About

Adventurous, Honest, and Candid Photographs

Bio: Mike is a Photographer based out of Boulder, CO. Since first picking up a camera over ten years ago, he has built an extensive portfolio of adventure, wedding, and travel photography. As a visual storyteller, Mike works to combine light and emotion into impactful images for his commercial and wedding clients.

The Look: Adventurous, Honest, and Candid.

The Approach: I believe weddings should not be turned into photoshoots and should be the celebration they are! As such I focus on telling the story of the day and letting my clients put their effort into enjoying themselves and spending time with their guests. The resulting photos are intimate and honest. A bride and groom’s confidence is what brings out the most from a photo.

Mike Mills is Amazing

Mike was so easy to work with, and our pictures turned out gorgeous! His prices were reasonable, he met with us beforehand to discuss our expectations, communicated with us about specific shots we wanted to do, and was generally incredibly easy to work with.

Part of what drew us to him was the fact that so many wedding photographers really only do a couple types of shots, so all your photos end up looking the same. We wanted someone who could find interesting angles, and nail not only the "big stuff" you want to capture, but also little side moments that really remind you of how the ceremony and reception actually felt at the time. If you check out Mike's portfolio, you can see that that's his stock in trade. Both his wedding photos and outdoor/climbing work are incredible, and he has a knack for getting a shot at just the right moment.

He did a fantastic job and I'm so glad we chose him. Can't recommend him enough. A+++

Thank you!

We had such a great experience with wild iris. Mike drove all the way out to Salida for us which was a bit of a haul. Helping us plan and manage our family on wedding day was a HUGE help and most of all we just love our photos. Thank you so much!

Best in Boulder!

We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer for our wedding at Chautauqua this summer. From our first meeting to getting our photos everything was smooth and seamless. Thank you mike and wild iris for making our day so special and relaxed.

Boulder Colorado Spring Wedding

We we live in LA and planned our wedding from out of state. Mike was so amazing from the first call!! He helped us plan our Boulder wedding and made everything so much more manageable for us. I can't recommend him enough if you need a great photographer and basically your own local tour guide.

Best one in Boulder

Loved working with Mike!! Picking a photographer was so stressful we almost just had a family friend do it. Towards the end of our search we came across Mike. Instead of having our friend do it we made a new one. Couldn't be happier with our choice!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
