Be The Xperience

Be The Xperience Our style in photography can easily be described as creative photojournalism.

Aspen/Snowmass based elopement photographer & videographer for adventurous couples who want unique, activity filled day in the mountains, because how you get married matters. While capturing you in your element, we strive to take photographs that are memorable, evoke emotions, and are simply different. It is the journalistic documentation that we strive to achieve, while at the same time capturing

the experience in a way as if we were on the other side of the camera. We specialize in event + lifestyle photography; whether it's a music festival, a wedding, or a corporate event, we put our creative touch on everything we point our camera at. Coming from a photography background, we've found a way to translate photographs into moving images. We are documentarians and storytellers, and your video will be a direct product of this.

As a photographer, I can’t recommend sunrise at Maroon Bells enough for an elopement. 🌄✨ The stillness, the soft light, and the majestic peaks bathed in warm hues—there’s nothing like it. The best part? No crowds! It’s just you, your love, and the breathtaking scenery.

Pro tip: Arriving early not only gives you privacy but also the most magical light for your photos.

Marisa & Shaun said ‘I do’ in the most breathtaking way—on top of a snow-covered mountain with Highland Bowl as their stunning backdrop, surrounded by their closest family. They ended their magical day celebrating at the historic Hotel Jerome.

Planning an engagement session in Colorado? Take a cue from Danielle and Blake—be ready for a little adventure! 🥾 Their 5-mile hike led to breathtaking views of Capitol Peak and golden aspens, creating a one-of-a-kind backdrop for their photos.

Sometimes the most intimate moments are the subtle ones—your hands intertwined, a soft touch on your partner’s cheek, a stolen kiss.

Don’t worry about ‘big’ moments. Some of the most beautiful portraits come from the quiet, tender moments that happen when you’re focused on each other, not the camera. I’ll be ready to capture those details that tell your story.

As I set off on another adventure to the Bottom of the Earth, here’s a little throwback to one of the most surreal and epic elopements I’ve ever captured.✨

Happy 1st anniversary Stacey and Mike!🤍

Why go big when you can make it intimate?✨ An intimate ceremony lets you focus on what truly matters: love, connection, and the people closest to you. With fewer guests, every detail becomes more meaningful, creating an unforgettable experience that’s uniquely yours.

Happy anniversary Jenny and Billy!❤️

4 reasons why you should do engagement photos: 1. No one is used to posing in front of the camera. This is a great way for you to get more comfortable and to meet your photographer! 2. You will learn which poses you like and don’t like. That way when the wedding day comes, you know exactly which photos you want! 3. It’s a great way to explore a new place that you wouldn’t be able to access on your wedding day! Top of the mountain, fun activity, opportunities are endless! 4. Include your pup! This is the space where you don’t have to worry about them and they will provide entertainment for the photos 😁 Can you think of some other reasons why engagement photos are a great idea?
