You are carefully planning each part of your wedding day with intention, not because you want it to be perfect, but because you know this is the start of something sacred—you see marriage as a gift, something to be grateful for and cherish each and every day. You are thinking of your loved ones as you prepare for your wedding, because you know true love thrives most in community. When you look back at your digital and film wedding photos, you want the heartfelt meaning of the day to come back all over again as you recall the events of the day. You'll see the way your spouse looks at you and your heart will swell with love all over again for the person you married, the greatest gift.
You want a photographer who knows when to step in and when to step back and let a moment breathe, a photographer who will put you at ease. You are looking for a photographer who has an eye for detail and documents beauty and relationship masterfully. I would consider it an honor to photograph the very first day in your marriage story, and you can trust me to capture the beauty and joy of the entire day.
I seek out beauty and I love to create it with my camera. Some of the most poignant beauty in this life is found in relationship. I have an eye for noticing organic interactions throughout your wedding day or session: looks of love, belly laughs, tears of joy. I photograph a mix of classic imagery, gently guided poses, and genuine candid moments on both digital and film.
I am based in Colorado Springs, but I consider myself a Colorado wedding photographer since I photograph weddings all over the state. Getting married in another state? Please still inquire- I love to travel!
Abby has such a warm presence that only adds to her ability to be professional and truly make your vision of your photos come to life! We had very specific criteria when it came to our locations and photos. Abby was able to accommodate it all, while helping us feel at ease. She truly added to this perfect day!
Abby is a wonderful photographer! She is down to earth, kind and puts you right at ease. My fiancé and I both were impressed with her. She encouraged us to lighten up and gave some helpful tips. I would highly recommend using her to document your engagement session or wedding!
Abby is incredibly talented and very professional! She has amazing communication and is super easy to work with! Our engagement photoshoot and our wedding photos were beyond what we had hoped for. Abby brings such a fun energy and makes the entire experience fun and stress-free.
Abby is professional, kind and attune to details while also relaxed, calm and easy going -- an excellent balance. Her presence is friendly and calming, and every couple could use a calming presence on their wedding day.
I sure do! I'm based in Colorado Springs but I travel all over the state with modest travel fees and I am also open to traveling out of state if it works with my schedule. Reasonable fees for flights/lodging will be added to whichever package you choose.
Within one month of your wedding date, you will have your full gallery! Editing takes time, but I don't like to make my clients wait too long to relive their day. Depending on my schedule, I may even deliver your photos earlier than expected. Rest assured, I will do what I can to get your beautifully edited photos to you as soon as possible.
Generally I will deliver between 75-100 fully edited photos per hour of coverage on a wedding day. I give you all the best photos of each part of your day, editing each photograph with care. All my packages now include film coverage as well and you'll receive all the good film photos I take on your day.
First and foremost, the day is about you and your partner celebrating the first day of the rest of your lives together. I never want to take away from that by interrupting a meaningful moment, rushing you through the timeline, or adding any stress whatsoever. I will be there for all the moments you desire to have captured and make myself scarce when you want a moment to yourselves. Ultimately I am there to serve you, capturing beautiful photos for you to cherish.
Yes! To secure your date and officially book me, I ask for a $1000 retainer. The remainder is due one month before your wedding date, but if you'd like to pay in smaller installments over time that is just fine. If the retainer amount is a hardship for you please don't hesitate to ask for an alternative payment plan!
Certainly! Once you inquire, I will send you an email with links to full wedding galleries. Looking through those is a great way to see the scope of photos you will receive from your wedding day.
In addition to wedding photography, I also offer engagement, family, and individual portraits. All the relationships, all the love!
