TRUE TO LIFE. INTENTIONAL. YOU.
COLORADO WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER
PHOTOGRAPHING COUPLES WHO LOVE THE MOUNTAINS+ THE STORIES OF THEIR DAYS
Wanting photos
THAT LOOK & feel LIKE YOU?
Because honestly, that’s what all of this is about anyways.
You pour your heart into a day that looks like you, feels like you, makes your heart happy, and have memories to look back on forever!
You deserve to get lost in the enjoyment of your day. Leave the photos to me.
“Mikayla was great at directing us, making it feel natural. Our friends and family keep telling us how incredible our photos are.”
“Hiring Mikayla was the first and best decision we made when planning our wedding.”
“Her photos captured the emotion of the day so well, as well as the venue, guests, details, and more.”
I deliver galleries that are…

MY SERVICES
I’m not here to give you unsolicited advice on how you *should* get married. I’m here to support your vision, help take some of the stress away, and give you kick-ass photos to remember forever.
ELOPEMENTS
Elopements are for couples that want something a little smaller in size, but not in importance!
Your smaller guest list allows for more flexibility with locations & activities. Want to off-road to an alpine lake and crack open some cold ones? Want to hike 8 miles into the backcountry & have your dog sign your marriage license? Something in between? I’m down to clown, let’s get to planning.
WEDDINGS
Couples choose weddings when they know they can’t imagine their day with all of their favorite peeps!
The chances that all of your favorite humans will be in the same place again are slim. So I’ll clock 8+ miles on my Apple Watch to make sure that all of the smiles, laughs, hugs, & tears are captured. & I’ll do it with a smile on my face.
SESSIONS
For those moments that deserve to be captured and those stories that deserve to be told!
Engagement, maternity, anniversary, just because of you & the pup(s). We can meet up somewhere beautiful and hang out for a couple of hours. These are low-threat & really fun. Cameras can be intimidating but I’ll guide ya every step of the way.
about your wedding and elopement photographer
I’m Mikayla
— A Colorado-based elopement and wedding photographer who loves being in the mountains and crying during other people’s vows. My photography is based on your connection first, and the mountains second. I’m equally inspired by both and they make my job a dream. I’d love nothing more than hanging out somewhere pretty and creating beautiful, timeless photos together.
I’m often found in Colorado Springs, Denver, Breckenridge, Buena Vista, Crested Butte, and Telluride. I’m always down for an adventure so reach out no matter the distance!
SO YOUR MEMORIES CAN LIVE FOREVER
If choosing your photographer in Colorado has been slightly intimidating so far…
GOOGLE HAS FINALLY LED YOU TO THE RIGHT CORNER OF THE INTERNET
Listen, I totally get it! I, too, have spent hours stressing over who was going to photograph my special day! I have photographed weddings and elopements for the past 6 years and still sit and think, “Wow, these are someone’s MEMORIES!
I’ve been doing this for years and understand how important these moments are.
You don’t get a redo of your day. This is it! How do you documents the details? How do you get to remember all of the laughs, tears, hugs, and the views? Is it even possible to look back at your gallery and gush for decades to come?!
I think it’s possible. Matter of fact, I know that I can make that happen for you.
“BUT WHY ARE YOU SPECIAL? HOW ARE YOU DIFFERENT FROM OTHER COLORADO ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHERS?”
With all of the photographers that you’ve researched so far, I’m sure we’re all starting to mesh together. & You’re left asking what makes me so special as a Colorado photographer.
I care–really. It sounds so cheesy, but I do, like a lot. I’m emotionally invested in all of my couples. In your planning, in your day, in your photos. I’m just a normal person who knows how to take beautiful photos and tell a story. For me, this never gets old. Yes, you’ll get an elopement photographer & a pretty resourceful lady (if I do say so myself), but you’ll also get a another friend at your wedding.
