"When Kari first sent just the sneak peaks of our photos I couldn't believe how beautiful they were, they looked like art! Kari was our dream wedding photographer. She went way above and beyond what we could have expected or asked for. Not only did she make the day run so smoothly, but she also delivered our images extremely fast! And I can't stop looking at our photos"
"Kari was the wedding photographer of our dreams!"
Kari is THE BEST. My fiancé and I were a little nervous going in to our engagement shoot, as we can both sometimes be a little awkward in front of the camera, but Kari made us feel so comfortable right away. Kari is the ultimate hype-woman. She delivered our full gallery so quickly and full of
amazing images that surpassed our expectations.
"You can tell kari really loves to get to know her couples and make a connection beyond just any photographer."
"Kari is the best photographer I have ever worked with. She is so supportive whether it be engagement photo locations, pose’s, or just a friendly face she is your girl. But also don’t get me started on that lighting and photo editing I can just go on. So to say the least, she is worth it to choose as your photographer!
"Kari made us feel at ease and confident in front of the camera"

I can't stop looking at our photos"
"Our pictures were more beautiful than we could have hoped for."
"I am SO glad that we found Kari! From the first meeting, she was warm and professional. She answered all of our questions and we felt an immediate connection that continued into our photo session. She made us feel SO comfortable and provided great coaching throughout the day. She has gone above and beyond to surprise and delight us and I can't recommend her enough!"

Black Canyon Inn
Lauren and EJ had the PERFECT wedding day! They got married in Estes Park at the Black Canyon Inn. The forecast started out with a high chance of rain and thunderstorms most of the afternoon! While everyone was getting ready there were a few sprinkles of rain, but once the ceremony started the skies held off! In fact, not only did they hold off but the clouds parted and the sun came out!! By the time sunset came around there was not a cloud in the sky!
The Stanley Hotel
Justin was shaking from nerves as he tried to tie his bowtie. The other groomsmen look up instructions online as they helped each other out. Justin had to look perfect when Natalie walked down the aisle.
Natalie came down the aisle escorted by her dad and just looked on as his eyes filled with tears. Once Natalie reached him she smiles with tears in her eyes and reached for his bow tie to try and fix it!
Natalie and Justin dreamed of having their wedding at The Stanley Hotel for a long time. What started as a joke among friends and family became a reality as they planned their beautiful wedding in the Rocky Mountains.
Boulder, CO
"A boy asked a girl to prom... I was on my way to French class when a tall Senior tapped me on the shoulder. "I know your friends told you I was going to ask you. Would you go to prom with me, Chloe?"
I said, "Yes! Of course!" We then parted ways, and occasionally texted about the prom that was a month away. Alex agreed to pick me up for school on the day of the prom so we could have an actual conversation before spending the evening together. It was one of the most comfortable and genuine conversations I've ever had."
Barn At Racoon Creek

Garden Of The Gods
These two love to travel the world together. Although 2020 has kept them in their home town, it didn't keep Trevor from proposing! After glamping in the Colorado wilderness and taking a sunrise hot air balloon these two got engaged! To celebrate they wanted to take photos at a location that was filled with childhood memories and very dear to them!
