A beautiful Boulder, CO elopement

Alton was our photographer when my husband and I eloped in August 2019 in Boulder, CO. Alton met us out on a trail where we had planned to say our vows and sign our marriage certificate. It was perfectly private and Alton gave us all the space we wanted, taking beautiful photos from a distance and later close up after we had our moments together. He had some really fun ideas for us and was also really flexible and open to changing things up.

A few extra memorable moments included a spontaneous pizza shop excursion when Alton took candid photos of us ordering and eating our slices - some of my favorites from the whole day! And later he took extremely thoughtful and beautiful sunset photos of us with our dog.

The day was stunningly beautiful, serene, and filled with joy. I'm so grateful that Alton was there to capture every moment for us.

Boulder Wedding

Alton was such a huge help in helping us plan and coordinate our Colorado wedding! He went above and beyond to make sure we had everything sorted out and arranged well beforehand as we were coming from out-of-state. He was prompt and professional throughout the entire process and we loved our final images!
