FOR COUPLES WHO WANT THEIR photos TO FEEL LIKE THE DAY ITSELF — REAL, RAW, EFFORTLESS & ARTFULLY TOLD.
Your photos are the tangible memories that will take you right back to the mountain air and the way it all felt. They shouldn’t just document your day, they should preserve the wind, the stillness, the joy, and the in-between moments that made it yours.
As a Colorado elopement photographer, my mission is to capture every quiet breath, big laugh, and fleeting second that tells your story with honesty and warmth. I photograph in digital, 35 mm film, and nostalgic Super 8, creating a gallery that blends documentary authenticity with cinematic texture.
From the first trailhead consult to the last light on the peaks, your elopement is photographed with intention, composed, natural, and true to you. With a mix of editorial framing and journalistic storytelling, I create images that feel timeless and alive; photographs that will still make your heart race years from now.

I’M EMILY! A DOCUMENTARY-STYLE COLORADO ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER SHOOTING DIGITAL, 35MM FILM & SUPER 8.
My work blends storytelling & editorial minimalism to create galleries that feel timeless and true to your day.
The short of it: I’m a Colorado based, national park loving, mountain peak chasing elopement photographer who never gets over how the light hits at 10,000 feet. I’m endlessly inspired by the stillness, the movement, and the emotion of these landscapes.
My passion is helping couples celebrate their connection in wild, intentional ways, without the rush of a traditional timeline.
Like evergreen trees,
my photos are everlasting.
WHY shoot FILM - IN PHOTOS & MOTION?
There’s something magical about film, both 35mm and Super 8 video, that digital can’t quite match. Shooting with film has made me a more intentional, thoughtful, and creative storyteller. Every frame feels nostalgic, imperfect in the best way, and filled with the emotion of the moment.
Having 35mm film included in your wedding package offers a tangible, timeless way to preserve the day. The tones, the textures, the feeling, all offer a nostalgic form of your wedding photos. In a world of instant everything, working with film brings back simplicity and a slower pace. Each roll has 24-36 exposures, so I slow down, frame things carefully, and capture the moments that truly matter. Every click of the shutter is intentional, and each image holds weight.
Okay, what's the big deal?
ALL weddings and elopements are shot in hybrid with 35mm film & digital!
Super 8, on the other hand, is where your story comes to life in motion. It’s not about cinematic perfection and there is a nostalgic texture to it that instantly transports you back. It's not polished or perfect, just honest and full of life. Each reel is filmed by hand and edited into a highlight that feels like stepping back into your wedding day, exactly as you remember it. You end up with a dreamy, documentary-style wedding film that feels straight out of a memory.
Every wedding and elopement I shoot includes both digital and film, so your day is preserved in every form, still, motion, and emotion.
things evergreen photo co. stands for
leave no trace
At Evergreen Photo Co., one of my core principles is to follow all Leave No Trace protocols to protect the lands we love so much. As a Colorado elopement photographer, it is extremely important to me to educate my clients on LNT so that we can protect these lands for future generations to enjoy. I believe we only have one world, and we all deserve to experience its natural beauty.
UNSCRIPTED moments
Inclusivity always
I love love, in all forms. At Evergreen Photo Co you can expect your love story to be welcomed exactly as it is, always. This means no judgment, no awkward poses that don’t reflect you as a couple, and a whole load of acceptance and excitement. My only request is that you be as crazy, madly, and deeply in love with your partner as I am with capturing that love on camera.
I believe in the power of honest, unposed moments that reflect your real connection, not just how things looked, but how they felt. My approach combines a documentary style with an editorial eye: I capture the big and small moments as they unfold naturally, and step in to give thoughtful direction when it's needed. I'm here to capture all the movement and the in-between moments that matter most.

"Emily was incredibly communicative, compassionate, and genuinely excited to capture our special day "
Evergreen Photo Co. was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first interaction, Emily was incredibly communicative, compassionate, and genuinely excited to capture our special day. Her attention to detail and ability to keep us on schedule was invaluable, and the final photos were nothing short of amazing. We could not have asked for a better photography experience, and we would highly recommend Evergreen Photo Co. to any couple looking for a must-book vendor for their wedding.

"She took our engagement and wedding photos, and they are simply incredible"
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Emily! She took our engagement and wedding photos, and they are simply incredible. Every time we meet she is so friendly and makes you feel so comfortable in front of her camera! She provides the perfect amount of guidance - making sure you're going to have exceptional pictures that still feel natural and genuine. I have received so many comments from friends and family about how much they love our photos and raving reviews from our other vendors, who said she was an absolute pleasure to work with at our wedding! Even with some last-minute hiccups on our wedding day, Emily was professional, fun, and flexible. Added bonus: she provided our sneak peeks in record speed! I will, without a doubt, be using Evergreen Photo Co. for all of our future photography needs!
