Not only were we thrilled with the quality, number, and range of shots that she took, but we also so appreciated her calm and positive energy throughout the day. Her communication leading up to the wedding was also excellent; Candi is a true professional! I don't know what we would have done without her as there is no way we could have afforded what other photographers charge for weddings. She was a godsend! We would absolutely recommend her for any special event or portrait photography.

My goal is to capture the beauty within each and every one of us. Whether that beauty comes from: a portrait session, candid shots of emotion at an event, or from capturing the game winning point; I have got it covered! For portrait sessions I specialize in creating a fun and comfortable environment for my clients. Emphasis on fun because that is when we truly shine and capture the best photos. In event photography I specialize in capturing the entirety of the event and delivering a large number of photos to represent that event. From emotional speeches to guest interactions, you can feel assured that every aspect of your event will be photographed. There is a certain awe to be captured in sports photography and that is what I aim to capture. Whether that is from family cheering on an athlete, crossing the finish line at a triathlon, or the focus of a pitcher at a baseball game; like my event photography I capture all aspects of a sporting event.

We truly could not have asked for anyone better to photograph our elopement than Chad and Vanessa…read moreat The Outlovers. From our very first interaction, they made us feel supported, understood, and genuinely excited about the day we were creating. Our ceremony was deeply personal and a little unconventional. We wanted something with pagan elements, including casting a circle and a handfasting ritual, and Vanessa could not have been more open, accepting, and enthusiastic about helping us bring it to life. We came to her with the bones of what we wanted, and she helped us polish it into a ceremony that felt meaningful, intentional, and completely true to us. There was never a moment where we felt judged or like we needed to make our wedding fit into someone else's idea of what a ceremony should look like. On the day itself, Chad and Vanessa made us feel so incredibly special. They found breathtaking, quiet locations for our first look and ceremony and somehow made the entire experience feel intimate, relaxed, and full of joy. Their playful banter over who got the better photo made us laugh, and it was obvious how much they genuinely care about both their work and the couples they photograph. Their experience also became invaluable whenever a little hiccup arose. No matter what came up, Chad and Vanessa seemed to immediately have a solution. They have clearly done this enough times to know how to adapt without ever making you feel like something is going wrong. Instead, you just feel taken care of. Our elopement turned out to be everything we hoped it would be: intimate, beautiful, meaningful, a little wild, and completely ours! And now we have absolutely stunning photographs that allow us to step right back into those moments. If you are considering eloping, especially if you want something personal, unconventional, adventurous, or simply different from a traditional wedding, I cannot recommend The Outlovers enough. Chad and Vanessa don't just photograph your elopement. They help you create an experience you will want to remember for the rest of your life. We will forever be grateful that they were part of ours.

My husband and I hiked up to almost 14,000 feet in the magical San Juan's at 3am under the stars and into a massive alpine meadow for our first look. Vanessa and Chad knew how special this area was to me and my husband and lugged up camera equipment to ice and island lake where we shared our vows. Our wedding was more than the most beautiful photos....which let me just say....they are breathtaking... but it was an intimate and spectacular day that exceeded my dreams. The care these people put into your special day is unmatched to anyone else. Chad and Vanessa even did a second location outside of Ouray. If you are on the fence, jump over it. If you're second guessing. Stop. You have found the two people who will go above and beyond, literally, and provide you the absolute best wedding adventure experience you could ever hope for. I cannot recommend them more. I cannot thank them enough. Book with The Outlovers!!!

My husband and I were in Ouray for our 15th wedding anniversary and decided to get photos done, since we hadn't had any photos alone together since our wedding.

I communicated with Jeff by email prior to coming to town and we narrowed down locations, attire, etc. The entire package was very affordable, nothing like we'd pay for similar photos in California. We're looking forward to coming back to Ouray this summer, this time with our kids in tow, and doing some family photos as well.
