I don't even know if I have the words.... We feel SO LUCKY to have hired you. I went into our engagement session feeling nervous and self-conscious and awkward. You guys made both of us feel comfortable and that session turned out to be so much fun! Those portraits came out beautifully! Then, oh the wedding! I could not have asked for a better overall experience as far as the photography went. We loved having you there. There were moments I completely forgot you were around and alas! We have photos you took without us noticing. From the most special moments to the silly, fun, dance floor pics - you captured so many memories for us and our family and friends. We can't thank you enough for that!! BUT... the icing on the cake. When you guys said "Do you want to go get storm pics?" we had no idea what was in store. We still can't believe how amazing those lightning shots are! Everyone we show them to gasp. Thank you thank you thank you for making this part of our life together so beautiful and for capturing so much for us. After all of that, we couldn't fathom considering anyone else for senior portraits! Caleb's are as amazing as we knew they would be and we can't wait to see Ian's next year! I'll be reaching out for some professional headshots at some point and have recommended you to EVERYONE we know is looking for a photographer. We can't fully express our gratitude. We would not have changed a thing.

I’m Austin, your dream wedding photographer. I started taking photos in high school for my school newspaper waaaay back when and have never had a bad day taking photos since.

I love meeting new people and making that connection with my couples that makes me feel like I’m part of the family. I love sharing my work and having my clients freak out over how much they adore their photos. That’s the very best.

Looking for the very best in affordable wedding photography in Colorado? Look no further! Yellow Paddle does the hard work of finding the most talented up-and-coming wedding photographers in Colorado. Don’t just take our word for it: Our Reviews speak for themselves! With Yellow Paddle you can have it all! Pick your affordable wedding package and your wedding photographer for half the price of most professional photographers. Be kind to your budget and still get amazing wedding photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin--how about with how hard it was to pick ONLY ten photos to include with this review?!? When we purchased Yellow Paddle's 1.5 photographer package, I was already over the moon. Having a second shooter, even for part of the day, was something I never dreamed I could afford, and it was so exciting to find a photography vendor where the pricing was so readily available. It's almost impossible to quantify the ways that Lan and Mike contributed to our day, and I am still in shock at how much I paid for how much we got. Yellow Paddle let us peruse all of their available photographers for our wedding date, and aside from how much we loved Lan's portfolio, there was also so much in his biography that resonated with us as a couple. From the moment we met Lan at our (incredibly well-priced) engagement session, we knew we had hit the nail on the head. Talking to him was easy, we shared tons of common interests, and despite both feeling very awkward in front of a camera, Lan captured our love and excitement with such intimacy and authenticity. Because of the connection we built at our engagement session, welcoming Lan into our getting-ready spaces was much more like greeting an old friend than meeting a wedding vendor. We didn't get to choose our second shooter with the 1.5 photographer package, but Mike was also an invaluable part of our day. My husband mentions frequently that Mike helped put him at ease just before our first look photos when he was feeling his most nervous. Lan and Mike worked well with each other, too; there wasn't any tension or stepping on each other's toes. When we got our gallery back (far sooner than the expected delivery date), we were in absolute awe. Lan and Mike delivered far above and beyond what we had ever dreamed of receiving when we started planning our wedding, and frankly above and beyond what we even expected based on Yellow Paddle's pricing/package details. From the staged family photos and accessory shots to the candids of guests and private moments between my husband and me, Lan and Mike truly captured the warmth, intimacy, love, and connection we felt throughout our special day. I am so excited to get to enjoy our photos for years and years to come. I cannot possibly recommend Yellow Paddle, and SPECIFICALLY Lan Vo, strongly enough for your wedding day.

Oh hey! I’m Katie, down-to-earth and down to explore! I'm a Colorado wedding & elopement photographer, adventurer, and cat mom. Let me promise you two things. First: we are going to have a blast! Plenty of people think they’re really awkward, especially for photos. Never fear! I use super fun prompts, simple poses, dumb jokes, and a journalistic approach to capture candid moments and your authentic selves. The second promise that I will do whatever I can to make your life simpler during this process. Whether that is timeline planning, or helping plan your dream elopement. I am always going to be in your corner!

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!!!

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 with Elevate was an absolute blast to work with for our engagement and wedding photos. Our initial meeting was so warm and inviting at the Elevate studio. She was so great with us getting to open up and be ourselves in front of the camera. She was sure to make every little detail seem big and important. We had a great call a couple weeks before the wedding day to nail down everything we wanted to capture. And once we got to the big day, she went above and beyond for us continuously. I cannot recommend Elevate and Bethany enough!

Lindsey was absolutely incredible, she captured our wedding and was able to cultivate the exact vibe I wanted for our photos. It was a super easy process to get started with her and she was so communicative along the way leading up to our big day. She was also just lovely to work with, made us laugh so many times, and was so incredibly accommodating of our chaos. The photo previews we got had us both crying because they were so beautiful. We HIGHLY recommend her and cannot wait to work with her again. Thank you Lindsey!!!!

Working with Courtney was a dream! She was incredible to work with from the start with our engagement session all the way through to the wedding day and beyond. My husband and I are a little more on the shy/awkward side - especially when it comes to taking photos, but Courtney made us feel so comfortable and knew exactly what to have us to do to get some beautiful and fun shots :) Courtney was so fun and helpful throughout our special day and the questionnaires she sent us to fill out were so helpful for us to give her any heads up and set our day up for success. Our wedding day and timeline went off without a hitch and everyone has had wonderful things to say about our photo/video team and the sneak peek photos! Oh, she was also so patient with our chaotic pups who wanted to join in on some photo fun! We have zero regrets choosing Wild Opal and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!! :)

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.

Katie was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the start, Katie's communication was consistent, compassionate, and timely. Her high-quality, beautiful work truly captured the special moments of our micro wedding in the mountains. Katie's encouragement and photography skills were invaluable, and when our dog accidentally ruined the photo book, she happily recreated it for us. We would highly recommend Katie Blondin Photography to any couple getting married in the Denver area!

Thanks for checking out Gesina Marie Photography. I earned my Bachelors in Art History and Photography from the University of Colorado. I would describe my style of photographing as candid, with editorial sprinkled in. Smiles should be natural, not forced, and weddings should be about getting marries, not a photoshoot. My photos capture the natural emotions and fleeting in-between moments of every wedding. From small glances at each other to the chocolate covered ring bearer, I want my photos to tell a story, your story.

Gesina and Boris were so amazing to work with! We booked Gesina Marie Photography over a year before our wedding to make sure that we could have her as our photographer. She was so flexible in rescheduling our engagement shoot that got rained out AND in working with us when COVID forced us to change our original wedding plans to a smaller ceremony. When we saw our photographs from our wedding day, we were BLOWN AWAY. They managed to capture every moment of the day. Her and Boris were so friendly and made everyone feel so comfortable. They were great at giving direction for poses, and also at capturing the candid shots as well. I am not joking when I say everyone at our wedding ceremony complimented the two of them and are OBSESSED with how our photos turned out. Hire her - you will be in great hands for whatever event you are needing photographed! We will definitely be using Gesina Marie in the future! :)

You can usually find me holding a camera and a coffee! I was born and raised partially in Texas and partially in Colorado. Growing up, I used art as a way to get lost in something nurturing, healthy, and safe. I am a Libra and Libras love pretty things, so we are especially interested in making things look beautiful and pleasing to the eye! I worked in camera stores all through high school and college as a Lab Technician. I moved to Denver at age 20 to pursue my BFA in Film/Video/Television graduating in 2008. I waited to find and marry the man of my dreams that shares a love of art with me. He assists me at most wedding gigs we accept!

Brittanie did our engagement photos and wedding photos and did an amazing job! I was very happy with the photos she was able to capture in a natural environment. I always feel uncomfortable when someone takes photos of me, and she made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She is energetic, professional, fun to work with, and able to direct well to get good photos. I can't recommend her enough!

We had a great photography session with Carmen, she was at the time and place already and had scouted the area for great spots which was really appreciated because I hadn’t been to the park. She made us feel good about ourselves and comfortable with taking pictures even though it was our first meet.

My goal as a wedding photographer is to give you an amazing experience, one as unique and authentic as your love!

We found Ashlyn in this group in the early planning stages while looking for an engagement photographer. When she posted she wanted to shoot at a location where my husband and I happened to have met, we went for it. After we got the incredible photos back, I knew I wanted her to do our wedding. Ashlyn felt like my bestie/hype woman/go to human. If I was stressed or overwhelmed, Ashlyn and her husband, Brandon, helped bring me back to center. She should honestly be part planner too with the way she kept me on task and on time, got on her hands and knees and bustled my dress in 2 minutes without hesitation, and seemingly managed to be in 4729 places at once, always capturing the best shots of the moment. She moved family and friends quickly through the group/family shots without sacrificing quality, hiked around in the forest with us for amazing shots, and dealt with our 140 lb Great Dane with ease. Ashlyn and Brandon are true professionals, with the care and attention they put into their work clearly shining through in the incredible photos. I hope to have them photograph my family and I through all walks of life in the future and can’t recommend enough!

Hi I'm David! Professional Wedding Photographer, snowboard-bum at heart, 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. 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 someone and 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.

My name is Sophia, and I am a dedicated wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the most cherished moments of your special day. My journey into photography began out of a love for storytelling through images. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a profession as I found joy in documenting the love and connection between couples on their wedding day. Each wedding is a new story, a new adventure, and I am honored to be a part of such significant moments in people’s lives.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer! From start to finish, Sophia was full of energy and brought such a positive, upbeat vibe to our day. She made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, capturing both the big moments and the little ones in between. Her enthusiasm was contagious, making every session fun and effortless.

I married my middle school sweetheart - he is my best friend in the whole world. We have three fur babies who I am severely obsessed + attached to. Oliver, Bentley, + Miley. Meow, meow, woof. ODESZA completely rules our life, so much so that we got matching tattoos to commemorate our love for them + their music. I do have a secret identity - total rave babe. Other than photography, going to festivals + concerts at Red Rocks is my favorite hobby, ever. I'm an alumni of The University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Your go-to person for any + all Office quotes. Shark week is my favorite week of all the weeks. I drink way too much Prosecco.

I've been an event coordinator for over 7 years, and have worked with many photographers at all types of events, from amateur photographers at community events, to celebrity wedding photographers whose work shows up in magazines, so I can say with confidence that Dani is a very professional, excellent photographer. As an event coordinator, part of my job is to ensure that all the vendors know where to be and when - which includes reminding the photographers when important events are about to take place. Dani was so on top of things that I never had to worry that she was missing anything, she captured every single portion of the wedding, and was always right where she needed to be. She managed the photography timeline seamlessly, and kept the entire (very large) wedding party on track for all the requisite group photos. She was great with communication during the planning phases of the wedding, and very reliable when it came to coordinating schedules. She was on time on the wedding day, and did a great job capturing every single important moment of the wedding day. Dani was hired by the wedding couple prior to my joining the planning team, and I would 100% recommend her to others and use her in future weddings.

We don't even know where to start with this amazing photographer. The first time we met Paige was for our engagement photos at the Broadmoor. It was evident that Paige had a deep care and love not only for photography, but for her clients as well. Fast forward 2 years to our wedding! We didn't even hesitate to have Paige as our photographer! She was very detailed with the photos that we wanted, told us how much time it would take, and made sure to keep us on track for our special day! Paige is friendly, charismatic, and down to earth. She is one hell of a photographer and a human! Don't look any further for any of your photography needs, because there is no one better! We will forever use Paige for all of our future photography needs!

Jamee Photography

My love for God’s creation, as well as the unexpected, drives the organic quality of my work. I enjoy shooting the most natural, candid moments that unfold at a wedding to genuinely document the essence of the occasion and the backdrop. Whether nature brings rain or shine, order or chaos—it’s your story, and I’d be honored to capture it. I live in the Denver area and work throughout the state of Colorado, primarily at mountain destinations like Vail, Beaver Creek, Aspen, Keystone, Telluride, and beyond. I shoot digital exclusively with the Nikon Z6ii using fixed lenses. ​

I recently married in August 2024 and the best decision I made was hiring Jamee Pierzchala to photograph my big day. I can truly say that Jamee is the most talented photographer. Her work is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. I’m usually very self conscious about how I look in photographs. Somehow she made me feel so comfortable and took the most stunning photos. I’ve never felt more beautiful. I’m telling you my house is about to be a museum of her work. I cannot thank her enough for capturing every special moment of the day. I will cherish her work for the rest of my life.

Hello! I am Iveth, a wedding photographer based in Colorado. I am the lead photographer, my husband is the second shooter and videographer. I officially launched my business in 2021 but have always had a camera on hand since I was 7. Initially I captured the beauty of nature and landscapes but shifted my focus and started capturing the love and connection between people against Colorado's Stunning backdrops in 2020 and haven't looked back. We will become besties if you are drawn to bright and airy photographs, love wine, traveling, spending your free time hiking and exploring the outdoors.

I loved working with them, they did great for my engagement and wedding photos. Would totally recommend!

Hi, my name is Kimberly and I’m a witness and documenter of truth. I've specialized in Wedding & Portrait Photography for the last 10 years and am grateful to call in my full time career. I’ve been blessed with photographing over 180 weddings and it is truly the biggest honor to witness a wedding day and freeze it in time. In my free time my favorite thing to do is spend quality time with family, friends, and cats. I love adventuring with my husband and feel most at home being outdoors exploring new places.

I don’t think works can describe how instrumental Kimberly was to making our wedding planning and wedding day memorable. From our first phone call we instantly knew we found the right person. Our engagement pictures turned out better than we imagined and my boudoir shoot was the most empowering experience ever!! We both never take pictures so had anticipated this process to be uncomfortable, but had the complete opposite experience. She is now stuck with us for every major milestone! Not only did we have fun but truly felt that our personalities were captured and the joy she captured was palpable. This was the best investment we made to fully capture such a memorable!! Our guests also had nothing but positive things to say and echoed our sentiments on how enjoyable she made our day!

Sheila developed a love of photography at a very young age, when she was given her first camera. She initially began her journey photographing nature. Her first wedding was a freelance project nearly 30 years ago but it was not until she had children of her own that she created a client base from “the neighborhood” not knowing how her fun hobby would eventually turn into an actual business. She has photographed everything from small intimate ceremonies to large events and loves getting to know each couple and what makes their day special!

I'm a destination wedding photographer with over a decade of experience capturing amazing love stories around the world. This is my life's work and I am passionate about what I do. My goal as a photographer is to not only authentically capture your story in a natural way but to also create fine art; that you will cherish and treasure for years to come.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole Henshaw! Our wedding at the top of Four Points Resort in Steamboat Springs, Colorado was nothing short of magical, and Nicole played a huge part in making it so. From the moment she arrived, she was attentive, professional, and incredibly communicative with both the bridal party and our families. She helped us capture moments we would have never thought to ask for, and her attention to detail was impeccable. Nicole made sure that every key moment was covered from start to finish- ceremony, reception, and the after-party that lasted well into the evening. Her ability to read the room and know exactly what to capture at each moment was astonishing- especially because we didn’t know every detail of what to ask for. Her intuitiveness, creativity, and beautiful eye for photography are so evident in every shot we received back. We are beyond grateful to have had her as our photographer and would recommend her in a heartbeat! Thank you, Nicole, for helping us relive the magic of our special day through your incredible work!

I'm head over heels for my fireman, patient mama of two (9 and 4), oldest of 5, and a lover of dark beer and other people's love stories. I encourage my couples to push for what they want on their wedding day- whether that's a white dress on a golf course or something free from tradition. My own wedding was at our first date spot (a coffee/whiskey/donut shop), Carbon Coffee, Downtown Denver. It was incredibly meaningful and one of the best days of my life. I'd like to ensure my clients the same wonderful memories. *Discounts to active military and first responders!

We are so thankful to know Katie and have had the privilege of having her shoot our engagement session and wedding! We were supposed to get married in Mexico in 2020 and we were planning on flying her down for the wedding. When the wedding was cancelled due to COVID, she was so wonderful--she made sure that we knew that she was going to work with us for whenever we were able to reschedule. My husband is not one to feel comfortable behind the camera. However, Katie immediately made us both feel comfortable and gave us prompts that made the entire experience so much fun! We've definitely found our photographer life! As our family grows, I know she will be the one to capture every moment. Her photos speak for themselves--they are truly pieces of art! We would highly recommend her to anyone!

I have been doing wedding photography since 2016. I offer full day wedding coverage as well as coverage for elopements, civil ceremonies and micro-weddings.

We were so happy with Brooke for both our engagement and wedding photos. She is very responsive through planning and easy to work with. She is also very thoughtful and provides great recommendations. We chose her initially because we liked her use of natural light and the warmth of her photos, and in addition to being thrilled with how the pictures turned out, our friends and family raved about them. Brooke’s turnaround time on the pictures was also much faster than we anticipated. We highly recommend her - you can’t go wrong with Brooke!

Shelly is a luxury award-winning wedding photographer who has photographed events all over the country and internationally. She focuses on the details, emotions, and the environment on the wedding day. Shelly's theory is; "the flowers will wilt, the invitations will be thrown away, and the cake will be eaten.....but the photographs will be how you remember and are brought back to that day. Photographs evoke an emotion in your when you look back on them. When you see a photo of your maid of honor laughing during the speech, or your parents tearing up during the vows....you will remember exactly how you felt that day."

We couldn't be happier with our wedding photography experience with Shelly! From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. We got to do engagement pictures with her which allowed us to get to know one and other and her style. Her creative direction really helped us make the most of our time, and we adored the photos from our session! Her warm and calming energy truly enhanced both our engagement session and our special day, allowing us to focus on the love and joy we felt. Shelly captured every moment beautifully, showcasing not just our love, but also the happiness of our family and friends. The photos are stunning and perfectly reflect the spirit of the day. Working with her was an absolute joy, and we can't wait to recommend her to everyone we know. We're already looking forward to our next occasion that requires her incredible talent! Thank you, Shelly, for giving us memories we'll cherish forever.
