Western Colorado Weddings

From intimate elopements at Blue Lakes to grand celebrations beneath Telluride’s towering mountains, I capture the authentic moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours. The dramatic landscapes of our region become part of your celebration’s story, whether you’re exchanging vows in a historic ghost town, dancing under mountain stars, or celebrating in one of our charming local venues.

As a photographer who calls these mountains home, I know the hidden spots, the perfect timing for alpenglow portraits, and how to work with our region’s dynamic weather. From Montrose’s vibrant venues to Telluride’s epic vistas, I blend artistic vision with local expertise to create wedding photos that honor both the magnificent mountain scenery and the intimate moments of your day. Your wedding photographs should be as extraordinary as the location you’ve chosen to celebrate your love.

I love to create vibrant, authentic moments for your most memorable days.
