Colorado WEDDING
photographer
Say 'i do' Where the mountains touch the Sky.
Colorado has a way of making everything else fade away. The mountains feel massive and grounding, yet peaceful — reminding you how small the noise gets when you’re surrounded by something so big and beautiful.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding or elopement surrounded by natural beauty – something intentional, peaceful, and deeply personal — you’re in the right place. Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a heartfelt mountain wedding, Colorado offers the space to slow down, breathe, and truly be present.
As your Colorado wedding photographer, I’m here to help you choose the perfect setting, plan around the seasons, and create a day that feels effortless and true to you — so your surroundings become part of your story, not just the backdrop.
COLORADO WEDDING photographer
Hi, I'm Meg!! Colorado is extra special to me because I actually got married here in 2020 and it was the most magical day of my life. That experience deeply shaped the way I see wedding days – slower, more present, and centered on connection over expectation.
Over the years, I’ve photographed weddings and elopements all across Colorado — from Colorado’s National Parks to its sweet mountain towns like Durango, Breckenridge, and Vail. I’ve experienced this state in every season and know how quickly conditions, light, and logistics can change, which means you’ll have a Colorado wedding photographer by your side who knows how to adapt and guide you with confidence.
Colorado is one of my favorite places on earth to photograph love. It never feels repetitive, and it always brings something special to the day — whether that’s quiet moments, big emotion, or landscapes that take your breath away.

My Philosophy & Vision
Your MEMORIES matter more to me than perfect photos.
I believe your wedding day should feel like an extension of who you are — wild, intentional, and full of meaning. Not something that checks boxes or follows outdated traditions, but an experience that reflects your story and everything you love most.
Whether that means hiking to a mountain overlook at sunrise, sharing vows beneath towering peaks, or celebrating with your favorite people in one of Colorado’s breathtaking landscapes, I’m here to help bring it to life. I’ll guide you through every step, from choosing the perfect location to creating a stress-free timeline that lets you actually enjoy your day. Traditions are meant to be made, not followed, so let’s design a Colorado wedding that feels completely, unapologetically yours.
Your MEMORIES matter more to me than perfect photos.

“Meg Layman is one of the kindest and most genuine souls I've ever worked with, AND her photography is out of this world. The first time I found Meg was on social media. I went looking through her website and fell in love with her story and her photography. I was lucky enough to hire her for my wedding in Durango, Colorado. She was so sweet from the first time we contacted via email. She was so thorough throughout the entire process making sure we captured the right moments on our special day. Meg made it super fun and easy to photograph with her. Everything seemed so easy and we really LOVED every single photo she delivered. I would recommend Meg over and over again and I hope that we have another event she can come to! Thank you, Meg!!!”
