Choosing Blue Spruce Photography and Videography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Their professionalism and organization kept everything on track, and they managed to capture both the big, unforgettable moments and the little, candid ones that truly reflect our personalities. They made us feel comfortable and allowed us to be ourselves, which shines through beautifully in our photos. Every image is absolutely perfect—amazing, flawless, and full of life. We genuinely smile every time we look at them! We couldn’t be happier with our experience and highly recommend Blue Spruce to anyone looking for photographers and videographers who bring out the best in every moment.
We hired two photographers and two videographers and it was the best decision to have so many angles and people there making sure they captured every moment possible for us to look back on! Beau and Reese and his team are AMAZING!!

I cannot recommend Beau enough for engagement and wedding photography. From the first phone call he was incredibly helpful, informative, and kind. His work speaks for itself and he is in stealth mode during the wedding as he is like batman and not seen. The photos are unbelievable and the color is so true to life without the filters you so commonly see nowadays. Many of my guests commented on his professionalism and were impressed at his ability to capture moments from so many angles only being one person.
After talking to so many photographers, I am so thankful to have chosen Beau to capture our special day.

We knew after speaking with Beau about our vision that he would be the one to carry it out. Beau really understood what was important to us-maximizing our time with friends and family. He helped us be efficient and at ease during all the moments of our special day, while still assuring he got amazing shots of us. Luke, our second photographer was a wonderful addition and we are so grateful for them both. I am still in awe of our pictures, they bring me joy every day. I would absolutely recommend Blue spruce photography if you are looking for professional and talented photographers at your wedding!

Beau and Reese are both incredibly talented and amazing to work with! They did the photography and videography for our wedding and were super communicative leading up to the date, ensuring we had a timeline, plan, and list of must have photos. On the day, they were extremely professional and fun, directed us into some poses that became our favorite photos, captured all of the photos we asked for, and every candid moment we didn’t even know we needed. Being two brides, Beau also had fantastic ideas for our first look and other poses that ensured both of our dresses were visible. We received a sneak peak of our gallery within two weeks, and the photos were absolutely incredible!! The rest of the gallery and video edits were delivered in a timely manner, and were more beautiful than we could have imagined! I cannot recommend Blue Spruce Photography enough to capture all your wedding memories!!

We hired Blue Spruce Photography to photograph our outdoor micro-wedding, and Beau was amazing to work with. Right from the beginning, he talked us through what we wanted, gave us options, and provided a complete timeline for our wedding day. He has photographed a lot of weddings in Colorado, including at our venue (the Boettcher Mansion gazebo on Lookout Mountain), so he knew some incredible spots for photos (including some truly awe-inspiring shots at a beautiful overlook). He was organized and on time and made sure we got all the family portraits we wanted, as well as some really beautiful photos of our ceremony and pre-reception toasts that really captured people's emotions as well as the beauty of the natural landscape. He gave helpful directions during our portraits, and the process was fun. He delivered the photos to us super quickly after the wedding, and we are so happy with them! These photos beautifully capture these special moments and reflect how we felt on our wedding day. Beau went above and beyond for our wedding – you should absolutely book him for yours!

Beau and his team were incredible! They were very organized and maximized every minute of the time we had with them. We had Beau do our engagement and wedding photos and were delighted with the pictures. Beau had great recommendations for locations of shoots, was very communicative, and had a speedy turn around time. I would highly recommend working with this team if you're searching for a wedding photographer.

We hired Blue Spruce for our engagement photos and wedding at Boettcher Mansion and had a wonderful experience all around. Beau is very friendly and easy to work with. He’s also very professional and a highly skilled photographer. He was able to setup a variety of great shots quickly and effortlessly all while keeping things light and fun. He also knows all of the specifics about shooting a wedding at Boettcher Mansion so we highly recommend him for that venue specifically. From candid shots to posed portraits, he captured so many special moments without being distracting or imposing during the event. Reese was our videographer and he was equally professional, skilled, and friendly. All of the video work turned out equally impressive and special. We’ve received so many compliments on their work and can’t recommend them highly enough. Definitely hire Blue Spruce for your engagement session and/or wedding!

I cannot express enough how truly amazing & talented Beau is! From the planning stages to the big day, he was cool calm & collected and made me feel at ease. I fell for his photography about two years before my wedding following his work on Instagram. The carefree and lovely candids were the best! My husband even complimented how easy he was to work with and he doesn’t compliment much! So that’s a huge win in my book! He embraced the sudden snowy wedding day with a great attitude and the gear! Do yourself a favor and hire the best photographer in the Colorado wedding biz!

Beau and Luke did an incredible job with our wedding at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Beau made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and carefully listened to all of our requests and concerns. He is very organized and didn’t miss a single detail.
We love how they captured many candid moments, but also provided direction on positioning as needed. We also got the pictures back very quickly after the wedding and engagement shoot. They were professionally edited and ready to print as is.
We are so happy with the photos—thank you so much!

We had Beau and Reese do photography and videography of our wedding! Even though it was raining we managed to get so many great photos and videos of our wedding day and the clouds and rain just added to the atmosphere of each picture. We enjoyed the mix of photos of planned portraits and fun photos from our reception and ceremony. We really enjoyed working with Beau for our engagement photos as well.

Beau and Reese were absolutely amazing to work with for our September wedding! We had to plan the wedding out of state and Beau was so flexible working with us through different time zones / when we would be able to meet in person. They made the day go so smooth with their professionalism, talent, and help planning before the big day. Our photos and videos were absolutely beautiful and got sent to us much quicker than we expected! We’ve already recommended this team to any friends who are soon to be engaged. Truly can’t say enough positive words about these two!!

Beau is extremely thoughtful, kind, and has a beautiful eye for detail. Beau took the time with me to discuss options within my budget as well as creating some amazing ideas for what we could do with photo and video. I unfortunately was unable to proceed forward with Beau do to my own circumstances. He is just so personalble and a lovely human- so he deserves a review to reflect that.

Beau was even better than we could have hoped for! First off, he is so knowledgeable and has many years of experience in the industry so right off the bat I knew we were in good hands. It was important to me to get some great portraits, but I really wanted to capture the space and our guests and Beau totally understood this. Photos tend to take the bride and groom away from the party and we were very aligned on more party for me and my husband! His shots were incredible - he suggested we shoot in this beautiful wooded spot near our venue and it took my breath away! He got gorgeous family portraits that will last a lifetime, and during the ceremony he was completely hidden. No idea how he got the amazing angles and numbers of photos he did without chalking it up to magic! You will not be disappointed by Beau, we felt cared for and supported during the entire process. On top of it all - we had a sneak peek of our wedding photos TWO days after the wedding and the full album in TWO WEEKS!!!

It was really important for me (the bride) to have a photographer that would do candid photos and Beau not only was amazing at that, but his portfolio of work was so beautiful compared to some of the other photographers we considered. Beau brought his experience in photography and weddings to help us plan and get the best shots on our favorite day. He came with ideas, helped us organize, and scouted some prime spots for our pre-ceremony photos. We are soooo pleased with Beau's talent for capturing all of our favorite moments and the quiet moments we would have missed. I would recommend him to all my friends and family for their weddings.
Thanks so much!!

Working with Beau was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the get-go, Beau was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, from initial inquiries to planning meetings to day-of photos to receiving the wedding album. Since we booked the 1 photographer, 8 hour package, he also offered advice on how to best utilize his services.
On our wedding day, from the moment he arrived to take detail and getting ready photos, Beau was incredibly efficient at prioritizing his time to set-up and take photos. He even brought along his own lighting equipment to ensure proper lighting.
During the ceremony, Beau seamlessly worked in the background of the chapel, capturing all the important shots from various angles. After the ceremony, Beau quickly jumped into action, capturing us signing our marriage license as well as confidently directing and arranging family and friends into pre-determined group photos.
Since he had already spent time scouting the location, he immediately knew where to place us for both group and individual photos. As such, we took a wide variety of shots in a small time frame. He also prioritized our preferences, so we were able to attend part of our cocktail hour. Then, throughout the reception, Beau was always there, ready with the camera, to capture all the important moments (cake cutting, first dance, bouquet toss, etc.).
Beau was incredibly comfortable to work with throughout the day. Neither of us typically like getting our photo taken, but Beau helped us relax and enjoy our special day. He also helped us with poses and stance adjustments to ensure our photos turned our well.
Throughout the day, we were regularly said to each other how much we enjoyed working with Beau. He is truly an expert at his craft - wedding photography. At the end of the night, even our DJ commented that Beau was one of the best wedding photographers he'd ever seen. Book with Beau before someone else does - you won't regret it.

Hiring Beau and his team was the best decision we made! We used him for both photography and videography and loved all our photos and videos. Him and his team blended seamlessly into our wedding day which made all the photos so natural and authentic.
We got so many compliments from our guests about their professionalism at our ceremony and reception as well as compliments on our photo album and highlight reel. He made the meetings leading up to the wedding super easy and clear which made the wedding day run super smoothly. We would recommend Beau and his team to any and everyone!

Beau was phenomenal to work with. We met him as a recommendation from our venue. Upon our first meeting, we were so impressed. He had the exact look we were going for. Beau did our engagement photos and our wedding day. Not to mention, he was very patient with our dogs during these times! He even did an additional shoot when we added a new pup to the family. He caught so many candid moments and helped my husband be comfortable in front of the camera and get so many genuine moments and smiles between us. From start to finish, Beau was patient and understanding. He really listened to what we wanted, such as so many memorable photos with my grandmother. Him and his assistant were great, and we can't recommend him enough.

Beau and his team are just absolutely fantastic. the shooting style of blue spruce was what originally drew my attention and had me reach out and Beau just sealed the deal! he's amazing to work with he is super through with getting all the information and getting to know us before hand and then meet up with us at our walk through to scout locations we wanted. day of him and his team went straight to work in getting some of the detail shots I wanted and getting ready photos. Beau was with the bridal party for getting ready and Reese the videographer went back in forth between both getting ready areas and i can not say enough nice things about the both of them. our second shooter (my husband cant remember his name im so sorry) was just also fantastic the guys just absolutely raved about him and he was great to work with when taking our couples shots. the whole day they were just all in the right places at the right time with the right poses. we got our preview back so quickly that there was like no down time in getting to see our day again and then our full gallery not to long after! the pictures are stunning as they speak for themselves clearly and our video just melts my heart. the only thing I regret (OUR CHOICE) is not doing engagement pictures because Beau did such a great job I would've also loved to have had engagement photos!! thank you for making our day just so great and capturing it just perfectly

Beau was an absolute professional. He was detail oriented and asked questions to make sure we were a good fit. He prepared questions in advance and made sure he had a full list of all of the photo combinations we wanted to best capture our day. His team was mindful of capturing every detail without becoming a distraction. He clearly communicated his timelines for products and delivered everything on time. He helped organize our families for photos and made sure we got every shot on the list and more! Thanks Beau and team for perfectly capturing our day!

We worked with Beau for our engagement shoot in July 2021 and wedding in July 2022. Our engagement shoot was such a great experience - we took photos in Rocky Mountain National Park and Beau knew exactly where to drive around to get amazing pictures. We loved having the photos for our save the date and it was great to take photos before the wedding so we were comfortable being professionally photographed.
Beau and team also did an amazing job day of the wedding. He thoroughly scoped out the venue and knew exactly where he wanted to get different shots. He recommended the location for a first look and sunset picture and both were stunning! We also managed to take most photos before our guests arrived but then only split off for photos when necessary - and the photos we did step away to take were also some of the most beautiful of the night!
We highly recommend Beau and team - and would definitely do the engagement shoot + wedding with 2 photographers again.

Blue Spruce Photography captured beautiful images for our engagement photos and wedding. They worked with us to understand what we wanted and put extra energy into getting pictures of a unique cake topper we got permission from an artist to use for the evening.

We hired Beau for our engagement and wedding photos and both times our photos were absolutely stunning! I really appreciated how thorough he was during our venue walk through so we could create a plan for where our photos would be shot on the day of our wedding, which really put me at ease on a day that can be super stressful. He even helped direct my dad and I when we forgot our route walking down the aisle! He always gave clear instructions so we knew exactly what to do and he has an easy-going demeanor which made my husband and I feel very comfortable and relaxed during both of our sessions, which made our pictures look natural and effortless. Beau also has a strength in taking beautiful and genuine candid photos which are some of my favorite moments from the day.
I'm so thrilled with how our engagement and wedding albums turned out, and would hire him again in a heartbeat. Beau is truly an artist and perfectly captured our special day!

We hired Beau for our fall wedding in October. From the beginning, Beau was professional, attentive, and flexible. He took all the pictures we had specifically requested and so many more! He really has a wonderful talent for capturing the candid and meaningful moments. He was very patient with us and went out of his way to capture the perfect shots. I would recommend him for any photo shoot!

We had a great time working with Beau to capture our wedding in Bailey, CO! He was very easy to work with and detail-oriented so that getting all the photographs we wanted was as stress-free as possible. We also love all the candid shots he took during the reception and the way he highlighted the natural environment at our venue. I would highly recommend Blue Spruce Photography for your wedding!

Beau and his team did the photography and videography for our wedding and we could not have loved them more. We are from out of state and had a destination wedding and the Blue Spruce team helped make the planning in the weeks prior to the wedding and the actual day-of coordination so easy on us. From recommendations of other vendors, to coordinating with our venue to make sure all was well on their end, to helping us stay on track, Beau and his team were the MVP's! During the actual day-of, Beau gave us a final briefing and his team were amazing in capturing all of the perfect moments, both candid and portraits. We got tons of compliments on the photos and videos, and our guests found the links for the photos/videos really convenient. Couldn't recommend Beau enough!

I would highly suggest Blue Spruce Photography in the future!

Thank you again Blue Spruce team- ❤️ Lauren & Renee

Beau was an excellent choice for our wedding photographer. He was organized, on time, easy to work with and took beautiful photos. He was generous with his time and photos offered and incredibly affordable. I would not have wanted any other photographer for our day.

Blue Spruce Photography provided everything we could have dreamt of on our wedding day. Beau is both a true professional and artist. It's one thing to be able to snap great photos, but the real artistry comes from quickly getting to know us and capturing our vision. He did that at our engagement shoot, and took it to the next level at our wedding with his team. After working with Beau, we knew we were going to receive incredible wedding photos, and not only did we get them, but in a very timely manner. His patience, skill, and ability to achieve everything we desired is what defines a consummate professional. Looking back, we cannot imagine better photographers to capture our special day. We couldn't recommend Beau and his amazing team enough!

Beau + Team truly go above and beyond to make every experience a keepsake for their couple. We had the opportunity to collaborate with the team over the course of a few months when we were working on our May 7th ceremony. They took extra precautions due to the pandemic as it was right before everything opened up temporarily before being shut down again.
We filmed our wedding video which they did a fantastic job editing and adding sound recording to. Our photos are a true reflection of who we are and the narrative we want to share with the world. Our video is high-quality and incorporates so many precious memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Thank you Beau and Team for working with us during this time and becoming a part of our story!

We absolutely loved working with Beau. He was highly recommended, not only here on The Knot, but by other photographers as well. From the beginning we were impressed by the professionalism and genuine kindness he showed us. He was perfectly in communication with us before the big day, and on the big day, his transitions were seamless. Though our time-line for the day was off from what we had planned, Beau treated us and our guests with patience and understanding. His photos are so talented! We couldn't be happier, and we will recommend him to anyone who asks. Thank you Beau!

I would highly recommend Blue Spruce photography to everyone. I found Blue Spruce through The Knot and read all the reviews before we hired them for our wedding. Beau was amazing and signficiantly exceeded our expectations, which were pretty high to begin with. He is a very talented photographer, very professional, punctual and fairly priced. He is easy and comfortable to work with and can guide you on what you should be doing as far the poses go. He is very patient and does not rush through the shoot. We got the package that included an engagement shoot, which was a great way to get to know each other and set expectations for the wedding day. We also had second photographer on the wedding day which came with our package and he was also amazing. I highly recommend getting the package with 2 photographers as it makes a huge difference when the bride/broom get ready and you get more photos from different angles during ceremony/wedding. It rained during ceremony on our wedding day but our photos turned out incredible, far exceeding our expectations. Because of the rain we had to move the bridal shoot indoors and Beau was able to adjust quickly and pick out new indoor locations for the shoot. We got hundreds of amazing pictures from engagement shoot to wedding to post wedding photo session. The best part is we didn't have to wait months to get the photos as Beau sent us the "sneak peek" within a week from our wedding day. I am a very picky individual when it comes to photos but we loved the photos so much that I didn't even ask Beau for any touch ups.
I highly recommend Beau and his team to all brides and other special photo shoots, he will not disappoint! We have so many amazing pictures that I just want to print and frame them all! We are definitely going to use Beau for all future special shoots in our lives.

WOW! Loved working with Blue Spruce Photography. I did both the photos and videography and they turned out incredible. One thing I can’t emphasize enough is how fun and easy the team was to work with on the day of the wedding. They read my energy, listened to what we were needed, and delivered incredible photos.
Last, if you are on the edge of getting a video or not, DO IT! The day goes by so quickly and I’m so happy we spent the extra money to watch our day. It was wonderful to share with my grandmother as well since she is not well enough to leave her home. You will not regret it!

Beau is a fantastic photographer and was excellent to work with. He listened to our input and provided suggestions based on his experience. We ended up with both amazing engagement and wedding day photos. He also was very flexible with us throughout the rescheduling process due to COVID. He is incredibly responsive and helpful. You can't go wrong with Beau for your wedding!

Our experience working with Beau was wonderful! From the beginning of the planning process to the day of the wedding and receiving our photos and videos after, he was attentive, responsive, and balanced being professional while also being personal and friendly. He gave great advice for planning the timeline of our wedding day, and he helped us pick and plan our first look location and details, as he knew the Boulder area better, and it definitely shows! He made each formal photoshoot run very smoothly and was able to get each photo grouping we requested quickly and easily. His team of videographers and secondary camera operators was also amazing, capturing each moment with candid photos and videos that perfectly represent our day and guests. The photos and videos turned out great, and he quickly provided far more photos than we were expecting, giving us many amazing options for favorites to share. We have even gotten comments that our first look photos didn't look real with how perfectly the scene and images came out. We would highly recommend Beau and his team, they will definitely help your wedding day run smoothly while capturing each moment along the way!

Beau and his team were absolutely fantastic. It rained on my wedding day which threw our outdoor photo plans for a bit of a loop, but Beau rolled with the punches which helped to keep me from stressing. It cleared up after the ceremony and we were able to get some amazing shots 💓
We could not be more pleased with both the photos and videos. Highly recommend!

Beau’s passion showed to all of our guests. We received multiple comments on how passionate he was during the entire ceremony and reception!
Beau made sure we had fun & were ourselves during the entire process without making anything feel posed.
Excellent communication, kindness, and professionalism during the entire process.
The pictures are an absolute dream!
Thank you!!

I am not quite sure I can accurately describe with words how great Beau was during our elopement. Honestly, from the moment we starting looking for a photographer and I’ll until our wedding - Beau was the absolute best. My husband and I are from Michigan so we had no idea of the area. Beau was helpful right from the start with ideas for potential locations. His attention to detail is unlike anyone that I’ve been able to meet. He is very personable and just has this calming demeanor about him that makes you feel at ease which really anyone can appreciate with how stressful things can be. Beau was able to really cover everything we had envisioned and so much more. Beau is your dream photographer, especially if you are in need of a wedding photographer. Look no further than Beau and his team. His photos are breathtaking and speak for themselves, but actually getting to meet him in person - he and his team are the total package. My husband and I are SO happy we were able to book with him and were just amazed how our day went with him. We wouldn’t be able to thank him enough for our special day and the memories he’s been able to capture for us.

Also, getting married in a sleeveless dress on a mountain in a snowstorm is a boss move! Anxious to go through the photos today and send you over a preview. Enjoy the rest of your trip out here and safe travels home to you and Xander.

Beau and his whole team did an absolutely incredible job! From the very beginning they had outstanding and constant communication and not only proposed wonderful ideas but allowed us to share our ideas as well and express our creativity and thoughts in the photos. The end result was wedding shots that we will never forget and an incredible experience with the whole team at Blue Spruce. They not only worked with us to capture the standard wedding shots but also were there to capture all the candid moments that made our wedding so special, I’m very thankful for those pictures more than anything because it shows the true essence of the day.
