hi there,   I’m Kimberly.

Elopement Photography Kimberly Crist

I take photos for people who want to get married outdoors without wanting to hike.

If adventure to you means mountain views, cozy cabins, and zero hiking pressure, same.

I also don’t want to emotionally prepare for a 10 mile hike so I’m here to help you build a wedding day that feels good to be in. Not rushed, not overplanned, not pretending to be something just because you think you’re supposed to.

Here’s what I handle:
→ Finding locations that gorg and accessible
→ Building a timeline that breathes so you don’t feel rushed
→ Permits, logistics, backup plans, all that “stuff”
→ Making sure you have snacks (the most important part)

You just show up ready to laugh, explore, and say your vows somewhere that feels like you. Drink your coffee, wander around, laugh when things get weird.

No fake smiles. No awkward posing. Just you two, soaking it in, while I catch it all behind camera. And I’ll just be losing my mind internally because this is exactly why I do this.

Hiking is really just an excuse for me to eat pastries in scenic locations, let’s be honest.

If there’s water, I’m in it. Temperature and common sense be damned.

I eloped with my best friend and cried during our vows. 10/10 would recommend.

I actually love hiking but I’m not into making a couple hike on their wedding day and TBH I don’t really want to too.

My dog and I (and a suspicious amount of snacks ) live out of the back of my car all summer.

Yes, I’ll hike anywhere in a wedding dress to show a couple what they’re location could look like…

The Person You’ll be Hanging Out With All Day

When I’m not photographing couples, I’m probably off exploring dirt roads in my Land Cruiser, over caffeinating, and trying to convince my dog he’s not the main character (he definitely is).

I’m originally from Ohio but have lived in Colorado for 11+ years and now spend most my time chasing mountain light and new trails. Basically: if it involves snacks, good weather, or an excuse to wear a beanie, I’m in!!!

Why You’re in Good Hands

  • 100+ couples photographed across Colorado

  • Constantly scouting hidden gem locations you won’t find on Pinterest

  • Known to cry at vows and still nail the shot every single time

Why You’ll Want me There

Because you want a photographer who cares about your experience as much as your photos. Who helps you plan, adapt, and actually enjoy the day instead of performing for the camera.

Let’s Make this a Thing

Whether you’ve mapped the whole thing out or just know you want cake and vows somewhere pretty, I’ll help you build a day that feels like you.
