Just amazing

From our initial introductory phone call, I was beyond impressed with Bethany at Elevate. She was so prepared for our call and walked me through things even our wedding coordinator had not mentioned. After just that one phone call, I knew she was the photographer I wanted, and I could not be happier that we found her! Bethany was so laid back and fun at our engagement shoot, she even won over my husband who absolutely hates having his photo taken. She was super communicative, and always positive, reassuring and calm/cool/collected. She listened to all of our requests and was patient and flexible with everything leading up to and on the day of, despite some chaos with family and weather. Elevate's pricing is super competitive (honestly, I was expecting to pay more for everything we got). They also include a slideshow during the wedding reception, which I have to admit I was hesitant about and actually considered asking them not to do, but am so glad I didn't! Countless guests commented on how amazing the slideshow was and how they'd never been to a wedding that had that before -- people got teared up. And it was so fun to take a couple minutes to pause and relive some of the moments from earlier in the day. We got both our engagement and wedding photos back within a month, and they are just superb. I ordered some prints from our engagement shoot from them already, and the quality is great. There are so many incredible shots from our wedding, I don't know how I'm going to choose prints or what to include in an album! Bethany and Nate were just amazing, and I cannot say enough about how pleased we are with having found and hired Elevate.

Absolutely Amazing!

Wow, we cannot possibly express how much love and respect we have for this amazing team. We fell in love with Katie from the moment we met her. She is full of life, energy, and fun, it felt like we had always known her. She has a unique quality that makes everyone around her feel comfortable and happy. From the engagement shoot in the snowy mountains, to the wedding day at Crooked Willow, she was able to capture our love, our connection, and our joy in every photo. The day of the wedding, Katie, Bethany, and Emma were more than just our photographers, they were part of our family, They guided us through the day with ease and patience, and understanding of our expectations. We do not have words to describe how magical our wedding photos were, just stunning. My family and friends loved this team as well, they were amazing in every way. Thank you Katie from the bottom of our hearts for capturing this day so perfectly, you truly will be our friend for life.

Captured Our Day Perfectly!! Absolutely Amazing

Katie was absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process, and we are so thrilled with the pictures she took, both for our engagement shoot and our wedding. My husband and I aren’t used to taking professional photos, but Katie made us feel at ease with her casual, happy manner and jokes. We fell in love with Elevate when Katie told us that she focused on capturing all the moments from the wedding – not just the “stand there and smile” moments. Katie seemed to capture all the little moments of our wedding day, and I couldn’t have asked for better pictures, or a better photographer. She made sure that it felt like we were just hanging out with each other, or with our bridal party, rather than posing for a camera.

Before the wedding, Katie helped us plan out all the posed photos we wanted to make sure to take, and she was incredibly efficient in taking all our family photos. We loved the Instagram, Facebook, and Blog post sneak peeks after each event. The slideshow of first look photos during the wedding reception was also amazing, and our guests absolutely loved seeing the getting ready shots so soon. She went above and beyond in every way –climbing over rocks for our engagement shoot, making us feel at ease when we were nervous or awkward, and answering all our questions throughout the planning process. I would highly recommend Katie and Elevate Photography!

A Skilled and Amazing Photographer!

We hired Ryan Erikson of Elevate Photography to be our photographer, and we could not have asked for a better person to photograph our big day! We first considered Elevate and Ryan due to their amazing portfolio work. We also knew that we wanted to spend a bit more on photography, since the day only lasts a few hours, but pictures are forever. We don't regret it one bit. Ryan and his team (Katie and Hannah) were incredible! He captured every angle beautifully. What also drew us to Ryan was his experience with the venue and area. We took gorgeous photos in Rocky Mountain National Park before the ceremony, which wasn't something we considered until he showed his prior work near the area. Our family and friends have told us that his photos of our wedding are magazine worthy material (not that we're amazing looking, it's just that Ryan and the Elevate team take fabulous photos!). They're also super fun and personable--like having fun friends join in on your day and capturing your most precious moments of one of the best days ever. I would hire Ryan and Elevate photography over and over again.

One of the Best Parts of Our Wedding

We are in love with our wedding pictures. Even a few months after the event we still regularly scroll through our gallery and relive the moments Elevate Photography captured so perfectly. It’s been such a treat to be able to share them with friends and family members who couldn't be there in person, and can still share a part of the day because there is such richness in the photos.

In addition to being incredibly talented, the Elevate team is a pleasure to interact with. When first searching for a photographer and speaking to Ryan something he said really stuck out to me. He mentioned that we’d be spending as much time that day with the photographer as we would with each other and his aim was to make that an enjoyable experience. Mission accomplished because after meeting Ryan in person at our engagement shoot we couldn’t wait to hang out with him again at the wedding. He showed us the coolest spots, scouting off the beaten path gems that gave us the moments we dreamed of when choosing Colorado as our destination.
Upon meeting Janae for the first time on the wedding day, it immediately felt like she was a part of our crew. In addition to her creative vision that helped make the most out of our venue to get fun and unique shots, she was prepared for EVERYTHING. From extra bobby pins when my veil needed a boost to loaning me her super cozy scarf as we made the chilly trek to the perfect spot for wedding party photos it was clutch to have such a wedding pro with us.

At the reception our guests were blown away by the slideshow showcasing moments from earlier in the day. They couldn’t believe how quickly such amazing images were turned around. And, everyone commented on how skillfully and efficiently the team got us through the family portraits at the church, making it fun, and not an assembly line of smiles.

Having Elevate Photography as a part of our wedding day made it extra special. We’re already dreaming of future days where we hope to have occasions where they can help us capture more memories.

Phenomenal

Ryan and Katie were absolutely phenomenal! We had worked with Ryan for our engagement shoot in January and fell in love with his gentle guidance and incredible eye. On our wedding day he and Katie worked so well together to capture our special day and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which really isn't our thing)! We have only received a handful of shots but are so in love with what we have received so far! I have no doubt the rest will be just as incredible!

Ryan is amazing! Book Elevate!

Ryan was SO great to work with! Our wedding was in Big Sur, California, and the first time we met him he had already started scouting out how to maximize the venue and surrounding coast. He DELIVERED.
All of our guests commented on how much his passion, fun-loving spirit and professionalism shone through. Each step of the way, he wanted to make sure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted and played such a key role in the day. I'm so grateful to have had his talent with us.
I'll let the photos speak for themselves!

Best wedding photography there is

We had the most amazing experience with Ryan and all of the gang at Elevate Photography. Super great planning process leading up to the wedding, and absolutely above and beyond the whole wedding day. We had two photographers plus an assistant, an incredible value for our package, and not only did they take the most incredible photos, they also helped us stay warm and alive throughout our snowy wintry wedding day. The second photographer dried my feet with her own shirt to help me survive outside and get the snowy pictures I had always dreamt of. We also had the day-of slideshow during the reception and it's the most magical thing on the planet. Could not recommend enough!!

Stunning photography!

Ryan and the Elevate team are absolutely amazing! Our engagement and wedding photos are stunning - we could not have found a more spectacular photographer. From the initial meeting, Ryan was very professional and provided us such good advice. He always answered my countless emails very promptly, and had perfect solutions for everything! We are so thrilled we found Ryan and his team!

Ryan, Michael, and Gabrielle were so amazingly fun to be with the day of the wedding - we honestly felt like they were friends and wedding guests. Not to mention - they were all so helpful in finding epic photo spots, carrying my dress and veil, and helping us over rocks!

Thank you so so much for capturing our engagement and our wedding so beautifully! We are so grateful for your artistry!

Amazing!!!!

Seth (one of the elevate associates) was our photographer and he was simply amazing. The engagement pictures were stunning and he helped us choose a great location for them. We got some framed. The wedding pictures themselves were even more amazing!! Totally thrilled with everything he did. Elevate as a whole was great to work with! I love that they made the packages very customizable to fit any budget. The editing was beautiful. Absolutely recommend!!

Wedding Dreams Come True

We chose Elevate because of their stellar reviews and the unique yet authentic photos on their website. Wow, we are so happy we chose them! Ryan was our photographer and we connected with him right from the beginning at our first meeting. We are so happy we decided to do an engagement session because it enable us to feel comfortable with each other as a couple and getting our photos taken, as well as get comfortable with Ryan, our photographer. For our engagement session, we chose the location, but Ryan had unique specific spots within the location (South Broadway) while letting us choose special spots like our favorite bar or shop. Ryan made sure to keep us within our level of comfort, while also pushing a little to be a little more vulnerable.
Leading up to the big day, Ryan kept in touch about meeting spots and made sure to communicate which photos we wanted (pictures with family, wedding party, etc.). We weren't sure about whether or not we wanted to do "getting ready" photos, but with Ryan's suggestion, we did, and are so happy we did. Ryan found an amazing special spot near lookout mountain (near our wedding venue) and it was beautiful. Our first look was magical but fun. Ryan's other photographer Janae did an excellent job with my husband and his crew, while Ryan took charge of me and mine. They had an additional assistant (forgetting her name), and she was wonderful too. Not only was Ryan so great and flexible with the overall day, but with the various personalities in the wedding party and family. Everyone has an opinion on your big day, and Ryan just rolled with it all, while making sure he got the best shots!
Additionally, as a business, Elevate has it down to a T. They do an excellent job hiring the best photographers who take the shots, as well as the editing/production team.
Overall, we are beyond grateful for everything Elevate has done for us. We will use them for all of our future milestones like family photos. I'd say that besides your venue, your wedding photographer is the most important vendor you can choose, so choose wisely. It felt so good to have someone who we trusted so much by our side in our most intimate moments on the most important day of our lives!

Love them!! Please choose them

Have to say hands down our favorite vendor!!!! From the beginning they wanted to be with us and make everything perfect... shout out to Katie and Chris!!! We love them and can’t even begin to say how amazing they were. Started before when we got engaged they brought us to the studio to show us pics/ videos gave us wine/ beer snacks and wanted to get to know us. Thought the year they would keep checking on us and making sure everything was okay. When it came to the wedding I was beyond thrilled!! They had assistants they were there on time they made you laugh feel comfortable made you feel like a best friend... Katie and Chris were our favorites if we could take them home in our pockets we would! We just loved them and there work... I can’t even begin to touch on their work.. it’s so natural and calm and in the moment ... please go with them you won’t do wrong!! I also have to say I learned from previous brides they say the photography and videography is the most important and I agree 100% !!

100% would recommend to anyone looking to have an awesome wedding

There are honestly not enough positive words in the English language for how amazing the Elevate team is. From the first meeting to the wedding day, they were informative, responsive, creative, supportive, and altogether invested in our happiness and success on such an important day in our lives. Every ounce of what we did with Elevate was worth it. We got their photobooth, which gave us by far the funniest pictures of the night. We also did the day of slideshow, which was amazing because my husband and I got a glimpse of what the other's day had been like so far, and our families got to feel like they were a part of it too. The pictures were incredible for having been taken and edited only a an hour or two before. Ryan and Gabrielle made taking all of our photos an extremely fun experience for everyone involved, and the creative shots we got are some of our favorite pictures of all time. Could not recommend these guys enough

Best Wedding Photographer in Colorado!

For us, the most important wedding vendor was always going to be the photographer because, as special as our wedding day was going to be, the photos would allow us to return to that day whenever we wanted for the rest of our lives; so, consequently, we had the highest standards when selecting a photography team to entrust to both the day itself and the pictorial memories we would cherish every day thereafter. Ryan Erickson and Elevate Photography exceeded those standards.

It was clear that they would from the moment we first walked into the Elevate office viewing room, surrounded by beautiful, crisp images and welcomed with warm cookies and beer. These touches were not superfluous, but rather they foreshadowed the extra thought and attention to detail that would be shown by Ryan and his team throughout our engagement and wedding.

Ryan literally went the extra mile by traveling from Denver to Vail to shoot our engagement photos down by Gore Creek and on top of Vail Mountain. It was during this shoot that we first appreciated how much more goes into capturing the perfect shot than the framing and technique of the photographer (which it was already clear Ryan had in spades). As we skipped over rocks in the creek and clambered over crests to get the perfect mountain vista, Ryan’s gift for naturally disarming us with a well-timed anecdote or an informative new restaurant recommendation came to the fore, allowing us to feel comfortable while he captured candid moments of laughter and happiness. That skill is matched by his eye for the perfect shot, whether it be a forehead kiss in a sun-dappled, autumn-colored aspen grove he found or a sparkly engagement ring contrasted against a verdant, mossy log he identified. The results were breathtaking.

So when it came time for the wedding day itself, we already knew we had an implicit mutual understanding with our photographer. Ryan and the Elevate team picked up on the aesthetic and vibe we were going for instantly and, true to their name, elevated it over and over again. Shot by Ryan, our first look at The Ramble Hotel was captured as if we were on Mad Men at the sleek bar with soft leathers and twinkling chandeliers, but if Mad Men were bursting with color and light. On Ryan’s camera, the relatively shy and mild-mannered groomsmen looked frankly badass in a back alley shoot that evoked the iconic Reservoir Dogs credit scene, while the bridesmaids garden portraits at Blanc stunned. He managed to get each photo we needed with every family and friend permutation before the ceremony, which allowed us to be present for the day thereafter, from the ceremony through the cocktail hour and reception without needing to pose for more photos. And even more important than making us look better than we do, Ryan and his team captured every heartfelt moment and split-second reaction the whole night long.

Elevate Photography’s pictures are our most cherished possessions from the best day of our lives, and, for that, we cannot thank them or recommend them enough.

Giddy over Elevate

Photography was at the top of my list for the things I did not want to compromise on for our wedding. It was critically important to me that we got great photos and felt comfortable with our photographers. As I was looking through options, I kept finding myself coming back to Elevate. I loved the images I was seeing and their mission to give back to the community resonated with me. We ended up booking with them and got connected with Katie. Katie was a doll to work with! She was sweet, personable, professional, and flexible. My mom and I made a last minute trip to Colorado to visit vendors, and Katie was more than willing to work around our schedule just so we could meet her in person before the wedding. We ended up with the dream team the day of our wedding- Katie, Janae, and Hannah. They were all so amazing and wonderful to work with! Katie was a serious pro at orchestrating family photos and moved us along more efficiently than any of our bridal party had experienced in any other wedding. The three girls were able to get wonderful photos despite having to fight against 40+ mile an hour winds and hair flying every which way. We are so grateful for all of Katie's help leading up to the wedding- her recommendations and advice on everything from photography to hairstyles and venues to Djs were so valuable. She felt like a true friend after spending just one day with her, that's how comfortable we felt working with her. My only regret is that when we have kids, we won't be able to call Katie up for our infant photo shoot! I'll just have to work on convincing my husband that a trip to Colorado for family photos with Katie at some point are a must!

Katie Jones was AMAZING

We LOVED the whole team with Elevate!
I had told Katie I wasn’t a fan of the “standing in a row holding flowers and plastered smiles” style of photos and she absolutely got our vision and was awesome!
She also didn’t just expect us to figure out how to interact candidly at every moment, she asked us and our wedding party really thoughtful questions that resulted in special moments in person and captured on camera. She reminded my husband and I to take slow calming breaths amidst the exciting chaos that would sometimes pop up and she was so perfectly focused on making everyone comfortable, to get those perfect shots and so that we would enjoy taking them.
Our photos are epic and beautiful and timeless. I can’t say enough wonderful things!
HIGHLY recommend!!

We had such a blast working with Janae! Not only did she capture the many special moments on our big day, she worked with us on capturing some goofy photos that totally reflect our personality as a couple! I would 100% recommend Elevate to others, as they were professional, polite, fun, and captured such beautiful moments from our engagement to our big day. The pricing seems on point with other top photography companies, but I felt like it was worth every penny and we got other special touches with our package. Our guests LOVED the slide show during the reception which showed the wedding photos we'd captured during the cocktail hour. Typically guests don't get to see the photos or why the bride & groom get pulled away throughout the day and night for these incredible shots. . . this gave them a glimpse of it all! Truly amazing! I'm going to miss working with Janae, but will definitely be a return customer for future photography needs! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

If you're here already know Elevate is one of the best photographer companies in Colorado. Katie was my main photographer and then I had a second shooter, Allie and an assistant as well. They were all lovely, working very effectively to keep us on schedule. The wedding day is a rush for the most part, a bit stressful as well because you need double the time to accomplish everything you want, but regardless, they were there with a smile on their face and very patient with me and specially my husband who doesn't love being the center of attention or posed photos haha so you can imagine.
Yes, they're packages are pricey, but my photos came out a dream!! Would totally recommend.

My Daughter Kayla and Rober got married September 24, 2017 Elevate was part of a Dream Wedding give away. They truly love what they do, both Ryan and Katie were awesome, Ryan even helped the guys with their ties and Katie was ready to send someone to our house because we forgot the cake topper, how amazing it that? we even had a sneak peak of the pictures at the reception which was such a nice treat everyone loved them. I cannot wait to see all of the pictures as they really know how to capture the moment. Thank you all for making my Daughters day so special.

Elevate did an absolutely beautiful job with our engagement and wedding photos. Maybe not the cheapest photographer around, but it was worth every penny. They are the most personable, friendly staff you could ever ask for and put you at ease very quickly. Our main photographer, Ryan, was truly a "ninja" always running around to get the best shots and not afraid to dive to the ground if needed to get the perfect angle. He was extremely communicative and absolutely delightful to work with. Our photos received rave reviews by all. We couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Elevate!!

We knew our wedding photographers would be the most important vendor in the wedding, and Katie from Elevate Photography was the most amazing photographer. She was fun and easy to work with, really thought outside of the box to help us create pictures that reflected our personality, and was completely understanding with what we wanted our wedding to be. Best decision, absolutely, was hiring her!!

To me, the most impressive thing about a photographer is their ability to capture someone's personality in a single frame. Allie Gravel, in my humble opinion, is second-to-none in this ability. For all you future brides overwhelmed at the prospect of choosing dozens of vendors for your wedding, you can- and absolutely SHOULD- trust this business with your photographs. Allie gave us some advice when we met her at the Rocky Mountain Bridal Show that has stuck with us ever since- "When you're choosing your photographer, of course choose someone who takes wonderful photos, but remember how much time you'll be spending with them the day of the wedding. Pick someone who you'll be happy spending the whole day with and who you can be yourself around." Her honest and genuine advice was the some of the best we received throughout the entire process of planning a wedding. Our engagement session was the first time we had ever taken professional photographs, which can be a little bit uncomfortable. She made us feel relaxed, kept us laughing, and by the end we felt like seasoned professionals, totally prepared to take wedding pictures in a few months! We recently received our full spread of wedding photos and everyone has said the same thing - "Your photographer is AMAZING." They truly captured the spirit of the day and the personalities of everyone they photographed. While they're great in the most important ways, they're also great in all the subtle ones that make such a huge difference. They're always available to answer questions quickly, they're on time, they remember your name and your story, and they deliver exactly what they promise. Thank you to Allie, Joni, and Mel for making us laugh, cry (happy tears!), and for giving us a photo gallery full of wonderful memories of the best day of our lives!!

Elevate was amazing. Ryan and Allie were an absolute pleasure to work with, and their photos are so high-quality and unique. They are great at capturing both candid moments as well as more formal engagement and wedding photos. We loved their creativity, and they made us feel right at ease. Our guests have not stopped talking about how great our wedding photos turned out! Highly, highly recommend!

Elevate was my absolute favorite vendor that I worked with! Not only were our photos everything I could have ever hoped for, Katie was so amazing to work with! She was organized, flexible even though we were a bit behind on our wedding day timeline, creative, and made family photos with my HUGE extended family efficient and easy! Katie made sure to get photos and details of the wedding that were important to us. She really listens! All of my guests couldn't stop commenting on how fabulous our photographer was and I've had several people ask me already who did our wedding photos. I will recommend Elevate to anyone and everyone. It is money well spent going with Elevate, and you get SO much out of your package- the day of slideshow was one of my favorite perks. I can't say enough positive things about Elevate and Katie in particular. She is truly amazing, and there is no question that I will be a returning customer years to come.

Elevate was incredible! We worked with Ryan and he was fantastic. He provided us with advice and guidance all the way through the planning process. Our photos were amazing! We could not have been more in love with our engagement photos and our wedding photos! He had so many wonderful ideas and did his best to make sure every photograph was well worth it. We truly could not have been more pleased to work with Ryan. We would proudly recommend Elevate to any future bride and groom, or for any of your photography needs! We will definitely be coming back in the future as our family begins to grow. Thank you so much Ryan and Elevate for everything!

Elevate Photography is absolutely AMAZING!! The quality of work produced from them is outstanding and really captures those special moments.

Ryan was our photographer for our wedding (and engagement shoot). From the moment we met Ryan - via Skype - we knew he was incredible, talented, and had a love for photography. He spent time to get to know us as a couple and learn what was important to us so he could capture those moments and tell our story.

Ryan had incredible talent while shooting which made his pictures stand out among others. He had a special attention to detail which brought to life the moments experienced during our wedding - laughing, crying, hugging, dancing, etc.

Once the wedding was over - Ryan continued to engage us and invite us back to the studio for a primer party which allowed us to soak in all the pictures captured on our special day. This made the entire process so personal and unforgettable.

I cannot thank Ryan & Elevate enough for making our day.... you did a great job and I would recommend you to anyone in search of a photographer. Thanks!!

We absolutely loved our experience with Elevate Photography. From the beginning our photographer Allie made us feel comfortable and welcomed. She went out of her way to get to know us at the engagement shoot so that we would be confident going into our wedding day photos. She communicated with us every step of the way. On our wedding day she was so easy to work with and we have had countless guests and family members rave about her work and attitude. We would highly recommend Elevate Photography and their amazing staff.

We were truly amazed while working with Elevate Photography. First, as a bride I can speak to the overwhelming amount of “things” that need to get done. Our photographer McCory was organized, efficient and eased our minds that our day would be documented perfectly. We were fortunate that McCory was willing to travel to Rhode Island to be our photographer. He was very accommodating, meeting with us through Skype and face time to review needed details. He spent the day before the wedding scoping out the area around our church and reception venue to find the perfect backdrops for pictures. Our entire wedding party thoroughly enjoyed working with him the day of the wedding; his fun personality and ideas for pictures were perfect. Turn around on viewing our pictures was very fast. We received a sneak peak of photos on a blog a few days after the wedding, and just one month after the wedding had all of our wedding photos available to view and order. Reviewing the photos truly was like reliving the day as all our most precious moments and people’s personalities were captured so accurately. We met with McCory for a final Skype meeting to review all the options of albums and ordering prints. From a studio standpoint, although we were not able to see the studio itself we are impressed with the selection of choices for orders. We are so honored that Elevate photography was a part of our day, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer.

Holy crumbs, can I give a vendor more than 5 stars?! If I could, I would give Elevate a 6/5. There were so many things that have blown me away with Elevate, but specifically our photographer, Katie. She was the best. Seriously. At our Engagement photos she got to know us and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and then on our wedding day she captured so many special moments - and the day of slideshow that they do is fantastic!! Thank you Elevate for everything you did for Kaleb and I! You made our wedding so beautiful and special. And not only did I get the best photographer, I even got a new friend!

I can't say enough how amazing it was to work with Katie and Elevate! My family and friends were in awe of our wedding photos, saying they are the best they've seen! It was a wonderful process and I'd do it all over again! (For a higher cost even, but don't tell Elevate that. So worth it!).

I cannnot say enough good things about Elevate!! Katie was my wedding photographer and I absolutely loved her. She went above and beyond in every regard and I love both my engagement and wedding photos more then I could have ever imagined. All of my friends and family can't stop talking about how gorgeous the images are. Her talent is top notch!
The entire Elevate team are wonderful people and I HIGHLY recommend them! From initial consultation to ordering albums and prints, I have been so happy and impressed. Thank you so much Elevate!!!!

I absolutely love the team at Elevate and do not have enough good things to say about them! We worked mainly with Jo for our engagement and wedding pictures and then on the day of our wedding had Ali and Sam as well. All three were fabulous!

Not only does Elevate take the most beautiful pictures that truly capture each subject's personality but they actually take the time to get to know you and think about your needs. One example is that the day of our engagement shoot in the mountains it was cold-think 17 degrees cold-but we wanted shots outside in the snow. Jo not only agreed to our craziness but made sure to have warm blankets and the heater going in her car between shots so that we did not freeze to death. On the day of our wedding we had the exact opposite problem-90 degrees and strangely humid for Colorado. Again, Jo was prepared and had water and A/C in the car so we could cool down before the actual ceremony.

Everyone at Elevate made us feel comfortable from beginning to end. From the first time we contacted them there was no pressure and they let us pick the package that worked for our budget. Throughout the process they listened to what we wanted (and did not want). I felt so comfortable with Jo (and the other ladies) and while getting ready it just felt like 3 more friends in the room with me as I prepared for my big day. After the wedding when it came time to discuss buying pictures and figuring out the pictures for our album they were extremely helpful and, again, did not try to pressure us to do anything outside of our budget. They truly focus on what you want as the wedding couple.

Elevate, and specifically Jo, provided us excellent service and beautiful photos that we will treasure forever. I can also say that in the future when we want more pictures of us as a couple and, eventually baby/family pictures, Elevate is the only photographers that I can think of going to-and we no longer live in Colorado so that is saying something!

We found Elevate at the Bridal fair and checked them out on wedding wire and boy was it a great decision! I think they are well worth the money and time. They easily accommodated some non-standard photo shoots and always worked with our schedules. I love that they do premiere parties for all photo shoots and take such good care with editing and providing all of their services. Ali, our photographer really paid attention to the little details that I gravitate towards and was great to work with on capturing all of our special moments.

Katie and the rest of the Elevate team were so great. Katie shot our engagement photos and our wedding, and we had a great time with her at both. It's worth mentioning that our wedding day (in May) began with rain, continued with snow, and ended with the entire wedding being evacuated (flooding) from the venue before we could even sit down to dinner! Katie was amazing, she just kept at it, even though she must have been freezing, and made everything look beautiful! Even our guests commented that she and Allie were awesome and helped people evacuate from our venue to our alternative venue. Excellent, excellent service and beautiful photography! I'm so glad we hired Elevate.

We found Elevate after seeing their work for other friends' weddings. The second we stepped into their office, we felt at home, welcomed, and we didn't think about it twice, we knew we wanted them to capture beautiful pictures like they had captured for others. We were hesitant for a minute about pricing, but once we saw the quality of their work, the care that they put into their work, and how much they valued our input, we knew it would be worth every penny. Ryan captured our engagement session a year before our wedding and having that session not only was a blast, but we got beautiful images from that day as well. Our wedding was last Sunday and Ryan and Allie went above and beyond to make sure they were getting amazing images as well as making sure everything was on track with our timeline. We had so much fun with them, and were sad they couldn't stay to hang out with us longer. Ryan, THANK YOU for the amazing work you do. Our guests were so impressed with your abilities, the slide show, and everything they saw. You guys are one of a kind, and we can't wait to see what you captured!

I literally cannot say enough wonderful things about Katie and the whole team at Elevate. We had so much fun through the entire photography process, even my husband who normally hates taking photos. We enjoyed our engagement shoot last fall and have some great shots. We really appreciated meeting a few weeks before the wedding to go over shot lists. Now our wedding photos, wow! Katie and her team were so much fun to work with. They made us feel relaxed, and we had fun the whole time! The sneak peek was so exciting, and we couldn't wait to see all of our photos. We received them about 5 weeks after our wedding, and they are amazing! I don't know how I will choose photos for our album because they are all great! Katie and the team captured our wedding and personalities perfectly, and I am so thankful that we chose Elevate for our photography!

We booked Elevate for our wedding in September, and worked with Katie Walker and her team. They were an absolute dream to work with, and I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a fantastic photographer. Our engagement pictures were super fun and great prep for the actual wedding, and the photography for the wedding itself exceeded our expectations. They captured so much and were friendly and easy to work with the day of, and kept our formal photos efficient so we could get all of the shots we wanted and still join the party quickly. We picked the package with a slideshow at the reception and it was amazing. We loved it and our guests especially loved it, so you should definitely consider this option! Can't wait to see our full photo gallery next month!

We discovered Elevate Photography when planning a destination wedding in Denver. Various wedding photo books were displayed at all the venues we visited and we were amazed at the beautiful photos that Elevate offered. We met Ryan and felt very comfortable with him from the start and his ideas meshed with what we wanted for our wedding day. He was great on emailing back and forth before the big day as we bounced ideas off each other. Ryan, and his crew, turned up as we were getting ready at the Renaissance Hotel and they went to work – he choose a beautiful spot for our first look in downtown Denver and then followed us to Arrowhead Golf Club for pre-wedding photos. The surprise was the slide show he presented before dinner of some of the photos taken so far that day. Our guests were blown away as we were. We have received our sneak peak of the photos he and his crew have taken and they are amazing. We can’t wait to see the whole package. Ryan was personable, we really connected with him, and loved his ideas for recording our special day. Put Elevate Photography first on your list of choices….they are suburb. Ashley and Jake Green

We had Ryan for our wedding and we could not have asked for any one better! We started with engagement photos in the fall which went so smoothly. Ryan makes you feel at ease every step of the way and takes photos quickly so that you can get a ton of variation. The pictures turned out amazing! we love them. Elevate is extremely accommodating and got us the pictures we needed, designed and ordered our save the dates and put together an amazing sign in book. They are especially responsive with emails, calls and appointments. Whoever you talk to at Elevate is happy and super nice.
When it came to the wedding, it got even beter. Ryan was amazing at getting shots done quickly in our timeline. The day of slideshow they offer is so much fun and our guests loved it! I had quite a few guests raving about Elevate a few weeks past the wedding, which i don't think it common for people to even notice the photographer most of the time! I could not stress enough how amazing Elevate and Ryan are! Seriously helped make my day incredible and I cant wait to see all the wedding photos in a few weeks! Use them for your wedding! you will not be let down!

Elevate was great at working with us to find something that would fit our style and budget, and they are totally worth the money! They were very flexible when we thought we might need to change our wedding date somewhat last minute and were very responsive via email almost always responding the same day if not the following day. On the day of our wedding they did a great job of keeping us on schedule without rushing as well as keeping everyone and everything organized. The final product turned out spectacular and we constantly receive compliments on our photos. I have since referred several of my friends to them and will continue to do so. You will not be disappointed with the products and service your receive from Elevate!

Ryan was fantastic. He went above and beyond to get great pictures, even laying in the dirt in his nice suit to get the right shots! He made us feel at ease, and comfortable. The pictures came out beautifully, we had a hard time choosing which ones to put on the wall, they were all fantastic! They are such a great studio that we came back for family pictures, and will be our go to for any future professional picture needs.

When My fiancé and I were looking for a wedding photographer for our wedding it started out being one of the most frustrating experiences during the wedding planning process. That ALLY changed when I went to the elevate studio. I met with over 12 different photographers prior to finding Elevate and the second I stepped into their studio everything just fit from the very start! From the generosity, professionalism, incredible talent, and kindness, I knew we had found our "one". I have met with many of the photographers and I have had nothing but the best experiences with each and every one of them. Whether it was through face to face meetings, emails, phone calls, our engagement session, you name it, they always have delivered above and beyond. Elevate has been so accommodating and made this wedding planning process a breeze. The quality of their work is like no other! We are so pleased and feel so spoiled to have the pictures that we do, as they are simply breath taking and absolutely perfect. We are forever grateful for EVERYONE at Elevate and my fiancé, family and friends and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!!!

We used Elevate Photography for our daughter's engagement and wedding photographs. Just wow. Their creative eye captured all the love and happiness of the day, and the photographs that we will have forever will remind us of how fantastic the entire event was. Wedding guests were even treated to a slide show sneak peak of the day's photographs during the reception. That was a first and that addition made the event even more memorable for all. Thank you for making our daughter's wedding perfect.
Looking forward to the next session, for our other daughter's senior photos!

Elevate is the best! We used Ryan for our wedding and Ali for our maternity photos. My favorite thing about them was the slide show that they were able to put on during my reception. While everyone ate, they put together the photos of us getting ready before the wedding, the photos from the ceremony, and the photos of my husband and I after the ceremony. Everyone enjoyed this so much because the guests do not get to see the part where the wedding party is getting ready and the photos that we take after the ceremony. It was so awesome how they could put that together in such a short time. Their photos stand out far from all the rest!! The album we purchased was unbelievable. The paper had this slight shimmer to it making the photos so elegant which really complimented the theme of my wedding. The photographers were so experienced with my venue and knew the best spots to capture the surroundings and the special moment. We had the hardest time narrowing down the 850 photos for our album and prints because every single one of them was amazing in its own special way. They are a little pricey but I gave them a 5 for value because it was worth every penny!! I would highly recommend them. We purchased their Client for Life program so we can use Elevate every year to take photos of our growing family.

My fiance and I have had experience with two of the photographers at Elevate. They are all so wonderful and make you feel taken care of and comfortable. We had our engagement session with McCory and he is amazing. We had so much fun, it was so natural and he caught all of our moments, silly and romantic. We were so happy with the turn out of ALL of our shots. The photo viewing is awesome they way they show you and they are very thorough with all the packages available. They are easy to get a hold of...email or phone, and flexible. We are so happy that we chose elevate to capture this special time in our lives and I cannot wait for the wedding photos!!!

Ryan at Elevate Photography surpassed any and all expectations my wife and I had. To say that he and the people at Elevate did an outstanding job would be an understatement. The quality and artistic impressions of each photo were incredible... what really stood out to us was how crisp and clear the photos were- and our guests noticed at the wedding. We had our wedding and engagement photos done by them, and had some of the engagement photos at the wedding. We also chose the package with the slideshow during the wedding which included photos from earlier in the day with the groomsmen and bridesmaids, plus the first look. Countless people came up to us after the wedding and told us how amazing the pictures from the slideshow were. I can't recommend them enough to anyone looking for a photographer, they were spectacular.

Elevate Photography is amazing. We had our engagement and wedding photos done by Katie. Katie makes the whole process enjoyable, by laughing, having fun, and making us feel super comfortable. Katie is amazing with natural light and all her photos look perfect even before they are edited. We couldn't have been happier to have her shoot our wedding! We are officially clients for life.

Amazing. Jo at Elevate shot our wedding and did an incredible job. Photography was very important to us, and this was the best experience out of all our wedding. She helped the day run very smoothly, and kept checking in with me. Cannot recommend Elevate enough- such quality!

Katie & Jo at Elevate are absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough good things about them, both as people & professionals. They are so easy to work with, and make you feel instantly at ease. They were both patient & efficient with our wedding party (which should not be underestimated). They are extremely professional & creative & and took AMAZING pics. We have gotten a few back & have received so many compliments already! We are so happy with went with Elevate!!

Best. Photos. Ever.! I love that I got 2 photographers for the day and one of the best things was half way thru the ceremony they did a quick edit of the photos that were taken earlier in the day and did a quick slide show for all of us..Perfect!

We worked with Jo for our photos and all I can say is WOW! This girl ROCKS! Awesome personality and man does she have an eye for photography!!!! We knew from the moment we met her that we would really click with her. She was a dream to work with. I was blown away by our engagement photos. So far we have only seen a preview of our wedding photos but my goodness they are more than I could have ever imagined. The second shooter she brought with for the day off was awesome too. Very kind and fun. We are laid back people with fun, goofy personalities and they both meshed very well with us. Jo was even able to tame our crazy wedding party and that was definitely a feat!!!!

Elevate is a little on the pricey side but I'm a firm believer in "you get what you pay for". This was one area I didn't mind splurging in. The photos are the only thing you really have once the wedding is said and done. I'm so glad I picked Elevate to work with. Especially Jo. WORTH EVERY PENNY! THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN JO!!!!!!!!

Jo shot our engagement and wedding photos. We couldn't be more pleased. She was a pleasure to work with and listened to everything we asked of her. She's got real talent and we didn't need to give too much instruction because she knew what needed to be done. While it cost more than we wanted to spend initially, it was worth every penny.

Stephanie and Ali were great!!! I don't like having my picture taken but they made us feel so comfortable. It was actually fun. Stephanie was open to my ideas for photos that I saw on Pinterest and made a list so that we got all those photos taken. My parents remarked that they never really saw the photographers during the ceremony but they know they were taking photos. They were not intrusive or anything. Such a great experience and company to work with!

We came across Elevate at the Rocky Mountain Bridal Show last year and after carefully reviewing more than 30 online portfolios we knew Elevate was simply the best. There entire staff is friendly, professional, genuine, and strive for excellence. We hired Katie to be our wedding photographer and could not be happier. From our engagement shoot through the wedding day we knew we made the right choice. She is an incredible photographer and made sure to capture our "must-have photos". Elevate as a studio is second to none. Included in our package was a beautiful album, all our digital photos on a custom engraved flash drive, a day-of slideshow presented during our reception, and a stunning photo display at our reception. They also held 2 photo premiere parties for us to share our photos with our family and friends at their studio. The service and quality of their work is truly astounding and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

McCory and Katie at Elevate Photography captured our wedding better than I could have even imagined. On top of just being incredibly good at what they do, they were a pleasure to be around, taking last minute changes in stride and managed to coral our rather large wedding party and family in a timely and friendly manner. Our guests are still talking about how cool the day of show after dinner was!

We cannot say enough about how happy we are that Ryan from Elevate Photography was our wedding photographer. We first met Ryan for our engagement session in DC. My husband and I met and live in DC so we wanted to have photos from our time here. Our engagement photos took our breath away. They are gorgeous! On our wedding day Ryan and his team had scouted out locations around our venue that we never knew existed. Again, the photos are simply stunning. We have heard from family and friends that they are suffering "photo envy" after seeing our wedding photos. The colors are bright, photos are crisp and simply beautiful! We recommend Elevate Photography wholeheartedly, and cannot say enough good things about them. Hands down the best wedding photos we have ever seen (and not just because they are ours).

Elevate was recommended to me by a friend when I was having issues finding a photographer. I sent an email from their website an immediately got a response. I met with Stephanie and thought she was great! Our engagement photos turned out awesome. The day of the wedding she was awesome! The additional services that they provide make their service even better! I got the package that had they day of slide show in it! It was amazing to be able to see the awesome shots and moments that she had captured from the day! I am still get compliments from my guest on this! I would highly recommend Stephanie and Elevate Photography to anyone looking for a photographer!

We interviewed several photographers but the staff at Elevate had everything we desired. Capturing the candid moments and detail was very important to us. Katie worked extremely hard during both the engagement and wedding session. She was very fun, outgoing and her artistic imagination was evident through the pictures. We loved the customer service and lifelong keepsakes.

Rule of thumb when planning a wedding: ALWAYS follow your instincts. My instincts proved me soooooo right when I hired Ryan from Elevate Photography. He was worth every penny and I highly recommend him. He is NOT the typical photographer that will pose you in front of a tree and call it a day. He has a talent in photography that is unique, personalized, easy and second to none.

My husband and I are creative people and didn't want the "typical" engagement or wedding photos. Ryan understood this and delivered beyond our expectations. Ryan's work speaks for itself. His portfolio and my experience is proof. He has a calm and relaxed energy about him which is a quality that is important in a photographer. Taking pictures can be awkward and he has a way of making you feel at ease. The pictures don't lie! And, he's willing to improvise or be flexible too.

The value he provided was beyond our expectations. He provided a "First Look" slide show where he played our pictures on a screen during our reception. His team literally put these pictures together in minutes to present our guests. My guests still talk about it to this day. They felt special and included in those special "first look" moments when my husband and I first saw each other on our wedding day. He also displayed one of our favorite engagement photos on this huge light frame placed at the entrance of our banquet room. we felt like rockstars. Unbelievably awesome!!

I'm rambling and I can't help it. He's just awesome and his talent and skills are OUTSTANDING.

Not only did I get an amazing photographer, but we also got a great friend! Katie with Elevate Photography was a true blessing. We had the honor of working with her for our engagement pics in September, and she truly shined on our wedding day in June. Her attention to detail was amazing! She even risked HER OWN LIFE by standing on ends of mountains to get that perfect shot! I loved her creativity and willing to try new shots. We felt like stars in Hollywood as she made sure she was everywhere she needed to be. Even though we only had the one photographer, she did wonderfully! I could not ask for a better photographer!!

Ryan was our photographer with Elevate Photography. He did an absolutely amazing job. I can't believe how great our pictures look. He had about 20 pictures up on facebook the same night as the wedding, which was lots of fun for friends and family to see right after the wedding. Then, he had all the pictures done and up on the website only a few weeks after the wedding. I still can't believe he got them done so quickly.

It rained on our wedding day, which makes having an outdoor ceremony difficult, and makes taking outdoor pictures even more difficult. But, Ryan stuck with us and got great pictures outside in the meadow at our venue whenever it would stop raining or only be raining a little (and had one of our friends hold an umbrella over him so the camera didn't get wet). He had a great attitude all day, even though I'm sure it was a very stressful situation for him since we weren't sure how many pictures we would be able to get.

We loved working with Ryan. My husband has a weird smile if some one tells him to smile for a pictures. But, he has a great smile if he's just smiling at some one or laughing. Ryan was able to get him to smile naturally for all of our pictures (something I can't even get him to do). The pictures are great and show how much fun we had that day, even in the rain! He really captured the moments well. I was also impressed with the quality of our pictures overall. You know how you look at a company's pictures online, but you think to yourself, "these look great, but these are their very best pictures that they are showcasing to get your business, I wonder what their average pictures look like." Well, our pictures were as great as the pictures on the website. I was thoroughly impressed with how great they came out. They look like they are magazine quality! I would absolutely recommend Elevate, and specifically, Ryan from Elevate, to any one looking to get pictures taken. Very professional, but lots of fun, and laid back enough that he never made me feel stressed out, and wonderful pictures!

Also, we get a CD with all of our pictures on it, and the lower budget photo albums are very affordable (which is what we decided to go with). We also did an engagement sitting and we're so glad we did. It gave us a chance to get to know Ryan better, and it gave him a chance to get to know us, too. Then we had a lot of fun (but high quality) pictures of us to use for newspaper announcements, etc. We also framed a few of our engagment pictures and put them up in our new house. :)

We had the pleasure of working with Ryan from Elevate Photography for our June 25th wedding. The whole experience from booking him to finally getting to see our pictures online was wonderful. I spent days looking at different portfolios online before choosing Ryan and I definently made the right decision! He was so flexible and easy to work with, his professionalism impressed my entire wedding party. He was completly at ease throughout the entire day capturing images that we will charish for a lifetime. He was able to corral our large wedding party into wonderful poses all the while making the experience fun and enjoyable. Now that the pitctures are online they are impressing our entire town :). People say that they have never seen every single wedding photograph turn out so well. I am so happy with Ryan's work I would recommend him to anyone, and I do!! After all, after the excitement of the day are over, pictures are going to be the only thing (besides your new spouse of course) that you will have left. I urge anyone seeking a photographer to use Ryan, you will not be disappointed!! :)

Ryan with Elevate Photography was absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding photos. Right from the start he was incredibly responsive to emails and phone calls, calling within hours of us submitting an email to schedule a time to meet. Before meeting, we were pretty sure about having Elevate do our wedding photography because we loved our friends’ Graham and Stefanie’s wedding photos. Meeting Ryan and seeing his outstanding portfolio solidified this decision.

The day of our wedding, we were impressed when Ryan arrived very early to scope out our mountain venue and find several beautiful backdrops for photos. Throughout the day, he was fun to be around and made us and our entire wedding party feel comfortable. During the ceremony and reception, we barely noticed that Ryan was there, yet it was evident from the photos that he was, as one of our groomsmen put it, “everywhere.” When the reception went longer than expected, he was flexible about staying for more time than originally planned to take more photographs, despite the long, late drive back to Denver from Mount Princeton.

When our photos arrived, we were dazzled! Ryan’s photography captured everything from intimate to humorous to artistic. The photos of the two of us were gorgeous, and we were especially pleased by the photos of the wedding party. Having been an attendant in many weddings before, I’ve had to ask myself a few times if I’d actually been in a wedding or two because there were so few shots of the wedding party. Ryan made our wedding party feel that they were an inextricable part of our day, which is true to our relationship with our friends.

Equally commendable is the turn-around time for wedding photos at Elevate Photography. Our wedding was December 19th, and our photos were posted online by January 7th. We didn’t even have to wait a month for nearly 600 professionally taken and creatively edited photos. I can’t remember ever seeing a friend’s wedding photos posted so quickly. Ryan even put together a short video of our wedding photos set to music for our friends and family to enjoy on Facebook. We recommend Ryan and Elevate Photography without reservation.

Ryan at Elevate Photography was so easy to work with and captured our wedding in a beautiful and creative way-I definitely recommend him for wedding photos! The photos he took were a great mix of standard family wedding shots and creative and artsy shots that really captured the feeling and emotions of the day. He scoped out a few spots around our ceremony/reception site and then took us there and helped us set up lovely photos. I never would have thought to go to the top of the Cherry Creek Mall parking garage, but the photos ended up being some of our best!

We never really noticed him during the ceremony and reception (in a good way!). He was able to direct our big distracted families and knock out family photos after the ceremony so we had time to mingle and hang out with our guests during the cocktail hour. Our wedding album turned out really great and I definitely recommend Ryan!

Our photos were absolutely amazing. We are so lucky to have found Elevate, and especially Ryan! He was so easy to work with and half of the time, we never noticed he was there...capturing amazing images of our beautiful day. We were speechless when we received our photos and we cannot stop looking at them! We cannot thank Elevate enough.

Ryan shot our engagement session, and Ryan and Katie shot our wedding and reception. The photographs reflect our personal style and truly capture the magic of that day.
The Elevate team worked with us to create a package that suited our needs, and were fun, professional, and very talented. I would choose them again in a heartbeat.

I loved working with Elevate Photography! We chose Katie as our photographer, and not only did she take really creative and amazing photos, but she was very easy to work with, had a great, fun attitude, and was very efficient! I dealt primarily with Ryan on the "business" end of things (contracts, photo gallery post-event, etc.) and he too is incredibly quick to respond to questions/concerns. I had no worries about photos on my wedding day, and now have wonderful pictures to have and share forever! A+! :)

I wouldn't recommend anyone other than Elevate Photography for a wedding, or any other event for that matter. We looked at a variety of photographers around Denver before hearing about Elevate Photography through a friend. I looked at their website and saw that the photos were consistently better than any of the other sites I looked at. On top of that, they were flexible and one of the most reasonably priced out there! Ryan shot our engagement and wedding photos, as well as those for several of our friends. He's always turned out a great product, and we received access to our photos in two weeks...not much more you could ask for!

If you haven't made up your mind on a photographer, give them a call and see what they have to say. Ryan was incredibly easy to work with, and we constantly get comments about how well our photos turned out.

If I had to describe Elevate Photography in a single word, it would most definitely be amazing! We started our wedding planning process about a year and a half before our May 2010 wedding. We checked out a handful of photographer referrals that we received from friends, coworkers and frankly anyone with an opinion and quickly switched focus to find a photographer that better suited our style. Elevate popped on our radar after seeing a listing a listing on a wedding website; we checked out their portfolio and the search stopped there. Elevate had everything we were looking for: fun, unique and vibrant photos; something that captured our personalities and truly showed what a fun loving couple we are. Best of all, they fit our budget (because when planning a wedding during a recession, this definitely matters).

All of the photographers at Elevate are amazingly talented. We specifically worked with Ryan, for both our engagement and wedding photos, and truly can’t say enough good things about him. We could tell from that first meeting that Ryan has a passion for both photography and working with people--we knew that we were making the right decision and wouldn’t be disappointed. Ryan without a doubt surpassed all of our expectations; he was incredibly professional, responsive, provided great feedback based on his experience and was flat out a blast to work with.

As for our pictures, they’re just incredible! There’s really no other way to describe them. They’re so far beyond what we were hoping for and it’s completely a result of Ryan’s vision and amazing talent.

If I could give the future brides and grooms any advice in planning their wedding, it would be to: a) book Elevate Photography and b) be open and willing to try anything they suggest. If you follow those two guidelines, you will definitely not be disappointed!

McCory and his team were absolutely amazing before, during and even after our wedding. The moments that he captured were priceless. I received numerous comments from other guests of how personable the entire team was throughout the wedding and everyone has absolutely loved being able to view the photos online. The pictures were loaded up in 2 weeks - right before we went on our honeymoon (as promised) :) and allowed us to relive our wedding before leaving on our vacation. I would absolutely use Elevate Photography again and have already recommended them to friends getting married. I will continue to use Elevate Photography as we continue our lives together and our family grows. Thank you all for capturing the best moments of our wedding.

Formerly McCory James Photography, Elevate Photography is one of Denver's best. McCory shot my brother-in-law's wedding two years prior and my husband's family was so impressed with his work. Before getting our appointments set up, I browsed through all their photographs and was amazed at the quality, attention to detail, and creativity. The pictures were amazing and McCory can make even the most regular person look elegant and beautiful.
Every picture we got back was top quality; no "it would have been a great picture except for...". We were perfectly posed, in natural and fun ways, and McCory took a lot of spontanous pictures, too. It was definitely not the run-of-the-mill experience. The best thing was, aside from the formal pictures at the church, I never even noticed he was there. He was completely discreet and made sure to stay in the background, while capturing the best photos I've ever had. When you do meet with him or pose for any of the group pictures, he's a lot of fun & has a great personality. My photos were put online for family and friends to view and order - I didn't have to do any of it. We got a leather-bound box back with a printout of every picture, as well as a CD with all the pictures. We'll also get a wedding album with pictures that we pick - it's fantastic quality.
Hands down, without a second thought, McCory is amazing and you won't be disappointed.

We could not have been more thrilled with the outcome of our photographs. They are STUNNING!! We are so excited to show them off and have received countless comments on how great they are. Ryan and McCory were both a pleasure to work with and made the experience quite enjoyable! Looking back at the pictures from the day I'm surprised by some of them, because I had no idea either of there were there taking the moment!! Thank you so much for our lasting memories!!

Ryan at McCory James was absolutely terrific to work with--he did a phenomenal job! We're so happy with our photographs. We purchased the package with the engagement photos so we got a chance to work with Ryan before the wedding. He is professional, fun and a talented photographer. The wedding was almost a month ago, but we can re-live it all with the terrific photographs. We couldn't be more pleased! Ryan captured our day perfectly.

McCory was our photographer for our August 2 wedding. He spoke with me before the wedding numerous times to be sure he understood my needs and wants of my wedding day. He showed up right on time, and he was very enjoyable to be around for the pre-wedding pictures. The ideas he had for photos were unique, and I've received so many complements on the wedding set. He captured all of the most important moments of the night, as well as details that I would have missed had it not been for the pictures. His professionalism was much appreciated, and although he got around 500 pictures, I felt like I didn't see him all night. It was very apparent that he is a professional who has been doing this for a very long time, and his passion is intertwined with every picture. I would HIGHLY recommend McCory, and I plan to go back to him for all of my future pictures.

Ryan Erickson was the one who photographed our very special day! From the start both him and Mccory were very helpful! They both answered all of the many questions I had, after all this was one of the most important vendors, since the photographs are what we keep forever. I was able to book Ryan right away and his personality really fit mine and my husbands. The pictures that he took of our wedding are absolutely beautiful and timeless! I was very pleased with his job, and the cost wasn't bad at all. I shopped around a lot and had several meetings with photographers, but the prices they had were outrageous! I'm so glad I found Ryan because I got just what I wanted without having to break my bank account! : ) He is so awesome. On the wedding day he knew just what to do. I had 14 people in my wedding party and 300 guests and he was able to get all those special moments and get the whole wedding party together for the pictures. We had a lot of fun with him. I really recommend him! Everyone in my family as well as my husband and I are very glad we chose him as our photographer. He really gave us photos that will last for a lifetime!!

McCory did an incredible job photographing my wedding. He took unique and beautiful photographs and truly captured the spirit of the day. In addition to being professional, he was an all-around great guy. We have received many comments from family and friends about his professionalism, service and great attitude.

I couldn't have chosen a better photographer and look forward to using his services in the future.

Absolutely amazing pictures. McCory is really good at capturing the emotions and moments that you would want to remember. We used his services for our engagement and wedding pictures. He showed up on time and acted professionally towards us and our guests. We love our candid pictures - most of the times we didn't even realize that he was making the pictures and we were pleasantly surprised to see the pictures after that.

When I began planning my wedding, the very first thing I did was make sure that McCory was available to be our photographer. He photographed my sister's wedding and I was so impressed with the quality and the uniqueness of his style, I knew that I needed him to be a part of my wedding day, as well. He arrived early to our wedding, was always professional, and perfectly captured the feeling of our special day. I would recommend McCory James Photography to any bride who wants photos that she will be proud to show her grandchildren. Thanks, McCory!

I can't tell you how happy me, my husband and my family were with the quality and professionalism of McCory James Photography. McCory is a delight to work with and captured our wedding day perfectly. My pictures were candid and unique; during the ceremony and reception you didn't even know he was there. Our photos were online within 2 weeks to share with our family and friends. I would highly recommend McCory and his team. He came to us highly recommended from other brides and he didn't disappoint!
