As all weddings are unique, so is my pricing! Jeffrey Scott Photography specializes in weddings, elopements, and engagements. He shoots a mixture of documentary & traditional photography, while finding moments to use stylistic techniques such as direct flash, shutter drag, and motion blur. Editing images, he keeps it true-to-life. However, he incorporates a moody feel by desaturating greens, bringing down the highlights, and adding warm undertones. Jeff is based out of Denver, CO, however loves to travel to whatever location!

Jeff Schmid
Owner/Photographer
I'm Jeff, a passionate photographer of all things from rural Wi. Photography is engrained deep into my core, since I can remember i've had a camera in my hands. Taking pictures of every flower in our front yard and every unsuspecting duck that landed on our family pond. Taking photos has always been my purest form of self expression, understanding, and way of life. For me, photography not only allows me to connect with people and preserve their most cherished moments - it gives me purpose.
Brian Rivera
Photographer
I’m 28 years old and graduated with a Bachelors in Graphic Design but have been a working photographer for 6 years and videographer for 2 years. I started out working in nightlife capturing DJs and clubs which gave me the knowledge and skills I have today. When shooting in nightlife you are shooting in the most harsh and unforgiving conditions for photographers. Little to no light, high pressure, live and unpredictable. You have to not only know your camera and photo principles like the back of your hand, but you have to be able to read a room, understand people’s body language, anticipate a moment and be quick enough to capture it in a creative way.

We hired Jeff as our wedding photographer for our entire wedding weekend in Northern Virginia in September 2025, and we could not have dreamed up a better person for the job. He li...

terally flew in from Colorado to be with us and somehow arrived with the most patient, calm, joyful energy that instantly made our whole family and friend group adore him. Neither of us are big “photo people” or natural posers, but Jeff made us feel so comfortable that we actually had fun taking pictures. He blended into every moment so seamlessly, capturing a ton of authentic, candid memories without ever making the day feel staged or stressful. Looking through our photos feels like reliving our weekend in the best way. Jeff is the kindest, chillest presence to have by your side on such a big day, and he gave us both beautiful images and great vibes. We’re genuinely sad we won’t get to keep working with him, but we recommend him to absolutely anyone. If you want stunning photos and a photographer who feels like a friend, Jeff is your guy.

camera outside of saying cheese - he helped us feel more at ease and guide us through some of the photos. He also offers camcorder footage- you can rent a couple that get passed around by guests. This was absolutely perfect for us since we did not get a videographer. Would 100% recommend him if you're looking for a photographer!

y! After we booked him for our engagement shoot, we immediately saw his talent. My wife sent him her inspiration board, and he did a remarkable job capturing her aesthetic while also adding a timeless quality to the photos. What really stood out was how comfortable he made us feel—his friendly demeanor truly made the experience enjoyable, which is no small feat in front of a camera. By the time our wedding day rolled around, we were excited and confident, knowing Jeff would capture every important moment perfectly. The photos turned out amazing, beautifully reflecting our personalities and style. If you want a photographer who blends professionalism with a laid-back vibe, I can't recommend Jeff enough.

d my inspiration board with Jeff, and not only did he perfectly match the aesthetic, but he also elevated it in a way that felt completely personal to us. He perfectly captured every moment, and we felt so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. By the time our wedding came around, we knew we were in the best hands. Jeff made the entire process so easy, and the final photos were beyond stunning, reflecting our style in every shot. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a photographer who can truly bring your vision to life!

oot with him while we were on vacation, and he made everything so easy for us. The photoshoot itself was fun (when I expected it to be awkward or feel forced) because of Jeff's demeanor and subtle prompting. He captured some great photos of us being ourselves - not too polished or posed. We really liked what we saw on his Instagram and our photos definitely lived up to his portfolio. We are super happy we found him and very highly recommend him to any couple.

from start to finish. He communicated promptly and answered any of our questions/concerns leading up to the session. Jeff recommended an amazing location for us to have the shoot and came prepared with various poses to have us in. Jeff was extremely easy to work with and was outgoing, He made us feel comfortable throughout the entire session. High quality photos were given to us very quickly, with a full album available just a few days after the shoot. I would highly recommend Jeff for photography services and would work with him again!

aids getting-ready area to get some really cute pictures. He was so fun to be around and took incredible pictures of my tables (a really important detail I asked for). He humored me in all my silly requests and it honestly felt like he was part of the party! ORIGINAL REVIEW: We wanted a photographer that would be relaxed and fun so we could feel and look natural in our engagement pictures. That’s exactly what we got! We had such a fun time that we hired him on the spot for our wedding. Jeff was so flexible and accommodating - he agreed to meet us at 6am to get golden hour shots in the city without a crowd! Could not recommend him more!
