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.

Based in both Colorado & New England! Hey friend, I'm Natalie! I’m here to document the best day of your life in a way authentic to you! I’m inspired by the beauty of nature and the best of humanity. My goal is to give you memories you will never forget. I’m a storyteller and documentary styled photographer first. That means I capture your day in a way that feels like a movie you can watch every time you look back at your photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie was absolutely instrumental in making our wedding day more special than we had ever imagined. We really prioritized finding vendors who had experience working with queer couples, people of color, and disabled people - whose portfolios aligned with our values and our wedding party beyond simply stating “all are welcome” on their websites - and Natalie delivered. I have never been comfortable or felt like *myself* in front of the camera because of my flat affect and rigidity (I’m neurodivergent), so I was particularly anxious about having “good” photos from our wedding day. But Natalie’s warm demeanor immediately put my mind at ease, and I was blown away by how our engagement photoshoot went. Having (obviously) never planned a wedding before, my wife and I were a bit overwhelmed by all the decisions and coordination that go into making 100-person party go off without a hitch, but Natalie helped us put together a custom timeline that somehow fit in plenty of photos with our large, loud, blended families, and even an extra photoshoot for my parents! She communicated with all our vendors in advance and kept the entire day running on time. She helped button our dresses and clasp our jewelry, helped us stay present and enjoy each moment while offering direction when warranted. And the photos… Wow. The level of detail and composition of each photo is remarkable and immediately transports us back to our wedding day. We look (and felt!) like we were living in a fairytale. Natalie captured our personalities and relationship so well, from the intimacy of our first look and “golden hour” to lots of laughter with our closest friends. It’s the best wedding I’ve ever been to - of course! - and we couldn’t have done it without Natalie.

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 were thrilled with Shelly Anderson Photography for capturing our wedding day memories! Shelly and her team were a dream to work with - prompt, easy, and detailed communication made planning a breeze. On the big day, Shelly focused on capturing genuine moments, from our emotional first look to little details that embodied the joy and love we felt.

I love telling wedding stories, first and foremost, through capturing moments. Your wedding is a one of a kind event from the location to your style and personalities, but it also includes a unique group of people that have come together to celebrate your union. On your wedding day I focus on capturing the love and laughter, the tears and joy, but also the energy of the party! When it's over I give you a gallery of images that will bring all those emotions back every time you pull them up on your computer, share them online, crack open your album, or walk past them on your wall.

When I think of Matt and MSW Photos, WOW comes to mind. They are incredibly creative and think outside of the norm. They take the time to get to know you and focus on delivering amazing photos you'll be thankful you have for years to come.

Texas raised & happily Denver living. My heart is kept full on a daily basis with the support of my husband, snuggles of our Vizsla (Levi) & kitten (Montana). I've worked as a professional photographer for over 7 years. I began my dream of becoming an entrepreneur over 5 years ago when I left my cushy desk job and started Catherine Lea Photography. Since then I've photographed over 125 weddings, and have loved every single one.

Catherine is an amazing photographer. You can tell she loves her job and really cares about her couples. Catherine makes sure they have a wonderful experience not only on wedding day, but throughout the planning process as well. As a fellow wedding vendor, it's so reassuring when you know you're working alongside someone who truly cares about her client, her job, and makes sure the wedding day flows smoothly. Definitely recommend hiring Catherine for your wedding, you won't regret it!

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.

Hi! I’m Bri! Cameras have always been a passion, but it wasn’t until I left my corporate job that I fully embraced photography as my calling. I started by capturing Jiu Jitsu, focusing on its raw intensity, but soon realized I love the mushy gushy moments—tearful vows, quiet glances, and the joy of saying “yes” to forever. Now, I specialize in weddings, elopements, engagements, and proposals, blending storytelling with emotion and movement. With a keen eye for detail, I create images that feel natural, artistic, and deeply personal—telling your story exactly as it is.

Katie is more than just an incredible photographer, friend throughout the entire process. Back in February, I was scrambling to plan a last minute proposal and had spent months looking for someone I could trust. Katie came through in every possible way. Not only did she help me pull off the proposal flawlessly, but she also helped plan the entire experience, from the perfect location to places we could go afterward to celebrate. What stood out the most was how comfortable she made both me and my fiancée feel, especially since I’m not usually very photogenic. She brought such a calm, warm presence to the shoot, and her flexibility and thoughtful suggestions made everything stress free. Katie wasn’t just our photographer, she became a special part of our story. We’re now planning our wedding and genuinely hope to have Katie there not just behind the camera, but as a guest and friend. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly goes above 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!! :)

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!

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.

For many years I was a four-star chef. I got into photography to have creative control over the pictures of my food. One day I was working for a caterer at a wedding, and the photographer asked if I could fill in for his assistant. I thought why not, and I haven’t looked back since that fateful day when I traded in my knife for a camera. While I was a chef, I felt personally responsible for my customers’ happiness. I feel the same way about photographing your wedding. I want to create a unique personal experience for every bride and groom. I like to foster a fun and relaxed atmosphere during the shoots.

Patrick was our lead photographer. He was able to work with our associate photographer and videographer smoothly. Our ceremony changed because of rain causing the space to change and be much smaller. I was worried about how this would impact the photos. I’m so happy with how the photos came out and was able to see how Patrick got creative and maneuvered around to still get great shots! We had originally chosen him for his unique style of taking photos with different focuses and the very creative pictures. He did not disappoint. My favorite photos of the day were these uniquely set up photos. We had a few hiccups along the day with our venue but the calming voice of Patrick helped me feel better about our day. Our day was cold and he encouraged our friends and family he’d get the right photos quickly so they could go inside and warm up. I would definitely recommend him for your engagement or wedding photos.

Photography is my passion and my business. I started on my photography journey in high school using a film camera which quickly grew into a love for the art of capturing important moments in life. My passion and skill in wedding photography has grown immensely in the last decade, and I have had the opportunity to shoot in locations like Maui, Charleston and Cape Fear.

Lauren and her team at LP Wedding Photography were an absolute dream to work with! From the moment we first spoke, Lauren was so fun and so easy to work with - she really listened to what I wanted and knew exactly how to bring my vision to life. Her work is absolutely amazing, capturing all the special moments of our wedding day with such creativity and care. Lauren also did an incredible job with my boudoir photo shoot, and all of her photos turned out beautifully. On the day of the wedding, Lauren made everything so easy, taking charge when I was busy and making sure we got all the shots we needed. My husband was a bit hesitant about the photography part, but once we got our photos back, he loved them just as much as I did!

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!

With a background in travel and documentary photography, previously working in international non profit storytelling, my style speaks to those looking for the organic story with the greatest value being in experiences over things.

Rose is the most incredible photographer I have ever worked with! She has such an eye for capturing the beautiful little details that mean so much on your wedding day. We got married in a standard ceremony with reception afterwards, which she shot just perfectly. She also did our engagement photo shoot which we loved! There were so many times looking through our wedding gallery where I was pleasantly surprised she had captured a specific moment during our wedding and reception, as I hadn't even noticed she was there taking a picture! She has such an eye for the little interactions between family members. She is also so skilled at incorporating movement into your photos so they aren't just standard posed pictures (which she can also do beautifully) but instead photos of my husband and I running through a field/walking around/him twirling me, etc. Truly cannot get over how beautiful our wedding photos are - all thanks to Rose! She is also a breath of fresh air to have nearby throughout the day - there was a lot of stress and activity going on and she was such a calming presence. 10/10 recommend Rose as your wedding or elopement photographer! Well worth the money to have these photos you will look at and remember the day for the rest of your life.

KATIE BAECHLER Colorado Wedding & Lifestyle Portraiture 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Arvada, CO

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!
