Vail Wedding Photographer & Videographer

Your wedding in the mountains should feel like you: the 'moments between,' nerves, details, the laughs, the wind on the ridge and the dance floor at midnight. I tell visual wedding stories across the Vail Valley, Beaver Creek and the Colorado high country. Looking to get married somewhere else? I travel! 

- Wedding photography: full or partial day coverage, delivered in a private online gallery.

- Wedding videos: a cinematic highlight video and short clips sized for Instagram.

- Elopements and micro-weddings: summit vows, hike-in ceremonies and sunrise elopements... you dream it up - I'll be there. 

- Engagement sessions: available!

 

Mountain weddings are what I know

The adventure of love is what I'm in it for. The elements are a part of your day - we can capture it all! 

How it works

  1. Reach out: tell me your date, venue and what you're dreaming of.

  2. Plan together: we build your timeline around the best light and fill out a pre-wedding questionnaire.

  3. The day: I stay unobtrusive and catch the real moments, with a little direction where it helps.

  4. Delivery: a sneak peek within 24 hours, then your full gallery and video in about 2-4 months.

 

Wedding photo + video FAQ

Do you travel outside Vail? Yes. Regularly.

 

How far ahead should we book? Summer and fall Saturdays book up first, so 9 to 12 months ahead is ideal. Weekday and winter dates often have more flexibility. Always ask! 

 

Do you shoot elopements? Yes! Small, adventurous weddings are some of my favorites.

 

When do we get our photos? You'll get a sneak peek within 24 hours and the full gallery in about 2-4 months depending on the wedding package you go with. 

 

How much does wedding photography cost? Every wedding is different, so I build a custom quote. Most wedding packages start at 5k.
