What started out as a meet cute of these two working at a library and going on a walk together ended up in a beautiful Summer elopement in Boulder Colorado on Flagstaff Mountain! With elopements becoming more and more popular in Boulder, especially at places along Flagstaff Mountain we hit the drawing board to find a perfect place that would be perfect for these two to tie the knot with just a few of their close family members! We settled on this gorgeous overlook off of a hiking trail that had mountain views similar to lost gulch without having to deal with the crowds or wake up before the sunrise to have the feeling of an intimate elopement.
Paeleena and Kelly truly got married on the mountainside and it felt like we were the only ones there, it was perfect! After their elopement ceremony we explored some other hiking trails along Flagstaff Mountain near Sunrise Amphitheater and took their bride and groom photos with the gorgeous sunset. We, of course, grabbed an obligatory mask photo because what a memory to have when you get married during a pandemic! It makes me so happy that so many couples leaned in to the fact that love is never cancelled and still moved forward with an intimate celebration to marry their forever person.
Paeleena left me the sweetest most glowing review after her summer elopement in Boulder Colorado and this is totally a humble brag, but it gives me all the warm and fuzzies so I want to share it with you all too!
“We absolutely loved having Sharee as our photographer. When we were first looking for an elopement package I was worried it would be difficult to get quality photos. Once I saw Sharee’s website and photo gallery I was blown away and wanted to hire her immediately. Her website made me feel like I knew her and made me feel like I would be comfortable around her. Before I even met her in person I could tell she was filled with love and kindness. Before the ceremony she kept in touch with us and made sure she really knew what we wanted. On the day of the ceremony she met our every expectation. The photos were more than I ever could have hoped for. She even texted some to us like two days after the ceremony. It wasn’t even a month after the wedding by the time she sent us the rest of the photos. Instead of the 50 we were promised she sent us 200!!!!! I feel beyond grateful that she was our photographer. Sharee loves what she does and you can really see that when working with her and through her photos.”
