I'm a wedding photographer based in Denver and love photographing weddings all over the beautiful state of Colorado as well as all over the world. So if you are getting married in the city of Denver, having a mountain wedding, or having a destination wedding, I'm your girl!

I take a photojournalistic approach to wedding photography, which means your wedding gallery will have a ton of candids and photos full of emotion of both big AND small moments.I believe that there is always something to photograph on a wedding day! Weddings are happy days and my editing style reflects that.
While we were looking for a photographer, Shea sent us past wedding galleries. Even looking at other couples' wedding photos, I was getting emotional. That's when I knew she would be our photographer! Shea and her husband (and second photographer), Jacob, were fun and genuine in their attitudes. We were all laughing and smiling the entire time.

Shea is simply amazing! I did a ton of research when looking for a photographer to capture my surprise proposal. Shea (and Jacob) did such an amazing job and went above and beyond to make it perfect. She was patient, knowledgeable and very responsive. When it came time to find a photographer for our eventual wedding, Shea was the obvious choice. If that wasn’t enough, the photographs were incredible. Pulling this off was not an easy task in the midst of a pandemic. Shea made everything seem easy and I would not think twice about hiring her again.

We cannot say enough good things about Shea & Jacob as they are an incredible husband and wife team that we felt honored to work with! While there are so many decisions in the wedding planning process, the best decision we made was to book them for our wedding day. You can tell this is their passion and they pour their hearts & souls into their work. It takes a master eye with the lens & creative inspiration to capture the most intimate moments like they do. We were blown away by our Rocky Mountain engagement photos they took but our wedding photos are NEXT LEVEL!!! We had a fall wedding with rich

Shea photographed our wedding in August 2020 and she was AMAZING! We are in love with our wedding photos and get so many compliments on them. My husband and I both hate attention so we were worried having photographers around on our wedding day would feel awkward and forced but we hardly noticed Shea and her husband Jacob, the second photographer (in a good way!). They are creative, professional, and were so much fun to have around on our special day. We highly recommend them!!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Shea and Jacob. We had them take our engagement photos before our wedding as a way to get some photos with our dogs and get comfortable with them before our wedding. I felt like they were our best friends and made the experience so amazing.
Wedding day! Shea and Jacob came in and handled all of our pictures and at times, I didn’t even know they were there! (in a good way) They just handled everything they needed to do and did not add any stress and got along with all the other vendors. So many guests commented on how sweet, nice, and amazing they were

So its weird to write a review before you even meet someone or get photos back but I have to share my experience thus far. Scoured the internet for photographers in Colorado to do our Estes Park wedding AND some engagement shots, we wanted the same look and feel for both. Due to COVID all of it had to be virtual. We "met" Shea over Zoom and right off the bat was impressed with her quick responses to nail down a time, and just her overall personable demeanor throughout the call. We interviewed a handful more to make sure, and she took the cake. Her prices were upfront and packages were flexible

Shea was the MVP of our wedding! From actually finding our ceremony and reception venues to the photos she took, she was incredible. She was low-key and organized on our wedding day, and perfectly captured the feel and experience of our wedding in her photos (which we are THRILLED by). Would highly recommend her for any celebration you might need photographed!

Shea was such a pleasure to work with. We are so happy with how our wedding photos turned out. She was willing to work with us and provided great suggestions on spots to check out in Telluride. So flexible and easy to work with, I can't recommend her enough!

Shea was absolutely amazing to work with!! My husband and I eloped in Colorado this summer, and shea made our experience truly the BEST ever. She researched and scouted out lots of locations for us to take pictures, and I was so thankful for that! Being from Minnesota I wasn’t sure the best places to go, or even where was possible to get to. That was so wonderful! And not only that, but she was such a pleasure to work with! My husband and I had such a blast taking pictures with her. It was a completely stress free experience, she made us so comfortable and relaxed, and everything flowed so nicely

Shea captured our wedding day at Boettcher Mansion and engagement photos in downtown Golden perfectly!! She was great to work with before, during and after our big day. She was easy to communicate with in the planning process. She listened and captured our special requests perfectly. We loved everything about working with Shea! There's not a single thing I would change about our experience. Thank you Shea!!!

Shea was so wonderful with communication prior to our wedding without being overbearing. Even though our wedding was at a campground out in the middle of nowhere, Shea was there exactly on time and was wonderful throughout the day! She got us our pictures back promptly, which as you know is so appreciated.
We loved her so much that we just met up with her 4 years later to do another photo session! It has been so fun to keep up this friendship through the years, and I know I'll always have my go-to photographer for years to come.
