Colorado wedding photographer
I work with badass offbeat couples that ache for something more true to them than the traditional ideas the wedding industry has for them. couples who would rather experience RAW EMOTION AND HONEST IMAGERY. couples who want to get married seeking a day full of teary-eyes, wind-blown hair, and TRUE intimate moments, WITHOUT A SINGLE REQUIREMENT TO PERFORM, or TO "POSE" THROUGH THIS DAY. Your wedding day is a deep and vulnerable commitment, and deserves to be captured with TRUE intention and a careful story-telling eye, so you never have to look back on these memories and say, "damn, i wish that day would have felt more like us."
I CELEBRATE ALL HUMANS AND EVERY FORM OF LOVE. YOU ARE WANTED AND SUPPORTED HERE, NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE, WHO YOU LOVE, YOUR HIKING OR FITNESS LEVEL or experience, LEVEL OF TRENDY "STYLE", OR MARIO KART PLAYING ABILITY (OK MIGHT JUDGE YOU ON THIS ONE, A LITTLE). IF YOU'VE EVER FELT LIKE AN OUTSIDER, YOU BELONG HERE.
I’M STEPH (SHE/HER), A COLORADO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER SPECIALIZING IN ALTERNATIVE WEDDING AND ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE OFFBEAT, NERDY, NON-TRADITIONAL COUPLE THAT DARES TO BE THEMSELVES. BECAUSE YOU DESERVE AN EXPERIENCE BETTER THAN A FEW POSED PHOTOS AND A PRE-WRITTEN-BY-SOCIETY ITINERARY FOR HOW YOU’LL START THE BEST CHAPTER OF YOUR LIVES. I DON'T CARE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE: MOST OF THE WEDDING DAYS I PHOTOGRAPH ARE BACKYARD SHINDIGS, AND THEY'RE FUCKIN' RAD.
BECAUSE THIS ISN'T ABOUT MODELING FOR A MAGAZINE PORTFOLIO. MOST OF MY COUPLES HAVE NEVER BEEN THE LOUDEST IN THE ROOM, AND YOU DESERVE AN EXPERIENCE THAT'S AS INTENTIONAL AS THE WAY YOU'RE PLANNING THIS DAY. YOUR TALE TOLD WITH HEART, FULL OF NONTRADITIONAL, OFFBEAT WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY AS UNIQUE AS YOURSELVES THAT BRINGS YOU RIGHT BACK TO THOSE MOMENTS.

DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE!"

"I can't even begin to tell you how incredible these photos are and how much they mean to us already. At the very least, the day was perfectly captured and immortalized by you — but so much more than that, you gave everything such a feeling of dreamy intimacy and uniqueness that wedding photography rarely gets at. These photos look and feel how memories do when you pull them up in your head, but we'll have them always. We will cherish all of these (and the video!) forever. Thank you for feeling out what was important to us and communicating it through these photos, and capturing so beautifully how we love each other and our loved ones. Thank you so so much. "

"OH MAN, WHERE DO I START. STEPH WAS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM TO WORK WITH. I HAD NO IDEA HOW TO EVEN START PLANNING, BUT KNEW I WANTED AN AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER TO CAPTURE OUR DAY. I REACHED OUT TO STEPH ABOUT HER ABOUT HER AVAILABILITY AND IT WAS THE BEST DECISION I'VE EVER MADE! STEPH WAS SO UPBEAT AND FUN TO BE AROUND. MY HUSBAND AND I LAUGHED SO HARD, CRIED A COUPLE HAPPY TEARS, AND MADE THE MOST INCREDIBLE MEMORIES...IT WAS A DREAM.WE ARE SO GRATEFUL."
"From our engagement session in Chicago, to boudoir for just me, to our elopement day in Colorado - LOVED all the experiences and the photos! Steph went above and beyond for us - from picking out spots, making sure we were good with plans, and then having to completely change our plans last minute due to severe storms - we are so grateful to have had her every step of the way! Her personality and talent with her professionalism, really added to our time with her."
JESS + CHRIS | RMNP ELOPEMENT
"Steph was a dream to work with! We absolutely loved her from the very beginning! She was so helpful, so responsive, and genuinely cared about our wedding day! She doesn’t make you feel like you’re just another customer. Her work is amazing and we are in love with all of the photos we have gotten back so far. She went above and beyond and we can’t thank her enough for making our day so special! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to elope, you will not regret it!"
JORDAN + MATT | SAPPHIRE POINT ELOPEMENT
"We absolutely loved working with Steph! She took time to get to know us and make us feel comfortable. Our wedding photography looks beautiful and taking our photos was one of the biggest highlights of our wedding day. Would definitely recommend Hennessy Photo Co, especially for LGBTQ+ & BIPOC folks."
JERIKA & TAYLOR | DENVER BOTANIC GARDEN, INTIMATE WEDDING
"Working with Steph for our elopement was an absolute dream. From the first point of contact, to our regular planning communications, to our actual wedding day Steph was sweet, extremely knowledgeable, and 100% easy to talk to. We were overwhelmed with the amount of locations we had to choose from for our special day and Steph made making that decision an easy one we felt confident in."
