Destinations

Colorado is gorgeous —and you may still dream of a beach wedding, European castle wedding, or exotic rainforest wedding. Maybe you live in Colorado but want to get married closer to family but still in the US. Problem is, securing vendors in far away places can be tricky. It can also be a roll of the dice on if the cultural norms of photo coverage match what you’re looking for. If you’re a Colorado local and want to have the comfort of knowing your photographer’s style and the peace of mind that after the wedding, local follow up will be a lot easier, then consider hiring Lovesome Photography to photograph your destination wedding!

How it works

Pricing destination weddings before hearing what the details of your plans are is basically impossible. Let’s get on the phone, hop on a Zoom, or meet up for coffee or happy hour to talk about your plans. We’ll talk over key points like: location, size, duration, if you have pre or post wedding activities you want to have documented as well, and what you would like as final deliverables (digital images, albums, wall art, etc.).

After we get the main details squared away, we’ll talk budget. (Don’t be afraid of this part!) It is very possible to get coverage for a similar/marginally more cost than staying local. If you want us there for multiple days and multiple events we can look at a “bulk” discount. The bottom line is we will do all we can to come in within budget for you.

With destination weddings and events, we become an integral planning partner with you. Together, we’ll document your once-in-a-lifetime, oh-totally-so-you wedding in a way that honors what you are planning and celebrating.

Locations

We’re down to go anywhere! (Anyone want to do an Antarctica wedding? Please?! How about Greece—anyone? Or someplace like Argentina? My bags are packed!) So far our photography has taken us to Canada, Mexico, Aruba, Puerto Rico, Belize, India, South Africa, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Croatia. For those looking to go closer to home or family, we’re also well traveled for weddings within the US, too! We’ve photographed in DC, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and more! The theme is: “have camera, will travel” so don’t hesitate to suggest a spot!
