for our wedding photos and they totally blew us out of the water. The best, and most special part to me, is they captured us- every picture totally embodies me and my husband and what we wanted our wedding to be about. It never felt posed or forced. I think it’s really rare to completely capture who people are through photos-but they got us. It probably doesn’t make sense until you work with them, but when you do ...you’ll understand. I could go on and on about how wonderful these two are and how grateful and thankful I am to have had them at our wedding shooting our most special day! Thank you Lydia and T! People reading the reviews would be so remiss to pass up working with these two for any occasion - they truly are incredible! -Maddie + Ryan

I love photography and the powerful role of active witness that gives me. I am a father and a husband and I know that your wedding day is just the beginning of the crazy wonderful story that your marriage will be. These pictures will be one of the first memories of your life together. I am grateful to have the chance to create something unique and special for people, that will last in time. I believe I was made to tell these stories and I’m sure you are going to love them! Let’s do this!

I’m a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer, and I shoot everywhere from Europe to locally in Denver! My favorite thing about photography is capturing the candid “in-between” moments, real emotions, and when people bring their dogs to their shoots. I work with my clients to create memories that last beyond their wedding day, and deliver photos that capture the fun, romantic and timeless moments so you can re-live them for years to come.

Kelsey was extremely organized and great to work with! Not only did she reach out ahead of time to introduce herself as a fellow vendor at a wedding we both booked, but made absolute magic happen with the flatlays and invitation suite I created for the couple. She also proactively sent me photos, along with a sweet message! I would highly recommend Sunbeam Studio for any bride — I recommend her to all of my couples who ask!

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 had the absolute pleasure of working with Malachi from Shellcreek Photo for our wedding, and we can’t recommend him enough! From the very first meet and greet, he was incredibly professional, taking the time to ask us about what we wanted for our wedding day. His dedication to capturing our wedding was exactly as we imagined was evident throughout the entire process. As someone who had never had professional photos taken before, I was quite nervous about being in front of the camera. However, Malachi put both me and my husband at ease throughout the day. His calm and reassuring presence made us feel so comfortable, and it felt like we were simply enjoying the moment rather than posing for photos. On top of that, Malachi has an incredible eye for detail and a knack for finding unique, off-grid locations that made our photos feel so special and personalized. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and that passion shines through in every photo he takes. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and the beautiful photos we received!

I'm a wedding and engagement photographer who has collaborated with couples from all over the world. I offer a relaxed and conversation-based style of wedding photography because I believe that the best images are the result of communication.

I can't explain how happy we were with Lizzie... the photos she took were absolutely beautiful. I was really impressed that she listened to exactly what we wanted - we definitely didn't want these fake posed photos you often see from weddings and she was perfect at fulfilling that and producing the most natural collection of memories. She really hung back in the background so you never felt you have a camera in your face all day and yet the final results were breathtaking. I haven't had the time to print them yet but I can't wait to have a collage up in the house. We were super impressed by the speed of receiving them all after the day too - within 3-4 weeks max we had already gotten the collection and I must admit I cried when receiving them since they are so beautiful! Sometimes I have some memory issues due to my health and having our wedding day documented so thoroughly and beautifully I can look back anytime and be reminded of how perfect that day was so I am so grateful. Honestly I would recommend Lizzie to anyone. If you are already looking into her site and wondering out of all of the people out there, whether she would be the right photographer for you... just go for it and it will be the best decision you make, I assure you.

After meeting in NYC, Nina & Danny earned their fine art degrees and moved to Denver. In 2009, they combined their passion for photography, and From the Hip Photo was born. Its name is a nod to the style of our images: candid, spontaneous, fresh, playful, and vibrant. Since then, the From the Hip Photo family has grown into the most accomplished crew of visual professionals in Colorado. Julia and Danielle are our dynamic duo of gifted Lead Photographers, bringing energy and artistry to every session we photograph. Lauren, who rose through our internship program to become our Studio Manager, brings a creative mind to our daily operations.

From the Hip Photo is exceptional, friendly and will capture some of your most cherished memories. I recently used FTH for my wedding and they did a fantastic job, not only were the photos delivered to me in a timely manner, but they also snapped heartfelt candids and portraits that I'll keep forever. Their team is quick, efficient and will help achieve your vision (truly they were referencing my shotlist/inspo pics the whole day!) I cannot thank them -- including Lauren and Amber -- enough for their standout work. 10/10 would recommend!

I'm Nicole, an intimate wedding, destination, and elopement photographer passionate about capturing your story, personality, and vision. I hate productions and going through the motions. I invest in you and capture your day true to you!

From the moment we came across Nicoles photography we knew we wanted to have her as our photographer for our engagement photos and our elopement.Her photography is amazing but also, her attention to detail and support went a BEYOND what we expected. She sent us helpful guides for planning our elopement, was very communicative through the whole process and most importantly genuinely supported what we wanted for our special day and took the time to understand what that was. We felt like we had a friend with us all day! We enjoyed her company and she made us feel so comfortable. Nicole was very adamant that these photos should show who we are as a couple and should feel natural and unposed and that is exactly what we received. We are so happy with our photos and our experience with Nicole. We are looking forward to hanging our photos around our home, sharing them with friends and cherishing them for a lifetime!

I love the beauty of nature, people, natural light, and raw emotion. Which is one of the things I am most proud of about the work I produce. I strive to capture the beauty of these things in my work each and every day. I started photography when I was in high school, and was instantly connected to the feeling of capturing memories that last forever. I have always been a creative mind, so finding a passion that makes me feel exactly where I am supposed to be is so rewarding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Run, don't walk, to secure Rachel as your wedding or elopement photographer! My husband and I are BEYOND ecstatic with Rachel's work, and we haven't even received our full wedding gallery yet! She was so great to work with for our engagement shoot, and even better when it came to the wedding day. Rachel is very chill personality-wise, but works efficiently and quick when she is photographing. I think it probably took her 30 minutes max to do our engagement shoot which was great considering it was snowing and freezing out that day! She captured the best most magical photos, especially considering the weather, and we were so excited for the actual wedding after our initial session. She even delivered our full engagement gallery only days after the session, not to mention she was sick and managed to crank them all out in that time frame! The actual wedding day was the same, if not better, experience. Rachel made sure to listen to both mine and my now husband's requests and direction and coordinated the family photos with such ease and professionalism. She really is a photographer, hype woman and sidekick all in one! It never felt awkward shooting with her which was something both me and my husband were worried about since we had never had professional photos taken before. If you are going to work with Rachel, do not worry about being awkward at all! She puts you at ease and makes you feel like you're just hanging out with your person. Rachel sent a bunch of preview photos a few days after the wedding and we are over the moon with them! I wasn't expecting to receive so many, but was definitely pleasantly surprised. We had a fun time sharing the photos with our family and friends and received the BEST feedback - everyone loves them and is so impressed! We seriously can't wait to receive the full gallery and re-live the most amazing day all over again! Thank you for being so talented and just an awesome person Rachel. We will be shouting your name from the rooftops to anyone seeking a wedding photographer in the future!

Always down for adventures, non traditional weddings, and travel!

Y'all... I don't even know what to say about how much I love Laura and her husband, Drew. Not only did they capture our wedding day brilliantly, their presence actually made the day even better! Laura is exceptionally great to work with. Her paperwork is easy and prompt, she responds to emails quickly, and will even set up a virtual call to discuss whatever you would like. Her prices are fair for the amount of photos you receive and the quality of her work and service. Laura did our engagement photos and wedding photos. Scheduling our engagement session was easy and stress free (as was the wedding, but you probably already guessed that!). We met her in Miami since she was down there anyway. Laura was down for an adventure so we went to a botanical garden where we got eaten by mosquitos but Laura was positive and having fun the whole time. The photos are GORGEOUS and we used them for all of our wedding materials and website. We have gotten so many compliments on all of our photos! Laura and Drew arrived a day in advance of our wedding and let us know when they arrived so we had peace of mind. They were on time to our wedding (if not early) and stayed until they were contracted to leave, not a minute early. They were having so much fun at our wedding and captured so many amazing moments. As a note, they are super fun but also take their work very seriously and were busting their butts the whole day to make sure they caught every precious moment. Laura and Drew made us feel so comfortable. They are hilarious and go-with-the-flow but also make sure they stick to the timeline and are diligent about getting every picture you want. They arranged all of our bridal party and family photos, making sure they all looked good. Laura and Drew are also very sensitive to family matters. We have some complicated family dynamics and they handled them like champions, making sure our day was stress free. It is clear that Laura and Drew are committed to making sure the couple has a wonderful stress-free day. Laura carried around my extra makeup all day so I could blot my face and I'm pretty sure Drew served us drinks at one point because we were thirsty taking pictures. All of our friends are obsessed with Laura and Drew - we still talk about how much we love them several months later - because they are actually that wonderful. Laura and Drew are EXTREMELY inclusive. We are a same-sex couple and were so comfortable with them. All of their paperwork is gender neutral, which is not something I can say for our other vendors (no shade, it's just the truth) and it was sincerely appreciated. Some of our friends use they-them pronouns and Laura was sure to get this information in advance so she could make sure to call everyone what they prefer. We received a surprisingly large sneak peak of photos the day after our wedding. All of our friends and family were shocked at how quickly we got all those photos, but it's because Laura is an editing machine. We got all our other photos back well within the timeframe provided. There are literally hundreds of photos and every single one is perfection. Laura even did a little bit of photoshopping that I requested, which I really appreciated. Long story short, look no further for the wedding (or other event!) photographer of your dreams. Laura and Drew are truly one of a kind (well, two of a kind) and they will make your wedding day exceptional! I wish I could get married again so I can hang out with them more.
