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.

My top priorities for my wedding were to have lots of fun, good food, booze, and great pictures to remember it by. Cory delivered with the fun memories and the epic photos. The whole process with Cory was great from start to finish. I couldn't recommend him more

We're husband and wife destination wedding and elopement photographers and videographers based in Cleveland, Ohio, traveling as much as possible. We’re here to be your photographic memory, capturing you honestly and naturally so you can give your attention to the people and moments that matter most. 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
Hiring Carly and Casey was one of our best wedding decisions. I could rave about their photos and videos, but their work speaks for itself. They managed to capture every detail of our wedding—location, small details, and most importantly the emotions of the day. Nothing was missed. BUT, when you hire Drzazga Photo, you’re hiring them for a lot more than just their amazing photos and videos-- Something I didn't realize was so important until the day of our wedding. Carly and Casey come prepared, organized, and with years of experience. They scoped out the venue prior to our arrival and knew exactly where we should go for family photos and bridal portraits based on the lighting and given timeline. This cut down on SO MUCH potential chaos. We decided to follow their advice on photo location, and definitely did not regret it. They know what they are doing. They are efficient and knew exactly what shots they wanted for both photos and video. There was minimal time spent on “posing” photos which allowed for so many more photos in our gallery and more time for us to enjoy our families. So, hire them, fully trust them, and you will NOT be disappointed.

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

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!

We found Juniett & Julian from word-of-mouth to have a photoshoot to celebrate a milestone and we were just amazed at what they came up with! 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! Before Coordinating a time and place was easy, they're very flexible and timely! During They have a great eye in choosing lighting that best captures your features which is apparent when you see the final product. After Received the finalized pictures in a timely manner :) Personalities Gotta say this is the highlight of working with Juniett and Julian! They are very sweet, thoughtful, and a lot of fun to work with. We also had lots of laughs, oh the bloopers! In summary, if you need a photoshoot, these are your people!

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.

Jarrod was so professional and made it so easy and fun to take photos that captured our essence and our love. The photos of our special day are now displayed in our home and continue to be a priceless reminder of one of the best days of our lives. Can’t recommend Jarrod enough - thanks for everything 11/10 !!!

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 was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. Their communication style was consistently professional and timely, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly impressive - their talented team captured the fun and magic of our special day from start to finish. We were so thrilled with the photos from our initial small, intimate backyard celebration (hi COVID) that we ended up using them again two years later for our big wedding party. The From the Hip team made us feel comfortable and confident, and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories they preserved for us.

Welcome to "We Do Weddings," where love meets artistry, and moments are forever preserved. We're Jared and Quinn, not just business partners, but a couple who share a deep passion for capturing the most cherished memories of your special day. Our journey into the world of wedding photography and videography began as a shared dream—a dream that brought together our love for storytelling, our appreciation for timeless elegance, and our fascination with the candid, unscripted moments that make every love story unique.

We had our engagement photos taken by We Do Weddings and had a great experience. My wife and I weren't set on a good location, but Jared and Quinn had a couple of suggestions and Freestone Park turned out perfect. They also arrived early and had a couple spots in mind to shoot at, which I really appreciated since it was a warm day and that expedited the process. The shoot was casual and surprisingly fun. They worked quickly but we never felt rushed. They gave great direction (including some pictures of what they were looking for at times) which turned out great. We just got the photos back and my wife and I were blown away. They turned out beautifully and we are so happy with them. The entire experience was a joy and the end result was exactly what we were hoping for.

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.

She isn't all about "her shots" or the industry trends, she is first and foremost an advocate for meaningful, memorable celebrations, and is deeply in tune with the vision of her couples. She has an eye for detail and each photo is equally candid in emotion and composed like art. Her knowledge and expertise far exceeds many other photographers in the industry and I would highly recommend her to any couple looking to elope or host an intimate wedding that feels completely true to them.

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!

Hey y’all! We’re Meg & Kevin! We are seekers of wonder – dreamers of moments that cause your heart to race. Moments bursting with adventure that make you feel fully alive and reminded of just how magical this human existence is. This is why we are elopement photographers! We help you plan the wedding day of your dreams! Where your memories come first and you get to have a blast marrying your best friend!

June 8th had finally arrived and we were BEYOND excited to get our elopement underway. We had spoke with Meg and Kevin several times over the phone to talk over all the details of the big day— all the conversations helped build our anticipation of the big day. They were SO invested in ensuring we had the best, most memorable, elopement day possible. We received our sneak peak while we were on mini-moon in Destin and we were overwhelmed with excitement at how good they were. We even joked that if all we had were the 60 or so pictures in the sneak peak we would be content. However, upon the arrival of our full gallery, we were obsessed with them! We were so emotional as we felt we were reliving our big day. Meg and Kev’s ability to capture the raw beauty of nature and our raw emotions are second to none! There are so many wonderful pictures, we are going to struggle picking our favorites to print for an album. They are so so SO beautiful and amazing! Meg and Kevin made the elopement super fun to where the pictures did not feel forced or posed. Almost as if we were on a hike with our besties and getting married at the same time. They went above and beyond to accommodate us—from prior prep with location choices, activity suggestions.. to day of things such as having a wagon for things we could not fit in our hiking packs. They were awesome! One hard thing in regard to planning, was being out of state and not being able to see the locations before picking them. Not to worry though, once we settled on a site, Meg and Kev hiked it ahead of time to get current pics of the location along with timing the day out with the required additional hiking. They built trust and confidence with us to ensure that everything would go smoothly. Lastly, since it was just the two of us, we wanted an officiant to make it feel a little more official. Kevin CRUSHED it as an officiant. He took bits and pieces from our phone convos to the surveys we filled out to make it personable. It was SO well done. We still chose to exchange personally written vows, in a different location apart from the ceremony (to fit our hermit personalities) while Meg and Kev captured the moment from afar. Overall— we could not be happier!!
