Day After Wedding Sessions: Capturing Your Love in Colorado’s Most Stunning Locations

As a Colorado wedding photographer, I believe your wedding day should be about soaking in every moment with the people you love most. But what if you could also capture breathtaking photos in iconic Colorado locations—like Rocky Mountain National Park—without feeling rushed or sacrificing time with your guests? That’s where “day after” sessions come in. These sessions let you enjoy your wedding day and still create stunning portraits.

What is a Day After Session?

A day after session is a relaxed photo shoot where couples get back into their wedding attire the day after their wedding. These sessions allow you to capture epic portraits in scenic locations that might be too difficult to reach on your wedding day due to time constraints or logistics.

Colorado offers incredible backdrops, from Rocky Mountain National Park’s peaks to serene meadows and alpine lakes. With so much variety, it’s an ideal choice for these day after sessions.

Why Choose a Day After Session?

Many couples want to spend their wedding day fully present with their loved ones while still dreaming of stunning wedding portraits in Colorado’s scenic beauty. A day after session lets you have both.

Benefits of a Day After Session:

• More Time with Guests: Focus on celebrating with friends and family on your wedding day without feeling rushed.
• Dream Locations: Visit remote, breathtaking spots like Rocky Mountain National Park for epic portraits.
• Relaxed Experience: Enjoy a pressure-free session without the constraints of a wedding-day timeline.

Things To Consider:

• If you plan to leave immediately for your honeymoon, a day after session might not be right for you.
• Recreating your wedding-day look may require hiring your hair and makeup artist again, adding to the overall cost.

Hayley & Luke’s Day After Session in Rocky Mountain National Park

I recently photographed Hayley and Luke, a Texas couple who got married in Estes Park. For their session, we visited Rocky Mountain National Park, one of the most iconic wedding and elopement locations in Colorado.

From sweeping mountain vistas to serene alpine meadows, this session was nothing short of magical. Hayley and Luke looked incredible, relaxed, and fully immersed in the Rocky Mountain’s beauty. It was the perfect way to celebrate their love in one of Colorado’s most awe-inspiring settings.
