The 10 Best Denver Portrait Photographers

Candice’s gorgeous lifestyle photography seems so natural that it occasionally borders on documentary. If you want someone to capture you or your family doing what y’all love to do, Candice should be your go-to family and portrait photographer. You’ll love her classically composed narrative shots, as well as the loving, playful photos she takes.

What sets Meredith apart from the rest of the portrait photographers in Denver is her juxtaposition of dramatic technical elements — deep shadows, subtle uses of asymmetry, clever framing devices, and jaw-dropping backgrounds. She combines these with totally natural poses and interactions to create lifestyle photography with a truly timeless quality.

In fact, her wedding photography work has been featured in Couture Colorado and she’s part of the Rocky Mountain Bride vendor collective. It’s clear that she is not only a joy to work with, but she’s truly inspired by her clients. So while she is bringing out the best in you, you in turn are bringing out the best in her.

Mark Woolcott is a commercial photographer who is clearly living his best life doing what he loves. He’s able to do so much with so little. For example, his headshots show his uncanny ability to tell a whole story with nothing but the look in his subject’s eyes.

He boasts a great skill with people, an ability to exude calm and friendliness. In fact, what makes Mark one of the best portrait photographers in Denver is his authentic, unpretentious approach to creating art.

Kimberly takes glamorous fine-art portraits against gorgeous natural landscapes. Her fingerprints can be seen on every aspect of her photographs, right down to her playful wardrobe selection that alternates between down-home to high fashion, occasionally even crossing right over into dreamy and fantastic.

We appreciate an artist who can both take their work and their subjects seriously, yet never cease to play and experiment, always looking for a new edge to explore. It is this never-ending playfulness that allows her to continually take some of the most memorable portraits around.

Tina from Mile High Captures takes narrative photographs with a fine-art slant. Her photos use lots of light, as well as some light post-production editing in order to bring out the particular artistic effects she’s going for in each shot. Her shots are primarily posed — not candid — and yet they each have a natural look that implies motion.

We’re a huge fan of her usage of the gorgeous landscapes surrounding Denver, which are naturally majestic, bringing out the magic and playfulness of her environment.

Lora and Ted are among the most talented portrait photographers in Denver and are dually based in Kansas City. And they beautifully work together as a team. Every photographer sets out to capture “precious moments,” but few photographers deliver like Lora and Ted. They’re talented photographers that blend both a classical and storytelling style, all while using some of the most incredible natural backgrounds in the entire country. They manage to create light-filled, joyous photographs you’ll treasure for the rest of your life.
