Mikayla rocks!

Mikayla was so wonderful from the moment we outreached her. She was super responsive, helped with figuring out timing of shots, and her photos came out phenomenally. I truly cannot get over how amazing the photos are and I have not stopped looking at them nonstop since Monday. The turnaround for the photos was super quick and even the sneak peak was lightning fast. All around amazing experience!

She’s the GOAT!

Mikayla is a talented photographer with a style that doesn’t sacrifice color and vibrancy. She is so friendly and direct with communication, and we felt that our vision was considered and captured perfectly! On our wedding day she was attentive and encouraging. Her photos of our wedding are so dreamy and are an absolute delight to share. We will cherish these photos for generations. Mikayla’s work is awesome and we can’t recommend her services enough. If only we didn’t live states away so she could capture more of our life events!

Mikayla truly made our day so smoothly and beautifully. Highly recommend her!

Mikayla is a true gem! We are so lucky to have found her. She made our day so special. We told her the location and she did the rest!! She is truly such a sweet human and cares about her couples. It shows in all of the photos she posts, and receiving back our albums we are just so in love. She just blew us away with our engagement session and we got the sneaks for the wedding and I already cannot wait to see the rest! She is so good at editing and picking the spots for all of the photos. I told her I wanted to spread my grandparents ashes and the day got away from me. She is the one who remembered because she truly just cares about her clients. She is a true artist and the easiest yes of this entire wedding planning process!! :)

Mikayla is THE BEST there is!

If you’re thinking of hiring Mikayla for your wedding/elopement photography, please just do it!

Working with Mikayla was absolutely wonderful and stress-free from beginning to end. While she mainly works in Colorado, I live in Florida and fell completely in love with her style and attention to detail. When I reached out to her about traveling to do our wedding photography, she was completely on board and so supportive. Her timely responses to all of my questions were so helpful and she made the entire process a breeze.

She not only did our wedding photos, but also our engagement shoot and her direction and guidance made each experience so much fun! Mikayla is so down to earth, kind, and professional. The day of the wedding, she and the second photographer showed up right on time and made sure everything went smoothly. They were dedicated to getting all the detail shots I requested and had great ideas for poses and backgrounds. Nothing felt forced or obtrusive. She worked hard to capture the special moments and overall atmosphere of the event. Within 2 weeks, she sent me a sneak peek of the gallery and always texted or emailed with updates on the timeline for the completed photos (which I sincerely appreciated since waiting is the hardest part!)

Her passion for what she does shines through in her work, and her overwhelming talent far exceeds anything else you could find for your special occasion. If I could talk to anyone considering hiring Mikayla face-to-face, I would jump up and down and tell them that they would be crazy to pass up the opportunity to work with her. Your beautiful photos will be passed down for generations to come, and you want someone as gifted as Mikayla taking them. She perfectly captured the love and joy of our wedding, and I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Cannot Recommend Mikayla More!

We absolutely LOVE Mikayla! We met back in 2019 for our engagement pictures, since then she has only made us fall in love with her and her work even more. Our original date was in 2020 and she worked so well with us on rescheduling to 2021. During the engagement shoot she helped us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Mikayla has an ease to her that just automatically calms people around her, she really has a gift. We loved our engagement photos (bring your dog because DUH) and are so excited for the wedding photos. During the big day she was so accommodating with our schedule and our families and bridal party absolutely loved her, we still get comments today from people in attendance. We received our photos exactly a month later, which was so impressive considering the amount of weddings Mikayla and her team have on their plate this year. Looking through the photos made us feel like we were back on our big day and we are so excited to have these photos as memories forever. Thank you so much Mikayla!!

Engagement Pictures

My fiancé and I got our engagement pictures done by Mikayla and we are so happy with them! Mikayla was amazing to work with. This was our first experience doing a photo shoot and we had no idea what to expect. Mikayla walked us through everything and made us feel super comfortable. Our pictures turned out very authentic and really captured “us.” Our friends and family were so impressed! Thank you so much, Mikayla!

Mikayla is amazing

Where to begin? For starters, I am not one to write reviews however after the most amazing experience that my wife and I had with Mikayla I felt it was only right to share her greatness with whomever may read this and possibly be on the fence about who your photographer should be. Here's
a quick hint if you don't want to keep reading (it is Mikayla, no doubt about it). My wife found Mikayla and her breathtaking work while looking for an elopement photographer in Colorado on Instagram. Coming to Colorado from Florida naturally we reached out to numerous elopement photographers. From the jump it was evident that Mikayla was not only passionate about finding us a perfect location but I can't speak enough about her professionalism and constant communication throughout the whole process. My wife was very particular about what she wanted and Mikayla was able to scout and send her a number of gorgeous views to pick from. When our big day arrived, due to the fires we were not able to get to our first location. Without hesitation, Mikayla was able to pivot and help us choose another location. The second choice however was extremely windy on our big day and Mikayla suggested it would be best to go to the third location. This location ended up being the absolute most beautiful thing I have ever seen in nature. Mikayla made us feel comfortable the entire time she was taking pictures. Our gallery came out better than I could have ever imagined and we feel so lucky that we had Mikayla there to capture this special moment. To whoever may be reading this, I can assure you without hesitation that Mikayla is the best to ever do it. Let her make your forever moment perfect. I promise you, besides tying the knot, it'll be the best decision you make.

Elopement Session

We all see the beautiful models in all of the magazines/ movies growing up and dream of a special day-and Mikayla will literally ensure that! She is extremely talented and I’m so so thankful I booked with her! Like many other brides this year a lot of my plans changed. My wedding was canceled actually because of a deployment, and with Covid I had not been able to see my now Husband because of travel restrictions. Mikayla was so responsive and quick to answer my many emails trying to lock down a date because it kept changing, my Husband and I are both in the military. She was even willing to rebook in case we couldn’t swing it, when we were last minute she moved mountains to meet up with us and she has the most beautiful recommendations for locations! I’m not picky so I told her I’m down for anything and we meet up July 4th weekend in the beautiful mountains of Colorado! She was so incredibly sweet it felt like we had been friends for years. My Husband is camera shy but he had a blast and Mikayla helped both of us enjoy the session with plenty of laughs! My photos are incredible and something that you would see in a magazine/Pinterest/Instagram page.I did my own make up, got a dress off Etsy, Mike’s suit is from Express, she helped cut my spandex, and helped cover up in the photos my heel that broke but damn do all of my pictures look perfect! She’s that amazing! I can’t recommend her enough and will be rebooking in the future for more sessions because I love her work!

Beautiful Engagement Photos!

Mikayla did an amazing job with our engagement photo session! She provided tons of great options for our location, picked the perfect time to get lots of golden hour shots, and made us both feel at completely at ease even though we had never taken professional photos before. Would highly recommend Mikayla for anyone looking to capture special moments in a beautiful setting

Incredible Engagement Shots, Lots of Fun!

We absolutely loved working with Mikayla! She’s super knowledgeable about great places to shoot in Colorado, and she made us feel totally at ease. She had great ideas about what kinds of poses would look best, and none of them felt forced or strange. There was a lot of laughter. Not only did we end up with a variety of truly gorgeous photos (and family keepsakes) but we had a blast together! We feel so lucky to have worked with her.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
