The Paul Family | Salida Colorado Photographer

I. Love. This. Family! Seriously, I can’t tell you enough how much I love this family. When we bought our first home in Conifer, Colorado in 2013, we had no idea we were going to make some of our best friends during that move. I was scared moving to the mountains, but quickly fell in love with life at 9,000 feet and the neighbors surrounding us: including the Paul family. These guys are the parents you look up to and the kids you hope to have one day. Needless to say, when we made the move earlier this year to our ranch, leaving them was one of the hardest parts of the move. However, our friendships have only gotten closer and stronger!

Kaiya, who is one of the sweetest girls we’ve ever met, has a passion for anything crafty and a newfound love for photography (melts my heart). We had a blast running around the ranch taking photos of family members and the pups while they were visiting us this fall. In the last couple of years, Cameron has developed a serious love for dirt biking (making Mike super excited to have another buddy to ride with) and was able to bring his bike out to the ranch. Mike taught him how to pop a wheelie and he was off like a rocket for hours riding around the property! Quade and Emi have one of the strongest marriages we’ve witnessed in our friends and it’s truly an honor to watching them parent (and take lots of notes)! We can’t say enough about this amazing family and are so glad that we met them! Love you guys!

“We knew our photos were going to be something we would treasure forever, but what we didn’t expect to walk away with was an effortless bond turned friendship.

Taylor and Mike are not just invested in capturing the magic of the wedding day, but their heart is in it for the marriage and future that follows.”

-Brett & Mendy

I did not feel rushed or anxious, just simply in the moment—which was most important as this would be a once in a lifetime experience—and believe me, Taylor and Mike made it memorable. Separately they are an absolute delight, and together they make the ultimate team and genuine couple. You can see the true dedication they put into making that day, your day…special! It was an absolute joy to work with this inspirational couple."

"With grace and charm, Taylor and Mike set the tone for our beautiful wedding day!

-Jake & Christina

They did everything we asked and more. Our friends and family keep remarking how great our photographers were. They took so many photos and delivered them in such a fast turnaround."

"Taylor and Mike are professional, friendly, detailed, flexible, committed—exactly the kind of presence you want from photographers on your wedding day! 

-Chris & Kim

On the day, they were so organized and kept things moving at a perfect pace. We never felt rushed yet were able to adhere to our timeline perfectly. They made everyone, including my generally camera-shy husband, feel at ease making for photos with real smiles."

"From start to finish, Taylor and Mike take great care to make sure you are comfortable and have clear and prompt communication. 

-Jake & Haydn

We are so impressed with not only them as people and their amazing work, but also their communication skills throughout the entire planning process."

"Taylor and Mike have a great ability to take photographs in places no ordinary person would ever think of, and, while still focusing on you, they are also able to capture the beautiful scenery.

-Adam & Sydney

Though we had never met, it was as though we were life-long friends and it was immediately apparent we wanted to work with them. They are so pleasant, personable, and go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and relaxed. We were so worried the photo process would be weird and awkward, but they made it one of the most fun aspects of the whole day. To top it all off, the photos are simply gorgeous!"

“We gave them a call and they were the first, and only, photographers we spoke with.
