an Adventure Elopement Photographer in Colorado
Meet Nichole Emerson
Hi, I'm Nichole! I’ve been photographing adventurous couples since 2015. I love capturing joyful moments with people in the outdoors. My love for weddings started when a couple friends asked me to photograph their wedding. I was photographing mostly sports and portraits at the time. After I finished their wedding I was instantly hooked! It was so much fun and I loved the images that I was able to create for them.
Since then, I've dedicated myself to capturing couples and their celebrations. I love it! Colorado is such a scenic state with a ton of options for beautiful places to get married or engaged. I feel lucky to live and work here as an adventure elopement photographer in Colorado. When I'm not working, I love to explore the outdoors. Some of my favorite activities are running, rock climbing and backpacking.
Looking for someone to help you find mountain views, alpine lakes, or an aspen forest? You name it, I love adventuring and am here to be a resource to help you make it happen!
Why I work as an adventure elopement photographer in Colorado
Adventures in nature have always brought balance and value to my life and I believe that love is awesome!
So when I get to combine the beauty of Colorado with that emotion and connection that love stories bring, it's my absolute favorite!!
Getting outside gives me a sense of peace and often makes me feel humble and in awe of the world around me. It makes me slow down, breathe deep and puts a smile on my face.
I want to help others experience that and do it in a way that celebrates and captures their love story as well.

Fun Facts
Bishop CA is one of my favorite places to visit
A dozen trees are planted for every couple photographed
I support every couple's right to marry regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, or religion.
Working to make sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera is super important to me so that we can create photos that look and feel like you.
Being able to enjoy wild places means also protecting them so we can continue to work and play there. I follow Leave No Trace principles and plant a dozen trees for every couple I photograph through a partnership with One Tree Planted.
I love helping others and strive to offer support to the couples I work with at every turn. I'm more than a photographer and can help guide you through things like permits, checklists, vendor recommendations and more!

"Nichole was the best photographer we could have asked for! We are from out of state and she was so helpful in the planning process. She suggested lots of beautiful locations for our engagement pictures and our ceremony and even figured out a last minute change in venue due to a road closure. She saved us lots of stress! She was very laid back and made our engagement session so much fun. She did a great job capturing our relationship! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer! Thanks again, Nichole!!
