Kate Merrill Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Golden, CO

I’m Kate; a dog obsessed, coffee shop lurking, total weirdo of a Denver wedding photographer. I’m blessed with a very dry sense of humor (I’m British, I can't help it) and love using it to diffuse awkwardness in front of the camera. As one of my couples wonderfully phrased it, I’m “artsy without being inaccessible.” You know when things look good, and I do too. I’m here for the weirdos, wanderers, and folx who make the world a more interesting place. I AM INCLUSIVE OF ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE AND ALL TYPES OF LOVE. When you reach out to me, you will be met with nothing other than encouragement, support, and excitement to celebrate YOU.

Can't say enough good things about Kate! Kate's photos looked fun and candid, but still beautiful, and the prices were quite reasonable (we researched dozens of photographers). When we messaged her, she was so responsive and fun we knew we had to have her no matter what. She was very thorough, making sure we got the pictures WE wanted, and not what our parents or other guests might be thinking. Everything was laid out way ahead of time so we all knew what to expect. I really appreciated the planning beforehand, because while it can be a lot, it made the actual wedding day/week SO much smoother. Pictures took about 6 weeks, which was great turn around for *over 600 photos*. We absolutely love them! Some of the photos are gorgeous posed shots of my husband and I that I'm absolutely getting framed, but some of the best are these candid moments from after the wedding and reception. She got us signing our marriage license, hugging and crying with our guests, and doing finger guns with my sister at the reception. She didn't miss a thing and it's the best recreation of the day we could've possibly asked for. All our guests also remarked on how cool she was - some of them even thought she was just a friend of ours they'd never met cause she fit in so well! GET KATE

Jennifer Glenn Photography 

5.0

Golden, CO
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,400

What started as a passion project in Texas back in 2020 has led me to Golden, Colorado, where I continue to tell stories through my camera. I focus on blending timeless portraits with a documentary approach, capturing both beautifully posed moments and the raw, in-between emotions that make your story truly yours. My goal is to create images that reflect your authentic self, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Jenny was recommended to us by a friend and wow we could not be happier!! She is warm, kind, and made us feel so comfortable. The engagement shoot being included in the wedding package was so helpful because not only do we have beautiful engagement photos to look back on, we also got to know Jenny and she got to know us before the wedding! The day of our wedding she was punctual, calm, and she kept things moving perfectly so we got all the shots we wanted. And of course the best part is that her photos are STUNNING!! Everyone we show them to has been blown away by how gorgeous they are. Highly recommend Jenny for a fairly priced, fantastic photographer!

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
Makaila R. was fantastic! Wedding photos were very important to us, but we didn’t have a super high budget so I feel so thankful that we were able to utilize a service like yellow paddle. Unlike other similar services, you are actually able to pick your photographer, which is huge! Everything went as planned. Our photographer was prompt with our initial video meeting and right on time for the day of our wedding. She made us feel super comfortable and we are very happy with our wedding photos! We already received our wedding photos within just a few weeks and the site yellow paddle uses to be able to share photos with everyone is great. My only suggestion would be to be able to hide photos that you don’t want to be viewable to everyone when sharing the link…but they’d have to use a different photo sharing service. I would recommend this company 100%.

Angela did an amazing job capturing our wedding. From getting ready to the ceremony and reception, she captured all the details that I would have missed otherwise. She was super nice and easygoing from our initial meetup to the final photos. she was not invasive so we barely noticed her as she took amazing shots! She was a calm presence and relief of stress throughout the day. Her turnaround time was prompt and she captured so many emotions. The lighting was soft and beautiful. She even got my grandmas photo in the background as I was getting ready which brought me to tears. I feel she captured the personality of my husband and I perfectly. There were so many candid photos and little moments that I am thrilled to cherish forever. I would absolutely recommend her to capture your special day.

I travel to ALL 50 states as well as internationally!

From the initial appointment, Lindsay was so warm and friendly - she made the entire process so unbelievably smooth. I never once had to worry or ask for communication - because she was always on top of everything before I had to ask. She was a great resource for us. When it came to the engagement session, ceremony, and reception, Lindsay made us feel so comfortable (we are notoriously awkward in front of a camera & she really made us feel 100% comfortable, which made every event more fun because she could capture our most authentic selves. Any random idea I saw I would ask her about and she was so receptive to it all & catered the entire experience to us (she also gave incredible ideas that fit with our personal style which were some of my favorite shots). Overall - we LOVED working with her & I would not have changed a single thing about her or the process, she did a fabulous job capturing our special days & she acclimated exceptionally to the different styles of each event.

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!! :)

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.

Josh and I got engaged on 2/20/25 and Josh had hired Bri to photograph our engagement! She hid, I had no idea till after I was engaged. She did a wonderful job catching such a raw and beautiful moment between us!! Her and Josh even had to make a last minute plan and change locations for the surprise engagement due to weather, and she was very flexible, and worked with Josh the night before, and the plan worked out amazing, I still had no clue!! Bri is an amazing choice for a photographer for any occasion! Thank you Bri!

David was an absolute dream! He made our elopement feel like an extended date rather than a series of choppy photo sessions. He encouraged us to incorporate personal touches in our elopement that we didn’t even think of, and he was flexible enough to let me add in a few surprises for my husband the day of! I can’t stop showing people my photos and my family can’t stop asking me for more! Every photo we got was beautiful and looked like us (natural editing and personality wise) and we couldn’t recommend David more!

Was initially a little intimidated about choosing a wedding photographer. I think wedding photography across the board is gorgeous, but I knew I wanted someone who understood my vision of vibrant color, playful portraits, and capturing the details my husband and I had so carefully picked. Came across Nicole on a Facebook ad-- not remotely expecting to find a vendor that way. I couldn't stop looking at the photos and reached out to her right away. We had so many great vendors at our November 2023 wedding, but Nicole was on the tippy top of that list in terms of communication, professionalism, time management, energy, and willingness to hear our input. It's been months, but I find myself getting sucked into new photos all the time-- there's that many great shots! One of my bridesmaids is also a wedding photographer, so I asked for her input in hiring Nicole and she was very impressed with her portfolio, her pricing, etc.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Hi, I'm Liv! I'm an Adventure Elopement + Destination Wedding photographer based in Evergreen, Colorado. From intimate National Park Elopements to dreamy storytelling weddings in small mountain towns, whether you're rock climbing, snowboarding, riding ATVs, soaring in a hot air balloon, or keeping it simple with a stunning mountain overlook, I'm here to capture it! I travel wherever your dream destination takes you, ensuring your elopement is as adventurous or intimate as you envision!

As a provider of entertainment for large events, you work with many different planners, photographers, bands, florists, etc. The quality of the event depends on the quality of the people you hire. Photographs are one thing, but what people don't see is how a photographer can set a tone or a level of comfort that carries through the event team and event. Working with Olivia on multiple jobs were some of my favorite experiences because not only were the photos exceptional, the way she guided and calmed the guests and team makes for an enjoyable experience all around. I would recommend Olivia for any event and have used Olivia as my personal photographer!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rose is an amazing photographer with a beautiful style. Her story telling is wonderful and allows you to share the whole day with all those not at your elopement and they don't miss a single thing. Highly recommend speaking with her at the very least to see if she's your person. You won't be disappointed.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting! My name is Brogan, the owner and operator behind the lens at Brogan Resch Photography. I am a destination wedding photographer that seeks to capture love stories of those who are madly in love! I am thrilled that you are here and I would be honored to capture your milestones!

Brogan is by far the most talented and professional photographer around!! She starts by helping you plan your day (timelines and details), and then works her magic on the day of your occasion. Her work is truly “picture perfect”. She’s so personable, that it’s hard to consider her as a vendor/service, she’s more like a friend. I highly recommend!!
