Candid Denver Photography

Would you define your dream Wedding photography style as ‘candid’?

Candid Photography Denver

What is a Candid Photography style?

Candid photography captures true moments of celebration, gathered in a style that feels more like an invitation to celebrate than a formal photoshoot. It is very closely related to Photojournalistic Wedding Photography.

Candid Photography Denver with an artistic edge.

CliftonMarie Photography offers a relaxed, candid and artistic approach to wedding photography in the Denver area and throughout Colorado.

Well lit or dark conditions, our candid and unobtrusive style of photography captures the whole evening as it unfolds. You’ll definitely catch my dance moves while hittin’ that trigger.

Wedding Dancing

CliftonMarie Photography makes sure your wedding day is captured in an organic, artistic manner - from the family groups to the late-night dance-offs. Whether your mom is getting down on the dance floor to 90’s R&B, or your childhood best friend is lip-syncing to the Backstreet Boys, we won’t miss the moment. ‘Candid Photos’ is my middle name!

Engagement Photos

Do Boring Engagement photos make you roll your eyes? Candid Style photographers are for you.

Engagement

CliftonMarie Photography provides detailed, quality candids that highlight whatever makes you special as a couple. We are dedicated to delivering beautiful photos that capture your relationship as it is -- while at the same time helping you create lasting memories. Bring the dogs and your beers from your favorite brewery.

Are you blending two families? Bring the kids! They’re part of the engagement as well! Our engagement photo sessions are more than a quick photo shoot but an event where we want to capture the emotions of your life that matter most.

First Look at Garden of the Gods: CliftonMarie Photography

Maybe you’re planning a Colorado Springs venue wedding but looking for a unique location for an intimate first look on your wedding day between getting ready that morning and your wedding ceremony. Ask your wedding photographer to choose a more secluded location to photograph your first look.

Photo paths and trails Garden of the Gods: CliftonMarie Photography

Photo paths and trails

There are plenty of other panoramic spots to take photos at the Garden of the Gods. I suggest driving the loop through the park while stopping and exploring before choosing a spot. Then, be sure to choose a few back up trails in case your location is extra crowded the day of your shoot. I recommend choosing a Garden of the Gods photographer who is flexible and willing to hop around. Give yourself plenty of time to explore and adventure!

Garden of the Gods Tip from a photographer

Be thoughtful about colors! This may sound strange, but the Garden of the Gods brings a unique color pallet to your wedding photos and engagement photos. I recommend choosing clothing and details that do not clash with your natural surroundings. The sandstone making up rock formations everywhere offer desaturated colors of orange, red and pink. Trees and shrubs then add desaturated green and brown.

Candid and Posed Family Photos with CliftonMarie

Classic Posed Family Photos

In every family photography session, I’m sure to deliver a few classically gorgeous portraits with everyone looking at the camera and smiling- that portrait that Grandma really wants to print! But there's a lot more to your families energy that I will be sure to document.

Funny-Kids-Photos

In between the posed photographs, I'm there to capture the candid family photos. I want to see real life in your pictures! When someone burps and we all burst out laughing, or when your kid looks to you for reassurance. When your children giggle or hug on each other while you’re changing your scarf, I’ll be there to snap that candid moment.
