COLORADO ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER
So, you want to marry your best friend in the mountains.
You’ve decided to elope and an epic adventure is the centerpiece of your day. Spending time in nature is already a key part of your relationship and nothing makes more sense than being in the mountains with your boo (and maybe your pup, too… who are we kidding?!) and tying the knot!
You’re crafting the day of your dreams.
It’s intentional. It centers your favorite things. Heck, maybe it’s even in your favorite place, somewhere you already share core memories. It could almost be any old weekend adventure like many you’ve had before…
* almost *
I’m guessing you already know, but take it from me:
There’s no better place to marry your person than beautiful Colorado.
Hey, I’m Makaila!
Colorado has been my home for the last 10 years. (wow, time flies!) and I fall more and more in love with this magnificent state with each passing day. Even before I was lucky enough to call Colorado home, I spent my summers in Eagle County splashing in the rivers, hiking up to snow fields on hot days, and horseback riding through aspen groves. The Rocky Mountains hold some of my most cherished memories, and hopefully yours too!
I know this place well - from it’s paths well traveled to the hidden gems. I know how to plan for Colorado’s signature unpredictable weather, seasonal traffic patterns & closures, how to avoid the crowds, and I would love to help you with your dream day.
Wondering where to start?

Her ideas were refreshing, which set our photos apart from the cookie cutter shoots I've seen in the past. I'm especially happy with how skilled she was capturing the scenery around us while still keeping us as the focal point of the photos.

“Her gorgeous photos and dreamy editing truly speak for themselves, but what really sets Makaila apart is her remarkable eye for capturing the raw emotions and authentic moments of a wedding day.”
