COLORADO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Story-driven photography for those who feel most alive in nature

Capturing love stories anywhere and everywhere

If you love mountains, tall trees, glaciers, stars, sandy beaches - basically just being outside - then you've come to the right place.

I specialize in weddings, elopements, and portraits that highlight the connection between couples and the places they love. Whether it’s just the two of you and your dog, or a full-on celebration with 400 of your closest friends, I’m your guy.

Can you vibe with this?

Natural Photos Without the Awkwardness

Most couples tell me they're worried they'll feel awkward in front of the camera. I'll give you just enough direction to help you feel comfortable and look your best, while keeping the experience candid, relaxed, and true to who you are.

Moments never missed

You only get one chance to experience your wedding day. With full day coverage included in every package, you can stay present with your family and friends knowing every meaningful moment is being captured.

You're drawn to a photographer who feels like a guest - but acts like a pro.

You value imagery that's real, timeless, & true to life.

No heavy filters. Zero AI BS. Just honest images that feel like you, in your best light.

Hi, I'm Sean!

I’m Sean, a photographer based in Colorado specializing in wedding photography, engagement photography, senior portraits and family portraits. My primary service areas for wedding photos are in Fort Collins, Estes Park and Denver but I frequently travel all over the state and throughout the country.

 

With a passion for capturing love stories, I’ve been a full time wedding photographer since 2010, and was recently voted by a panel of judges with the Wedding Photojournalist Association as one of the top 5 wedding photographers in the world.

 

I take an editorial, photojournalist approach focusing on capturing real moments and emotions while putting an artistic edge on your images.

 

As your photographer for any Colorado wedding or other event, I pride myself with providing you the quality service you deserve in a fun and professional manner.

Fort Collins Photographer

In addition to capturing weddings all over the country, I’m also a photographer in Fort Collins that specializes in all types of portraiture.

 

While wedding photography may be where many relationships begin, your story doesn’t end there. Whether you’re celebrating an engagement, welcoming a new family member, updating family portraits, building a personal brand, celebrating a high school graduation, or marking another important milestone, having a photographer who already knows you helps create a more comfortable and authentic experience.

More than a photographer. A storyteller for life's biggest moments

Let’s talk about what you’re celebrating.
