Telluride views, down-to-earth in-love souls, a golden hour out of this world and love celebrated by a close inner circle. This elopement between Ellie and Kevin will forever be stamped in my heart and in my memory.

As a photographer, being a piece of a bigger wedding can seem like a smaller part in the big picture. However, as a photographer at an elopement, you’re really in it as a bigger piece. There’s a different weight that carries with it. One that comes with recognizing that you get to be let in just a little bit more and be someone that gets to hold those memories a little more closely.

I have so much gratitude for Ellie and Kevin letting me be a piece of their Telluride elopement day and into their circle. Getting to capture the two of them and those that are in their corner, just as they are with all of the beautiful layers and love they share, was an honor. Ellie and Kevin made it feel like the real deal kind of special and I dig it. Hope you do too…
