From the Hip Photo

Fantastic duo! Loved the photos from my friends wedding.

Nina and Danny were very attentive to our needs and requirements, the photos turned out to be awesome. The best memories of my life are of my wedding day! The photographs will help us to keep these memories forever. Highly recommend “From the Hip Photo” ! Besides being a fantastic photograper, Nina is also an accomplished , internationally known artist.

Hello everyone !! From Massachusetts to Virginia we can not say enough about the professionalism and fantastic photos that From the Hip Photo did for Robin (our daughter)and our new fabulous son in law John! It was pretty much everyone’s first time to Crested Butte Colorado and this photography pair of Danny and Nina got it right from the beginning! It is a gorgeous setting and they had it right from The start! Quiet, unobtrusive, aware of all the little things! Thank you so much. We highly recommend them for any and all your photography needs. Sara and Michael

Amazing photos capturing a beautiful night.

Some of the best wedding photos I’ve ever seen! And it wasn’t my wedding and I technically wasn’t in the wedding. I may be biased as it is my best friend but I have a couple best friends and they are also married and these photographers take the cake! If I am getting married in an area that they could be my photographers I must say I’d book them. Gorgeous photos, lovely people, amazing night and they captured the memories in a way that takes my breath away.

From the Hip Photo took the photographs for one of my best friend’s wedding. They were INCREDIBLE. To every guest they were personable and kind. They were very helpful and efficient directing each of us to get all the shots the bride and groom wanted. The pictures themselves came out absolutely perfect. I am so happy her day was so beautifully captured!

Nina and Danny were exceptional. They traveled to Crested Butte for our August wedding and captured every single moment from our rehearsal dinner, to the epic first look dance party, our beautiful vortex of a ceremony and our reception with all of our favorite people. We never noticed them which made everything that much more organic. Every single person looked like super models. What an adventure! Thank you so much for capturing one of the best weekends of our life.

Seriously the best - so professional, clear communication, and AWESOME PHOTOS. I can’t stop drooling over them!!!

Nina and Danny are not only superb photographers but just generally really awesome people. My husband and I are in the wedding industry ourselves so we have worked with many talented photographers, many of whom we could have chosen to help us with our wedding photos. But after we saw the pictures from our surprise proposal shoot, we knew for certain that we wanted From the Hip to share our wedding day with us as well. We received our edited pictures back much quicker than we anticipated and we love them all! Currently starred 290 as our favorites which we’ll have to TRY to widdle down to print an album. But it’s just so hard to choose when they’re all great! Thank you so much From the Hip!

The photographers at From the Hip Photo have an amazing ability to capture very candid and real moments. Our photos turned out absolutely perfect and I can’t recommend them enough.

So, I’ve been involved in the wedding industry for a very long time - both as a vendor and as a bridal party member in countless weddings. And I can safely say, having been around tons of photographers, From the Hip Photo is THE BEST. Not only are they fun and spontaneous, they also seem to be everywhere all at once, capturing that fleeting look of pure joy on that one guest’s face that no one else noticed, the perfect photo of the father-daughter dance that makes the whole scene look fairy tale-esque, turning otherwise ‘normal’ moments into works of art with their creative framing. Plus, they listen. They know what you want and they’ll do whatever they can to make it happen. When my sister received her photos after her wedding, she was blown away. I was blown away. From the Hip, run by husband-wife team Danny and Nina, is a magical, uber talented small and mighty company. Book them for your wedding, party, event, have them follow you around with the person you love, and then be prepared to spend hours ogling the photos afterward!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful our experience was with From the Hip. From start to finish they were great and easy to work with. Our engagement and wedding photos turned out absolutely perfect.

There are not enough great things I can say about 'From The Hip Photo.' They're professional, fun, kind, and most importantly they take amazing photos. We had them at our wedding and everything from start to finish was perfect. We loved working with them so much that we've used them multiple times since, they're our go-to photographers! I can't recommend them enough.

We are so thrilled with how our wedding photos turned out! From the Hip did a spectacular job from the engagements photos all the way through to the wedding. They truly captured the wedding day’s beauty and fun energy. Thank you for all these wonderful memories. We are very happy we chose From the Hip. Josie was fantastic!

From the Hip was AMAZING from start to finish. We used Josie for our engagement photos as well as our wedding day, so she already knew us & our personalities which was a huge bonus. The day of, Josie & Lauren were incredible - they got every picture we asked for, they were so attentive to detail, and they were able to capture the most incredible moments. We are beyond thrilled with the way our pictures turned out and I would recommend them to every single bride I know!

Josie was unbelievable and very professional and took amazing pictures in a quick, polite manner and we can't wait to see all of them! She also did Chad and Grace's engagement photos and they are beautiful! We highly recommend working with this great company!

Saying they were the best is an understatement! From the very first phone call we knew how professional they were and committed to capturing anything and everything that mattered to us. Josie was amazing! We had so much fun with her throughout our special day and she truly captured everything we wanted. Our photos turned out amazing and so many! So hard to select from so many good ones. The only down side I would say was having to wait 20 business days to get our photos lol:), but I know photos that great and that many take time. Highly recommend to anyone; i'd definitely use again!

I love when we get the chance to work with From The Hip Photography! I know that I can always count on their team to provide quality customer service and a great end product for our clients. Anytime that we have From The Hip on site with us the day of events, I know that it is going to be a great event day. If you are looking for a fun, creative, and personable group of photographers- Look no further!

FTH's entire team is amazing, spectacular, organized, friendly, super creative, personable, makes anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and down to earth. You will fall in love with all the images they capture for any type of event that you hire them for! Coming from a planners perspective, a photographer can make or break the event so make sure you hire the right ones and that would be FROM THE HIP! Don't second guess it.

LOVE the whole team at From the Hip! Reviewed 30 photographers webpages, narrowed them down to my top 15 for my fiancé to review and we both picked FTH as our favorite photog style! So, imagine how much sweeter life got for us when they not only were available to shoot our wedding photos but were incredibly professional and friendly during all our interactions with their staff. Josie was so patient, we cancelled our engagement shoot with her twice, both times the week of the shoot because of weather concerns. She could not have been more understanding and on the day our engagement shoot actually occurred and the weather still was not cooperating she could not have been more flexible when I decided on a new location an hour before the shoot was supposed to start. After spending that day with her, getting ready for the wedding with her in room was like sharing the chaos with one more girlfriend not just the wedding photographer. At the wedding Ashleigh and Josie made an incredible team. It was entertaining to watch them work, you can tell they love what they do. I could hear all the cameras clicking but both girls were like ninjas so their active presence didn’t distract from the ceremony or reception activities. And, they refused to leave our wedding without knowing we had gotten all the planned pictures we wanted, even when I was worried rounding up all of my cousins would take to long at the end of our session time and I wanted them to be able to go home and enjoy some well-deserved rest. Instead, Josie helped hunt down every one of my cousins at my wedding from my big family so we could get a group picture together and it is one of my family’s favorite memories from the day. If you want beautiful pictures from a professional company whose staff is friendly, passionate, and hardworking then choose From The Hip! I can’t wait for my next excuse to work with their team again!

We used From the Hip Photo for our Engagement and Wedding photos. We loved working with such positive and creative people, our photographer Josie was the absolute best. To me photos are one of the most important pieces to get right for your wedding and From the Hip Photo captured some great memories of our day for us.

We absolutely loved our From the Hip Photo team! They came fully prepared with a plan to get the best possible photos of our wedding and they managed awkward family conflicts with grace. We couldn’t be happier with the finished product and most of all we enjoyed spending time with them on our special day!

I loved the work From the Hip did with my engagement shoot and wedding. For our wedding, Ashleigh and her assistant had amazing energy, kept everyone going, and got everyone moving (when they weren't paying attention). The photos turned out gorgeous, and there are too many to choose from that are the type we wanted- candid, happy, capturing the feeling of the day. If you're thinking about whether or not to do an engagement shoot, DO IT. We had so many nerves doing our engagement shoot (and somehow still had beautiful pictures), but the shoot helped us get comfortable with being in front of the camera, and allowed Ashleigh a chance to get to know us before being a part of our wedding day. From the Hip is worth it. Just do it. You'll be happy.

We loved their kindness and bold photos. What a great team!

When we first visited the from the hip photo studio, we felt welcomed and that we were around total professionalism and kindness. They were such a pleasure and so easy to work with and communicate with. Our big day was amazing! Thanks to Ashleigh our lead photographer who got it done! All of our request were easily taken care of, and we had such an amazing experience! We are still waiting to see our photos, but I’m positive they will be beautiful with Ashleigh’s artistic view and professionalism! We love you from the hip photo! I’d recommend to anyone who wants a super happy and easy experience with wedding photos!!

From the first meeting, everyone at From The Hip was kind, friendly and easy to work with. On the big day, we unfortunately had a medical emergency that affected the timeline of events, but Josie our photographer was flexible and professional. She easily rearranged things so we still got all the photos we wanted, including a first look in front of an amazing Colorado sunset. I would recommend From The Hip to everyone I know!

My experience with Nina with From the Hip was exceptional. She did an outstanding job on our engagement photo shoot (I heard from a lot of people that our photos looked like a picture out of a magazine!); and an amazing job on our wedding up in the mountains even though we had some weather complications. I could not have asked for a better photographer. She was very detail oriented, and full of fun ideas to make our photos totally different than every other wedding photo! She went above and beyond what I had expected from my photographer. she even let us use her phone and offered to buy us food while we were stuck on top of the mountain due to lightning. We were a little hesitant since their pricing was higher than what we wanted to spend on our photography, but it was worth every penny and we were super super happy with the outcome! Many of our guests, including both my and my husband's family came up to me after the wedding and told us how good of a job Nina did at the wedding by being a ninja photographer and capturing every moment.

We recently had Ashleigh and Nina photograph our wedding in the Highlands/Denver a couple weeks ago—we were just so thrilled with the experience and can’t wait to see our beautiful photos. They made us feel comfortable and confident, giving us cues and organizing our wedding party and family quickly and efficiently. They were cognizant of getting our desired shots taken while letting us get the most out of our big day! Everything went so quickly and I wish I could have been in all the places at once—but knowing we’ll have beautiful memories taken by the From The Hip team makes my heart happy.

We loved our experience with From the Hip! The team was exceptionally communicative and worked to get to know us as a couple before the wedding. We had several requests for different shots and moments, and they nailed them all. Our pictures turned out absolutely perfect. Also, everyone on the team is so kind, very fun, and committed to ensuring your day is perfect. We love them!

Words cannot explain how amazing our experience was with From the Hip. They were so easy to work with from the moment we contacted them about being our photographers for our destination wedding. Our engagement pictures were amazing and our wedding pictures were beyond anything that we had imagined. They traveled out to Mexico with us and made the process so easy. I would recommend them to anyone and will definitely be using them for any future pictures we take as a family. We had Nina as our photographer and she was so great and so easy to work with. When I had questions or information to share, they quickly responded. Overall, our experience with From the Hip was perfect and we highly recommend them!!

If I could give more stars I absolutely would!! From the first phone call with Danny we knew that FTH would be our photographers, they were so personable and down to earth! We had a unique situation in that we had our ceremony in Colorado and our reception in NJ. Nina and Danny were able to accommodate our request and we were so happy to have Nina with us for both of our celebrations! The photos were incredible and they were great to work with from start to finish, we couldn't be happier! Highly highly recommend.

I wish there was sixth star I could give Danny and Nina. They helped made planning the wedding fun. Over a beer, no less, we came up with how we wanted the event captured, and the results were exactly what we wanted. We had them shoot both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding, highly recommended, and bring along a photo booth to the wedding. (They staff the "booth" with a photographer to make sure every image is picture-perfect. I still see friends posting their pictures!) And how lovely it was to have them there!

From the hip was great in helping us plan shots for our wedding. On that day, they helped us stay on our timeline and make sure we got all the photos we wanted! The pictures were AMAZING and we have received so many compliments on them. We are so pleased we chose From the Hip!

After doing our engagement shoot with From the Hip, we knew our wedding photos were going to be just as spectacular. For both the engagement session and the wedding, my wife and I were nervous about feeling too staged and cheesy. From the Hip photographers makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the lens, and the photos come out amazing every time! We could not be happier, both with our artsy engagement photos taken in our favorite Denver neighborhood and the pure genius of our wedding photos taken in the foothills. If photos are important to you (as they should be), From the Hip is an easy first (and only) choice!

We absolutely LOVED From the Hip Photo and can't recommend them highly enough. We got married at the Botanic Gardens and had a reception at Moss Denver and they were incredibly easy to work with, familiar with both locations, and made everyone feel comfortable and beautiful the entire day. Our photos turned out beautifully, and they are so unique and fun. Working with Danny to set everything up was easy, relaxing, and enjoyable. They were more expensive than other photographers we looked at, but in the end, I am thrilled we spent the extra money to have these incredible memories of our day.

They were super accommodating and really great. They made everyone feel comfortable and we received our fantastic photos really quickly.

The Best Ever! From The Hip Photo brings professional to a new level. They are truly experts at what they do. Every moment captured speaks 1,000 words of beauty and joy. Exactly what we experienced on our wedding day, and now we have those moments captured in time to go back and relive over and over again. If you want memories that will last a life time, memories that will bring a smile to your face every time you see them, then From the Hip Photo is the right choice for you. No one else can compare to the level of integrity they put into their work.

Communication in the beginning was very good, I did ask once or twice if I could meet with the photographer. It's crucial to have clear communication about what's expected from everyone. Did not receive a clear answer, but was told that if I have any questions or photos that we would like to have our session inpsired by, to let them know. I sent about 4 photos, none of which are close to ours. WHICH IS OKAY, a simple "we may not be able to duplicate these" would have been appreciated. They told us to pick the location and they were happy to book it. We found it on their website. We had a session on a Sunday night, and there were about 20-30 other people there. Being we took the inspiration from their website, one could assume the photographers are well aware that there may be a crowd of people. We would have picked a different location. That was inconsiderate. Our photographer was very nice and friendly and even asked us if we wanted any additional shoots we had in mind after our appointment. It did feel a bit rushed. I understand, It's only an hour. However, I would so much rather have only 10 incredible pictures than tons and tons of posed, awkward pictures. The background was so beautiful. I cried for so long when I saw these pictures were not what I had expected. And I've looked on their website, I had sent pictures so they could at least get a feel what I am looking for, it was just not even close. In my opinion. And so I emailed one of the owners and politely stated, we are not interested in downloading or purchasing any of the photos and asked if we could get a refund. I even thanked them for shooting with us! I received a phone call while at work, and a voicemail from the other owner explaining that she received my email and wanted to touch base. I didn't want to touch base. If I wanted to make fuss or give any feedback I would have called. But I emailed. A simple "Unfortunately Victoria we do not give refunds" email back would have been 10000000% fine. I just wanted to move on. With hesitation, I called back and left a voicemail explaining that I was at work, but am on lunch. Owner calls me back asking for feedback and I explained that it felt rushed and we were just not satisfied with the photos, they seemed posed, and only wanted to know if we could get our money back. She says to me "to be frank, I think they came out really beautiful." I told her thank you and that's great you feel that way but at the end of the day they are not her photos. This went BACK AND FORTH for what felt like 10 minutes. She kept telling me it was her favorite shoot and that she thought I looked really beautiful, again, thanked her for the compliments but we did not feel that way. She asked if they could do additional tweaking, don't know why since my complaint were the poses. She offered a new shoot, she would do it herself, at this point BEYOND not interested. Mentioned they couldn't refund, I said that's okay I just wanted to move on. Eventually I got fed up and told her that her continued opinions on our photos felt like she was trying to make me feel guilty or to agree. She insisted that wasn't the case. Throughout the ENTIRE conversation she laughed. I asked her if she thought this was funny, she said it was "awkward." The most unprofessional conversation ever. Most unpleasant experience. So pushy. So rude.

The whole team was amazing from the start of planning our wedding to the wedding itself! Ashleigh was amazing at bothe sessions we had with her! Such a great company to work with and the pictures are incredible!

They were so easy to work with, they were not intrusive, if we asked for a specific photo, it was done! Beautiful pictures!

Nina and I shared a moment.

As is fairly typical, my lovely (now) wife took on a lot of the planning for our wedding. Though I often do sweat a lot of details, I knew that most wedding details would matter more to her. I was happily a participating passenger rather than the driver for our big day. With most wedding choices she'd present a few options and we would work towards a choice together. Easy peasy. Choosing who would document this day in photographs was an entirely different story. She pointed me to From the Hip's site and let me know she was setting up a meeting. The portfolio was (is) impressive. I had no problem with her choice. The meeting was with Danny. There was a natural click that both put us at ease and made us very eager to work with From the Hip. Each example looked like a model wedding...Except they were real weddings because Danny would talk fondly of the people in each photo they chose to present. Like he was a friend who enjoyed his work. Deal:sealed. Nina photographed our wedding. Nina is great to work with and had all kinds of great ideas. Your wedding is a day when you should feel special. We did that well, and Nina was instrumental in us feeling very VERY cool on top of that. Seriously, rock stars. Nina and Danny have to be the very raddest couple around. In the end all you have are your memories. Nina and Danny captured our day better than we could have ever remembered on our own. They made me want to host more events. And have them all photographed.

From the Hip went above and beyond for our wedding. Not only do our photos look more beautiful than our wildest dreams, but they were also the most helpful and easy to work with team. At any point in the process, they were available for anything from recommending makeup vendors to just generally calming my nerves as a bride. We were so impressed by their balance of professionalism and personality. Absolutely, 100%, don't hesitate to use From the Hip -- DO IT -- you won't be sorry.

Gorgeous, Elegant, Creative, Stunning, Breathtaking... These are just a few of the words used by friends, family, and vendors to describe our wedding photos. You cannot beat the quality or style that From the Hip provides, but more than that, it's their genuine interest, enthusiasm, and care that truly sets them apart. We now use From the Hip for all our photo needs and we couldn't be more thrilled with the relationship we've built with their whole team.

Our wedding photos are beyond amazing! We love each and every photo. Nina took the time to look through sample photos that I loved so we could recreate exactly what I pictured and she took many others that were better than what I had envisioned. She captured everything from the little detail up to the large landscape of our Arrowhead venue. She has the talent and the eye and made us look good! For our engagement photos, we couldn't come to Colorado since we were living in Miami and crazily enough Danny was coming to Miami for another shoot and carved out some time for our engagement shoot. He was very flexible and pleasant to work with and our photos turned out great! When we showed friends and family our photos, they said it looks like a cover of a bridal magazine and we agree. We couldn't believe how well it all turned out. We are extremely glad we went with From the Hip to capture one of the most important days of our lives. We will have priceless beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.

I picked From the Hip and could not have been happier. Since i had a small court wedding i didnt need the whole 4 photogs for 6 hour deal. From the Hip sent one photog who was fabulous to help capture the moments for a a fee that was very reasonable. Would recommend them every time!

As soon as we met Nina and Danny we knew they were the perfect people to capture our wedding. They were attentive, professional, fun, and caught our day exactly as we had hoped! We could not be happier with the outcome!

I loved working with From the HIp Photo. I worked specifically with Nina. She went above and beyond. She answered all my questions, made me feel comfortable and worked with everything I asked for. She took the time to help me think outside the box and really capture the important moments! The pictures are BEAUTIFUL! From the Hip Photo was very professional and fun to spend the day with. It was important to my Husband and I that we didn't spend all day taking pictures. They did a great job making sure we got all the important shots but being quick and efficient so we could spend more time with our guests at the reception. I give them a VERY high recommendation for the quality of work they do. The pictures are beautiful (and I haven't even received the second round of re-touched images yet). We got married downtown Denver and I wanted to capture a very urban feel and look which was accomplished. i HIGHLY recommend From the Hip Photo. -Kelly -Kelly

If I could give more stars, I would! From the beginning, photography was my number 1 priority when it came to wedding budgeting. I scoured the internet, and me and my (new!) husband interviewed many great candidates. From the get go, we knew that From the Hip was our #1 choice. These people just "get it!". Our photographers were Kristin and Katie, and they knocked it out of the park. We were able to do a most cherished at-home engagement shoot prior to the wedding that left me breathless. Even shots that I could have sworn would be less than flattering were just breathtaking, playful, light and tender. The same applies to our wedding photos. They so captured the essence of our fun day, and were even more excited about our quirky details than we were! Communication with our photographers was astounding throughout the whole process, and both Katie and Kristin were respectful, sweet, professional and creative in every encounter along the way. I cannot say enough good things about From the Hip- book them and you won't be sorry!

A family friend of ours suggested that we use From the Hip after they did their wedding. We are so happy we used their suggestion because they were fantastic!! The pictures turned out absolutely beautiful and Nina was amazing to work with! I cannot get enough of the pictures and my friends and family agree!

We just finished looking through the photos from our wedding on October 4th a few days ago and we are blown away! From the Hip did such an amazing job getting creative photos of us all around the Botanic Gardens, as well as capturing moments throughout the day that were really special to us. Their experience is really evident in the photos they captured without me noticing they were even standing there! I couldn't believe it when I saw a photo of my dad's face the first time he saw me in my dress because I didn't even realize they had walked into the room and were photographing. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for great candid, artistic, photography and can't stress the importance of having tangible memories of every moment of our wedding day!

From the Hip is a gem of a company. From the moment we contacted them, they have been great. We were paired with Kristin who has such an easy personality to just let you be yourself. We did the Cherry on Top package and it was totally worth it...it included an hour session which I used as a boudoir session, an engagement session which Kristin drove to where we lived, two photographers for the wedding plus a third photographer for a photobooth. Kristin and Nora made the day of photos so easy and fun and they felt like old friends. They helped scope out a location for First Look photos and made that little session a lot of fun and easing pre-ceremony jitters. The photobooth was such an unexpected hit and the photos look so wonderful. It can be hard to just be photogenic but they gave great directions and made it fun and easy on top of great photography. Our favorite aspect of From the Hip is how authentic the photos look...less posed and stiff. They really work their asses off to capture people how they really are.

FROM THE HIP PHOTO went above and beyond to capture our wedding. They were documenting our day from beginning to end, but they also used their photography to tell the story of our day. They focused on details as well as the big picture. FROM THE HIP PHOTO also brought creative ideas to the table which allowed us to have those fun/off-beat and unique photos. Most importantly, they really gave us a lot of great proofs to choose from, and they went the distance when it came to editing down our top pictures. We can't recommend them enough. Seriously amazing.

Danny and Nina were amazing! From the very start they were very easy to work with and the communication was great! They have a creative eye and their photos are just beautiful. It was so much fun working with them the day of our wedding. They got some amazing shots and were just a pleasure to be around and work with. I cant say enough good things about working with the crew from at the hip! We highly recommend!!!
