full day weekend packages start at $4k for 6 hours

weekday weddings get hourly rates instead of a flat package. engagement sessions come free with any wedding package, and if you book a standalone engagement session first that fee gets deducted from your wedding deposit later. travel is billed at cost (hotel, airfare, rental car reimbursed) plus a flat per-mile gas charge on long drives. her FAQ puts what clients usually spend at $3,000-$7,000 for photo once add-ons are in. she usually shoots solo with an assistant, a second shooter is an added cost.

ok so this one does photo AND video which is nice if you don't want to hire two separate people. she's based in durango but her site name-checks telluride and ouray for elopements too and her FAQ says she'll travel anywhere, worldwide. a review said she never made them feel rushed or like they were getting a contract shoved at them (shade at a previous photographer they'd talked to lol), and multiple reviewers said she helped with day-of logistics beyond just showing up with a camera. reviews keep mentioning candid, unstaged moments. seems like a good option if you want someone more hands-on than just 'shows up, shoots, leaves.' Turnaround on galleries runs about four weeks.
