Lizzie Tilles Photography 

5.0

Ridgway, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

My journey as a photographer started with taking photos of friends, old and new, at festivals. I fell in love with documenting the joyful energy at these events. Weddings and elopements remind me so much of those experiences- friends dancing together under the stars, laughter, speaking openly about love for one another, and truly enjoying life’s most meaningful moments. These days I draw a lot of my inspiration from the incredible mountain ranges all around me, but my biggest source of inspiration is my amazing clients and their connection with each other. That’s my story. Now I want to hear yours!

Lizzie is hands down one of the most talented photographers I have ever had the privilege of working with! She has such a magical eye for catching the most beautiful light and I swear as I look through our photos from that special day it looks straight our of a fairy tale. We traveled over 6 hours specifically so she could capture our day and I couldn't have been more thrilled and in utter awe of the final outcome. She was extremely professional and patient with us and she made sure to capture every tine detail so it will be in our hearts for ever. I highly recommend Lizzie Tiles Photography to anyone in the Colorado or surrounding area!

I cannot recommend Cassidy and Izadora enough! I had the honor of having Cassidy film my elopement in Silverton earlier this month and the result is beyond anything I could've ever dreamt of, not to mention the quick turnaround time! Cassidy brought such a calm and positive energy to our special day and made sure to capture all the small things.

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

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!

With my love for photography and growing up with such a large, rowdy family, it's no wonder I found my career in professional photography. Then marrying my goofball of a husband and having two hilarious and awesome kiddos, the importance of remembering every little moment has only grown as I experience each new adventure of my life. I get so much joy and gratification from the opportunity of providing such meaningful work to others-- I am so passionate about those intentional and authentic moments. And I like to have fun and laugh, too!

Marlee was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, Marlee's relatable and trustworthy communication style put us at ease and made the whole experience engaging. On the day of, Marlee's punctuality, thoughtfulness, and flexibility were clear as she seamlessly captured all the special moments. Our wedding party and family members raved about how comfortable and easy it was to work with her. Marlee was truly one of the highlights of our wedding, and I've already recommended her to two other friends who had the same wonderful experience. Marlee is much more than a photographer to me now - she's also become a friend, and I can't wait to have her capture all our life moments going forward. I would recommend Marlee to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you, Marlee!! You're the best.

My husband and I had to re-plan our wedding in just a few weeks because of COVID. Amanda was flexible, creative, and supportive in helping us re-plan. She captured the light and scenery perfectly for all of our photos. Amanda gave us just enough guidance, and made us feel completely comfortable during all of our shots. We had all of our photos within 2 weeks and were able to purchase beautiful prints directly from her site. Once we had our photos, my husband said "she made us look like models!" She truly did. We would absolutely recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a kind and professional photographer.

We are Joe & Rhonda Hendricks, the owners of Elope Telluride. We do it all here, from the photography to planning to location scouting. We’ve been married 13 years, and have a son named Austin! For 10 years, we worked hard to establish a wedding successful wedding photography business in Nashville, TN before moving to Colorado. It was here that we decided to shift our business from the stressful wedding industry, to adventure elopements! Joe combined his award-winning wedding photography, with his talent for landscapes… and mountain elopement photography fit like a glove.

I am a wedding officiant and have had the pleasure of working with Rhonda and Joe from Elope Telluride on many weddings for over two years. They are hands down my favorite wedding planners/elopement specialists to work with. I always look forward to their bookings because they are such a joy to work with and for. Joe and Rhonda are both highly organized, creative and kind. Joe's photography speaks for itself, true art. He captures not only the big moments but the subtle moments, the grin of a child, the pride in a father's eyes, the glow of the bride and the awe seen in the face of the groom. They put couples and guests at ease and the ceremonies are peaceful, beautiful and exquisite. They clearly love what they do.

He was so helpful both leading up to our wedding day and on the day itself - we gave him a tight timeline the day of and he handled it so professionally and still made every moment so fun and stress free. He was honestly such a fun guest to have at the wedding, everyone was talking about how much they loved our photographer! And the photos were just perfect. They captured the love and the fun of the day so beautifully. The photos were unique compared to other photographers but also timeless - we had an incredibly difficult time picking our favorites!

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
Whew, where to begin? It’s impossible to fully capture the exceptional experience you’re guaranteed with Forest Picture Company in just a few words. My husband (!) and I chose a long engagement of just over two years. Knowing how important photographs were to both of us and our families, I started searching early for the perfect photographer/videographer. We wanted a team that would capture our true selves—no stale, stagnant, or overly posed pictures. When we found Forest Picture Company, we knew they were the perfect fit! Throughout the time we've been their clients, they've been incredibly accommodating. Their genuine and laid-back personalities make even the most camera-shy feel comfortable. They recommend doing an engagement shoot, which is included in the overall price. I wouldn’t pass up that opportunity for anything! Not only did we get to meet and hang out with Amanda and Zac before the big day, but we also became comfortable being photographed by them—something neither my husband (again—!!) nor I am generally comfortable with. Because of this, our engagement and wedding pictures turned out so much more authentic. Amanda and Zac are extremely passionate about capturing your big day, and it shows in their work. They send detailed questionnaires after meeting with you to triple-check the details and help develop a comprehensive wedding day timeline. When things don’t go according to plan, Amanda and Zac are flexible and adapt seamlessly. They know how to handle not-so-cooperative family members and friends with grace and discretion. They were so incredibly supportive and helpful when my wedding coordinator had to back out a month prior to the wedding. They also carefully highlight your pictures on their social media pages, making you feel exceptionally special! Their editing style is polished but not overly done. The pictures perfectly reflect the day's look and the overall vibe of the wedding! They add their artistic touch in a way that truly captures the essence of the moment. And mind you, the images I’m sharing are only from the sneak peek! Amanda and Zac incorporate little details and personal touches that make you feel special. They genuinely listen to what you and your partner want, and they are truly the best at what they do. Their dedication and love for their craft shine through in every photo and video they produce. We couldn't have asked for a better team to capture our special day! Because of Amanda and Zac, I now have gorgeous pictures and videos that I can always look back on to remember and cherish the most special day of my life! They gave me the best photo of myself and my father that I have ever seen; this is truly priceless. They captured my husband and I's relationship and personalities perfectly. They captured the silly little moments like my friends dancing in the rain. I will forever cherish and be thankful for these memories that I get to keep!! If you are planning a unique, intentional ceremony and reception and want photographers who can capture that vibe, this is your sign to look no further! Book Forest Picture Company! Thank you so much Amanda and Zac! -Nic and Amy

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!

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

She offered tips on where to start our photoshoot and was willing to drive around to multiple locations to capture my vision. The photos are BEAUTIFUL! It ended up pouring on us halfway through our photoshoot but Katie had cute umbrellas ready and the weather didn't phase her! She immediately thought of creative ways to continue our photoshoot and she was so patient when we wanted to involve our dog in some photos.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!
