Colorado Elopement Photographer

Colorado elopement photographer

Mountains, golden aspens, and just the two of you.

I'm Delani McKee, a film and digital photographer available across Colorado — Boulder, Denver, Fort Collins and Vail. Elopements are my favorite way to photograph a wedding: no rush, no crowd, just your vows in a place that feels like you.

I photograph elopements on both 35mm film and digital, in a documentary style that follows your day as it happens. Elopements are custom quoted around your date, location and hours of coverage.

Planning

Where Colorado couples elope

Colorado has endless options. A few places couples ask about most:

  • Boulder & the Flatirons

    Chautauqua's meadows below the rock faces

  • Rocky Mountain National Park

    alpine lakes and big views

  • Vail Valley

    aspen groves and high meadows

  • Red Rocks area

    red sandstone near Denver

  • Horsetooth Reservoir

    water and foothills by Fort Collins

  • A private cabin or ranch

    quiet, flexible and all yours

Many Colorado parks and public lands require a permit for ceremonies or professional photos. We'll confirm what your location needs while we plan.
