Because love was never meant to fit inside a box …. or a ballroom
Colorado + Western U.S.
Elopement + Microwedding photography + Planning
For couples who prefer ridgelines over rules and freedom over formality.
I plan and photograph elopements and intimate weddings in Colorado, Utah, and throughout the Wild West.
You don’t want a perfect wedding day.
You want a real one.
Meet your COlorado Elopement Photographer
Hey! I’m Jen Dz!
I plan and photograph elopements in Colorado and beyond so that you can have YOUR dream wedding day, regardless of what that looks like to anyone else!
I’m a stereotypical Coloradan to an embarrassing degree. I’m obsessed with dogs, the outdoors, hoppy IPAs and spending as much time in the mountains as possible with my dogs, my family, and our trusty camper van named Patricia.
As one of the O.G. elopement photographers, over the last ten years I’ve learned a thing or two about how to plan an unforgettable experience for a day beyond your wildest dreams.
“Where do I even begin to describe the incredible experience we had with Jen in Colorado?”

what i offer:
Colorado elopements
My bread and butter! I followed my obsession with the mountains to Colorado way back in 2007 and have been living, working, and playing here ever since. I know these mountains like the back of my hand and can’t wait to take you to some of my favorite places!
Colorado microweddings
Microweddings combine the best of both worlds! You get to have a low-key, elopement-style experience while also celebrating with your friends and family. I love putting together all the pieces that make for a perfect day for everyone!
Western U.S. Elopements
While Colorado is my home and the place I know best, few things get my creativity flowing like planning and photographing elopements in different types of landscapes. I’m especially obsessed with the Utah desert and the mountains, rainforests, and rugged coastlines of the PNW. I’ll follow you wherever your love takes you!
“We will be talking about our wonderful experience with Jen forever! She made our adventure elopement wedding dreams come to life!”

my time-tested method crafting epic destination elopements:
here’s how it works:
Step 1:
We hop on a call so I can learn all about the two of you and your dream for your day
We’ll get to know each other and chat about your relationship and the landscapes and vibes that fit your vision for your day (if you have one – it’s ok if you don’t! That’s what I’m here for!). I’ll use this info to help you choose your perfect location whether that’s here in Colorado or somewhere else on this beautiful planet.
Step 2:
Custom crafted elopement planning from start to finish
From suggesting local vendors to coming up with activity ideas to making sure you have the time and space to really experience your day, I’m here to help you every step of the way.
Step 3:
You have the BEST day ever (and i’ll be there to capture every moment)
The big day is finally here! We’ll spend the day in beautiful places, savoring every moment, and taking beautiful photos along the way. I’ll make sure things go smoothly and give you plenty of time to enjoy your day without rush. This day is going to fly by like a big, beautiful dream and you’re going to love every second of it!
Step 4:
gallery delivery + Album design
All good things must come to an end, but don’t worry – you’ll get to relive this adventure forever! Following your elopement you’ll receive a stunning gallery of beautiful photos that are yours to keep forever. You’ll also have the opportunity to order a handcrafted, museum-quality album, custom designed by me just for you.
dogs always welcome
As proud crazy dog lady, I’m always stoked when my couples choose to bring their furry friends to their elopement. Dogs are always welcome!
