Grand Mesa Color Sunday Fall Wedding

 
Grand Mesa Color Sunday Fall Wedding

I don’t know how it has taken me almost a full year to share this incredible camp themed wedding up on the Grand Mesa in the fall! These two rented out side by side ranger cabins where they stayed over night with friends and family. On the morning of their wedding, they got dressed in separate cabins, had their first look on an incredible wood bridge over a creek, had their friends and family in camp chairs during their ceremony, took a perfectly decorated canoe out (peep those ducks y’all), and ended the evening with a sunset dinner outside.

If that sounds amazing, just wait till you see the photos. I think what I loved most about this day, despite it being so up my alley being camp themed and outdoors, was that the day felt so real and genuine to these two. A wedding day that perfectly encapsulated what they value and live for, and I love it.

Leave No Trace is super important to me so this last photo was photoshopped from someone who had already carved B&R into the tree. The aspen tree arch during their ceremony is also sourced from their own private land. :)

Hi, I'm Kimberly 👋

Colorado elopement photographer, snack enthusiast, and your personal hype woman for ditching the traditional wedding entirely.

I spend most of my time wandering dirt roads around Crested Butte, the San Juans, and Denver finding the kind of spots that make you forget what stress even feels like. You know — the ones with the views that hit different at sunrise, where the wildflowers are doing too much, and the only witnesses are a couple of marmots and your dog in a tiny bandana.

If you're dreaming of vows somewhere wildly beautiful with zero seating charts involved, hi. That's literally what I do. You bring the love story. I'll bring the camera, the location ideas, and enough snacks to get us through golden hour.
