When we decided to elope and were searching for photographers, we immediately fell in love with Sean's style when we came across his website. After an initial conversation, we decided to book with him and are so glad we did! We are not local, but Sean made everything easy with a custom app that had recommendations for vendors, lodging and food. He asked about our vision, scouted locations and guided us to the perfect private spot for our ceremony, as well as a spectacular second photo spot in front of a waterfall! When we found out last minute that our originally planned court house was closed on the day, he quickly helped us pivot to another one close by. Throughout the entire process he was super responsive to any questions we had, and I am so grateful we had access to his experience and expertise for our wedding adventure! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a personalized back-country elopement experience and absolutely magical photos to remember the day by!Posted on Google
kelly sSean and his team were amazing! I was getting nervous about the changing weather and the schedule adjustments, but Sean clearly knew exactly what he was doing because everything turned out FLAWLESS! The sneak peek photos are to die for—better than I could have imagined! I’m usually someone who hates how I look in photos, but between the incredible hair and makeup and Sean’s talent for capturing moments so naturally, I couldn’t believe how much I loved them. Sean, Holden and Ally were all exceptional. Sean was professional did great planning, capturing the moment as well as hyping us up to keep our nerves at bay. Ally did hands down the best hair and makeup I’ve ever had making me feel beautiful in my big day, and Holden was professional, creative, and captured some really unique shots. After seeing the care he put into filming, I’m so excited to see the video! If you’re considering eloping in Colorado, I can’t recommend Sean and his team enough. They helped make our day unforgettable, and I’m so happy we chose them!Posted on Google
Brendan and MeganSean is THE MAN! He's extremely knowledgeable about the area, very personable, and answers all your questions right away.

Stephanie BWe truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Sean from Vows & Peaks. From our very Facetime, we knew we had made the right decision. He immediately made us feel comfortable, excited and confident that we were in good hands. Sean went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process and somehow made everything feel completely stress-free. He put together a list of location recommendations specifically for us and each location with all the information we could possibly need -- permit requirements, best time of day to go, hike difficulty, what to expect, and more. He even created a customized/personalized app for us that was filled with helpful info, timelines, recommendations and a packing list. He truly was our own personal elopement guide. By the time our wedding day arrived, all we really had to do was show up and enjoy it. Then there were the photos. They are absolutely breathtaking. He somehow captured not only how beautiful the landscape was but also all of the little moments and emotions that made the day feel so special. We spent roughly 6 hours hiking and exploring with him and not once did it feel awkward, uncomfortable or like we were spending the day with a stranger. Sean is incredibly down to earth, easy to talk to, funny and genuinely enjoyable to be around. Our elopement was everything we could have hoped for and more, and a huge part of that was because of Sean. He didn't just take beautiful photos -- he helped create an unforgettable experience from start to finish. We could not recommend Sean more!!Posted on Google
Alaina LibkieSean is the absolute best. Josh and I had never been to Colorado, but the day Vows and Peaks entered my Instagram feed, my heart was set. Sean had us fill out a short questionnaire, and created a day for us that was more than we could have ever imagined. The views, breathtaking, the execution, seamless. Everyone is amazed by our photos, we’ve even had friends say they wish they could redo their wedding to be like ours. If you’re thinking about hiring Sean, stop thinking and do it. He’s amazing at what he does. Most of all, Sean was as friendly and outgoing as you could hope for, making everything relaxed and comfortable. He broke the ice by mentioning Tim Biakabutuka to Josh, who is an avid wolverines fan, and from that point on we knew we were in good company lol. Thanks again, Sean!Posted on Google
Sydney CooneySpencer and I are so happy with our elopement with Sean. The entire process was seamless, he was a real and genuine person the entire time, maintained positivity, and was true to every promise. Not to mention he is an insanely cool person to spend your wedding day with. He picked the perfect location for Spencer and I and maintained excitement through the entire 8 miles and 2,500+ ft gain. That's not easy to do!! Here are a couple of our sneak peeks. I am so excited to see our final photos. Thank you so much, Sean! If you love the outdoors and are an adventurous couple trying to find an elopement photographer, the choice is easy. Go with Vows and Peaks!Posted on Google
bobmobile66 HerceglicFrom our very first conversation, Sean made us feel like we were in great hands. He took the time to learn what we envisioned for our elopement and helped guide us through choosing the perfect location. His gallery of locations and communication helped us decide on Maroon Bells near Aspen as the most meaningful location for us. It turned out to be absolutely breathtaking and everything we had hoped for. Throughout the planning process, Sean communicated exceptionally well, answered every question we had, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel exciting and manageable. On our wedding day, he was calm, patient, and encouraging. Walking over rocky terrain in a tuxedo and wedding gown wasn’t exactly easy, but he never rushed us and always made sure we felt comfortable and at ease. He reminded us that this was our day, and we got to decide what worked best for us. The photographs are simply incredible. They didn’t just capture how our day looked—they captured how it felt. Every time we look at them, we’re taken right back to the joy, excitement, and adventure of our elopement. If you’re looking for an elopement photographer who is talented, organized, professional, and genuinely invested in making your day unforgettable, I can’t recommend Sean highly enough. We are so grateful we trusted him with one of the most important days of our lives.Posted on Google
Elizabeth MccullomI cannot recommend Sean enough! His communication, planning, accommodating, and work is so amazing. He is so kind and truly made our elopement perfect. As a photo awkward person, he made it so effortless. I am so thankful we got to have our photos done by him and had him to help us plan our big day!Posted on Google
Anne Campbell AbramThe most valuable advice we received was "the best plan is no plan". And while preparation is essential, Sean's perspective gave us the opportunity to live in the moment and adapt to the ever changing mountain weather effortlessly. From the very first phone call, Sean listened to our thoughts and questions, offering the support and direction needed to make our elopement truly memorable. He provided the space for us to be creative and flexible; not only is he one of the coolest dudes we've ever spent time with, he was incredibly patient with our semi- thought out plans and my own lack of confidence on skis. The pictures reflect a day that was far beyond our expectations. Sean captured moments that represented our elopement perfectly-from breathtaking and fun to the completely unexpected. Thank you, Sean, for sharing your your incredible photography skills, your great attitude and our special day with us.Posted on Google
