Work with me

Let's transform your love into a timeless work of art.

My approach blends professionalism with a warm and friendly touch, ensuring that you not only look your best but feel completely relaxed and natural in front of my camera.

With a passionate eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to capturing the most tender, romantic moments, I'm dedicated to creating images that transport you back to the pure emotions, shared laughter, and boundless love that filled your wedding day.

My mission is to do more than simply document your wedding; it's to weave together a visual love story that will forever warm your hearts.


From our first date (client call) to the moment you receive your wedding photos, I'm here to craft an unforgettable experience for you.

Date night?

My couples sessions are for the lovebirds who want photos that feel like you—not some stiff, cheesy prom pose. Whether you’re fresh off a proposal, celebrating an anniversary, or just craving photos that capture your everyday kind of magic, I’ve got you. Think lazy mornings at home, spontaneous adventures, or the best date night you’ve ever had—these sessions are all about celebrating your love at every stage of the journey, messy hair, belly laughs, stolen kisses and all.

Starting at $500

Couples

Did you say adventure? 

My elopement package is perfect for couples who want more than “just married”—you want holy sht, we actually did that!* vibes. Think sunrise vows after a hike, star-gazing portraits, breakfast burritos on the trail, a private chef dinner under the stars, jeep tours through red rock canyons, horseback riding in the mountains, or even scaling a cliff before you say “I do.” If you’re craving adventure, belly laughs, and photos that feel as wild as your love—this is your jam.

Elopements

Starting at $5,000

Let's Party

Micro-weddings are for couples who want the best of both worlds: an unforgettable celebration without the overwhelming guest list. Imagine a full day (or even a weekend) surrounded by no more than 65 of your favorite humans, sharing an Airbnb that feels like a getaway, eating the kind of food worth raving about, and packing in adventures that actually light you up. With the stunning views as your backdrop and your people by your side, I’ll capture every belly laugh, happy tear, and dance move so you can relive the magic long after the cake is gone.

Micro weddings

Once you fill out my inquiry form, we’ll hop on a call to get to know each other. Then we'll look at the custom packages I've prepared for you. If you're ready to move forward with me, I'll place a soft hold on your date for one week so you can review the contract and invoice! Payment plans are not only available, but they're preferred.

The First Date

01

Contract signed + retainer paid = we’re official! From there, you’ll receive client guides + questionnaires tailored to your service so we can start planning your dream day.


Seal the deal

02

Elopement couples get my comprehensive location + sample timelines (including epic spots, travel tips, food, lodging, activities—you name it). For sessions + weddings, we’ll shape a timeline that feels effortless and you as we approach 3 months prior to your date. For clients on a shorter timeline, I have an expedited timeline for that process so don't stress!  



Love story logistics

03

I’ll check in throughout the process to help with planning—whether that’s helping elopement couples narrow down the “where” and “how,” or giving guidance on first looks, family photos, or how much time to block for each part of the day. You’ll also get access to my go-to vendor recs so your dream team is stacked and stress levels stay low.

04

Your only job? Soak it all in. I’ll wrangle the humans, keep things flowing, and make sure your wants + needs are protected - all while turning every belly laugh, stolen kiss, and epic dance move into art you’ll relive forever.


the big day

05

Sneak peeks land in your inbox within 72 hours—because I can never wait to share the highlights. Full galleries are delivered in 6–8 weeks (8–10 during peak season), with sessions delivered in 2–4 weeks. If you’ve ordered an album, you’ll get a link within a week of gallery delivery to book your design session and bring it to life.

love notes

Dan & Sarah

What else can I say except "WOW!" Working with Chey was fantastic. Everything from communication, coordination, day of experience, editing, etc. felt like Cheyene and her 2nd shooter Lindsey went above and beyond. Cheyene made sure that my groom and I felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. She did a phenomenal job of capturing candids, intimate moments, and, of course, those big family shots. After the big day I still knew I was in good hands because of the attention to detail put in to the editing of each photo. I cannot recommend Wild Side Collective enough!

"What else can i say except wow!"

Luc & Brenna

Absolutely amazing experience. Our photos came out perfect and could not have been a better person to work with to capture such an important time. Chey was friendly and patient, she posed us perfectly in the photos despite the weather they turned out better than we could've imagined! We cannot recommend Chey enough!

“We honestly couldn't have picked a better photographer!”

Christina & Joel

Chey is AMAZING in all the ways, but especially in photography. She will always make you feel comfortable and confident! She is great at giving posing options and captured you in a way you didn't know you needed. If you are looking for a fun, kind, engaging, talented and knowledgeable photographer, Chey is your girl! You might even get lucky and make a life long friend as well! 

“She will always make you feel comfortable and confident!”

Riley & Janee

Chey did an excellent job with our engagement and micro wedding photos! She was excellent at learning people's names and roles and rolling with the punches when things didn't go as planned. It was pouring down rain on our wedding day and she was able to make it work and the few quick pictures we got outside while it was only sprinkling were some of our favorites from the day! She was quick at moving through the obligatory family pictures so it didn't feel just like a photoshoot. And to top it all off she provided a sneak peek the very next day!

"She made sure everything went off without a hitch!"

Ana + Connor

The one stand-out detail from our shoot with Chey: She came PREPARED. She had previously scouted the location to make sure it fit our vision, had posing prompts to make us not feel awkward, pivoted seamlessly whenever we hit wardrobe malfunctions, brought supplies and snacks just in case, and so much more. And it all resulted in magical experience and stunning images that we will treasure forever. Chey is an absolute joy of a human, a phenomenal photographer, and low-key a magician. Thank you, Chey!!

"She came prepared."

Reilly & Megan

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who captures not just moments, but emotions, Cheyene is your go-to. From the first consultation to the final album delivery, her professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were exceptional. She made sure to get to know us as a couple, which really showed in how she captured our personalities and the essence of our day.

On the wedding day itself, Cheyene was incredibly calm and organized, which helped to keep everything running smoothly. She was unobtrusive yet always in the perfect place at the perfect time to get those candid, magical shots that make you relive the moment every time you look at them.

"She was unobtrusive yet always in the perfect place at the perfect time."

Aemelia - Owner of Colorado Event Co.

I worked with Chey for a styled shoot and she was beyond even my high expectations. She was so patient, so encouraging, and so detail oriented. I could not have asked for more. She was so intuitive about posing, lighting, space, EVERYTHING. You cannot go wrong

"I could not have asked for more."

Kaye & Tyran

I got my previews from Chey right away and knew I was going to LOVE her gallery. Chey is an amazing person and being a wildly talented photographer is just a bonus. She also isn’t scared to get down and dirty and step on a cactus and get it through the boot to get the shot. That’s dedication people and the kind of Photographer you want. I highly recommend Chey and will refer her to all of my clients and friends around Denver!

"She isn't scared to get down and dirty to get the shot."

A micro wedding typically includes 15-60 people. Elopements include 15 people or less and can range from saying, “I do,” at the courthouse followed by a nice dinner, to hiking up a mountain top and self solemnizing followed by some rock climbing, a helicopter tour, or star gazing. Take your pick. Mash the two together and you get a hybrid, the best of both worlds if you will.

This ranges by month. Typically September and October are my busiest months so if you’re leaning towards a fall celebration, at least 6-9+ months is ideal to start reaching out. That being said, I do take on couples with as little notice as two weeks for you cuties that are feeling spontaneous!




Absolutely. For elopements, I help with all the planning and  create extensive location guides tailored to your wants + needs, then help you narrow down the perfect backdrop. Planning a micro wedding? While I'm not a micro wedding planner, I’ll absolutely connect you with trusted venues + vendors from my network so your day feels effortlessly you.

Umm…My passport is ready, bags are packed, just tell me when.  Whether it’s sandy beaches, bustling cities, desert canyons, or mountaintop “I do’s,” I’m down to capture your love wherever it takes you. The best part? Any travel fees are already rolled into my custom packages—so there won't be any awkward surprises later. 

This one depends. While I’ll never encourage trudging out into dangerous inclement weather, I won’t shy away from a little wind, rain, or snow. If you’re planning to elope in the back country and will require backpacking, camping, etc., with crazy storms being projected, I may say let’s do a rain check. Safety first always! BUT sometimes that windswept hair or moody landscapes are a DREAM! Don’t be afraid to dance in the rain, you may just get your own Nicholas Sparks book cover out of the deal.
