Local to Colorado & native to Indiana I'm a photographer dedicated to helping couples bring their wedding vision to life. I believe that your love story is anything but boring, and your photos should reflect that. With 8 years of experience, I’ve captured clients through fun prompts and welcoming energy. I’m not gonna lie I’m a strong believer in truly connecting with my client. Yes I send ‘<3’ in my emails. Yes I’d love to fan girl over your wedding deets with you! Mimosas? Coffee? I’m down

My fiancé and I had been doing all this research to find a photographer and our wedding was fast approaching. It was March and our wedding is in July. We came across Sara, found out that she would be moving to Colorado and was actually in Colorado until Friday morning (it was Wednesday night). We have a wonderful phone call just getting to know her and her business and decided to book her the next day. She worked promptly to make time to shoot our engagement photos even though it was her boyfriend’s mom’s birthday. We just got the photos the other day and they are stunning. They capture our hearts, emotion, and beauty! So glad that we booked Sara for our wedding day! We know her photography will be amazing!! She is fun and easy to work with, obviously experienced, and just personable and makes the whole experience more enjoyable!

Having worked with Justina before, we were always impressed by her cool, calm, and thorough communication style. Her unique and creative approach to photography perfectly captured the theme and feel of our wedding. Justina was running around during the reception, elusively getting the best candid and detail shots. Her attention to detail was amazing from making sure we got every family photo we had discussed to capturing every special moment at the reception. We were grateful for the time she took to walk through all the details and timeline with us leading up to the big day - it really helped everything run smoothly. Justina's great spirit and ability to make us feel at ease throughout the process resulted in photos that we'll cherish forever. We highly recommend Justina to any couple looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer for not only your wedding, but engagement photos as well!

Choosing Drozephotographs as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we first spoke with her we were impressed by her skills and how easy going she was working with clients. She was understandable and checked in with us to go over our wedding day. She even helped us make a guideline we were comfortable with to help on our big day. Her work is simply beautiful, perfect, and incredibly unique - she captured the most natural and beautiful moments of our special day! Drozephotographs helped us create a schedule so we didn't have to worry about a thing, and made sure we felt at ease in front of the camera, providing helpful tips and poses that made our photos stand out.

Somehow when we finally decided to put a date on the calendar we reached out and Jessica still remembered us like we just talked recently. Working with her has been so easy and smooth sailing. She is crazy organized and very responsive along with an open mind and helped with some accommodations to make our day super special!

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

We’ve known Kaitlyn for a while and were so honored to have her capture our wedding events! She was there for the proposal, engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and the wedding day! Kaitlyn is so fun to be around and so incredibly talented! We really appreciated her “fly on the wall” approach so we could just enjoy ourselves and live in the moment without having to worry about posing. Looking forward to having her capture many more of our milestones in the future :)

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

We had the pleasure of working with MoonTide Media for our wedding photography/videography. Shannon and Ally were an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues. If you're looking for amazing photographers/videographers who produce breathtaking images while also making you feel at ease and comfortable on your wedding day, look no further than MoonTide Media.

Hi! I’m Jules. I like to think of myself as an artistic storyteller. I love capturing LOVE and have been a professional photographer for 12+ years (don’t let the baby face fool you). I want to know what makes you & your partner tick. Every couple is different & I love making your photos feel like YOU. (& for you to feel super hot, obv.) I would love to share full galleries with you and would be HONORED to create art with you on your dreamiest day! Storytelling is why I do this day in and day out. We don’t do boring over here ;)

We are so so SO grateful we found Jules/Datura Photo to shoot our wedding. She did an incredible job capturing the emotions and the overall story of our day and we couldn’t be happier with ouyr wedding photos! We also utilized Jules for our videography and we are in love with our wedding video. You can really tell when you watch our video and look at our photos that we had a photographer who just loves love. She told our love story so beautifully. You can also tell that she knows so much about composition, lighting, etc. She does a great job with giving directions for where to stand and poses to do for those of us who know nothing about getting our picture taken. Not only is she an incredibly talented and gifted artist in her photography, but she is a total gem to work and spend the day with. She was also super communicative and professional throughout the entire process, went above and beyond and stayed late to get pics at our after party, and as an added bonus she was amazing with the kids in our wedding party and getting them to smile for the camera! We could literally go on and on about how amazing she was. We would highly recommend booking Datura Photo for any wedding, but especially if you want your photos to feel artsy, vintage, romantic, and emotional.

Even with the laughs, he was professional and captured every moment perfectly. 11/10 recommend!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions.

Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

ap FILM & PHOTO was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From our very first interaction, they were accommodating, direct, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the process. Their communication was top-notch, and they made sure to understand our specific vision and preferences. On the day of the wedding, they seamlessly captured all the special moments with a keen eye for detail, resulting in truly beautiful and couple-specific photographs. What we appreciated most was their focus on body positivity - they made both my husband and I feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is reflected in the stunning, natural-looking images with retouches where we might not have photographed perfectly but had genuine reactions. Ashlee isn’t the least expensive but the quality photos and detail provided was unmatched, and we are thrilled with the final product. We highly recommend ap FILM & PHOTO to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

Anna is absolutely incredible and such a pleasure to work with. She really knows how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her work is absolutely phenomenal as well. I have never been so pleased with a photographer before! Her editing is beautiful and she really can just capture emotions in her photos. Her photography became my favorite aspect of my wedding. She did not only our wedding photos, but a few other shoots as well, including our engagement photos. She is honestly the only person I would trust/recommend to capture your sweet wedding memories. I honestly don’t have enough words to describe how much I cherish the photos that she has taken for the special moment in our lives.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Kiera! She has been our go-to photographer for all of life’s special moments—our wedding, maternity, newborn photos, and family portraits. Kiera is incredibly understanding, patient, and accommodating. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and she truly goes above and beyond to ensure her clients are happy. I just got married this past weekend and spent over seven hours with Kiera. Not only did she capture breathtaking photos, but she also helped keep the day running smoothly and put me at ease as a bride, which was invaluable! Her calming presence, friendly demeanor, and professionalism made everything feel effortless. One of the standout features of working with Kiera is the convenience of her online album. After each session, we get quick access to our photos, where we can easily view them and select our favorites. This allows us to have full control over the final selections, ensuring that we get the exact photos we want to have edited. I highly recommend Kiera to all my family and friends. Whether you’re in New Mexico or the surrounding areas, Kiera is the photographer you want. She even travels out of state! We are so grateful to have her and will continue trusting her with all our photography needs.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Chris was great to work with start to finish! He did our engagement photos and then our wedding photos.

He communicated all information in a timely fashion and was always available when I had a question. He worked with my venue and the DJ to ensure all aspects of the wedding day were covered. The pictures turned out great and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our special day! Highly recommend!
