I'm a wedding photographer in Denver that captures fleeting moments to create personal stories of love and laughter. I go beyond the "I do" moments by photographing deeper emotional scenes that are very personal. Most of your wedding day will include candid photography coverage without any posing! Only a small portion of your wedding will be staged for family portraits and it'll be short and sweet.
Services
Documentary wedding photography is "observing scenes and anticipating moments vs. reacting to them." I'm actively observing and moving around to frame moments. I'm also constantly making adjustments on my camera as I move in and out of the light. All of the moments that are captured are used to crate your story.
Yes, you will receive an online gallery link to which you'll have 60 days to download the photos. Yes, anything 30 miles outside of Denver, I charge 40 cents per mile. If the travel is over 2 hours from Denver, then an additional fee will be added to cover hotel costs, around $150 depending on the area and availability.

Rudy did a fantastic job photographing and documenting our wedding day! We found Rudy 3 weeks before our wedding, our original photographer had double booked and all of the sudden we were scrambling. By some miracle Rudy had the date available, and jumped on board. He was a great communicator and responsive. Wish we would have found him in the very beginning of our planning journey. Our photos turned out absolutely beautiful, they felt like "us"! He captured a lot of wonderful candid moments with our friends and family and we appreciated his documentary style. He was also great to work with on

Rudy captured joyful, beautiful and lasting memories of my daughter's wedding day with his photographs. His photos go beyond just recording the events of the day. His images reveal genuine emotion...candid and unique shots of our family's once in a lifetime celebration. I am very pleased with his work. Also, Rudy is a super nice guy and was a joy to work with.

Wow! That is all I could say when i saw his finished product. Our wedding photos were not only beautiful but they also had emotion and captured a story. We chose Rudy because we saw something different in his work that we couldn’t find in most photographers. He really captures the true essence of a time and place and adds character to it. I was more then happy with our choice and would definitely hire him again. Rudy was pleasant to be around. Super nice guy. There were times during the wedding I did not see him but then I looked at the photos and thought, omg I didn’t know he got that. Would

We chose Rudy, because of his unique approach to wedding photography - he captures your entire day and crafts a unique story, that goes far beyond, the classic formal shots you're used to seeing at a wedding.
We were incredibly happy with our photos that captured all of the emotions across the entire day: nerves, tears, elation and lots and lots of dancing! Which were our absolute favourites.
Rudy was a delight to work with and everyone enjoyed having him there. He floated in and out of moments and quite honestly, it was such a suprise to get back these incredibly intimate and close up shots

Rudy was absolutely amazing! He is genuine and fun and takes stunning pictures. We got our wedding and engagement photos back very quickly, and they were all perfect. We have so many fun pictures of our guests playing games, getting ready in the morning, dancing, and of course some posed photos that also turned out amazing. Would recommend him to anyone!
