We’re Joe and Kaila Harper

Hey there,

We’re a photographer and videographer duo based in Boulder, Colorado. Before we found our way into weddings, we spent over a decade working in the fashion world — creating editorial work for Vogue UK, ELLE UK, The New York Times – T Magazine, L’Officiel USA, and more. That world taught us a lot about light, composition, storytelling, and beauty — but photographing love stories? That changed everything.

There’s something undeniably powerful about capturing real moments — the quiet ones, the chaotic ones, the ones you didn’t even know were happening. Weddings allow us to bring an editorial eye to deeply personal stories, blending beauty and emotion in a way that feels honest and artful. We use a mix of analogue film and digital cameras to create images that feel not only timeless, but uniquely yours.

Our approach is documentary at its core — we observe, anticipate, and let moments unfold naturally. We’re there when you need us, whether it’s adjusting your veil, wrangling the bridal party, or sneaking you away for a quiet moment. But most of all, we’re there to witness and preserve the day as it truly is. We dovote ourselves to bring an authentic, natural, and laid-back approach to each celebration.

Your story matters to us, and we’re here to help you remember how it felt — not just how it looked.

Colorado Wedding Photographer

We had Joe and Kaila take our wedding photos and they were perfect! My partner and I don’t love being in photos, but the photos didn’t feel forced at all. They captured the authenticity and emotion of the wedding day that we were looking for. We love that they shoot digital and film.

  • We offer both Photo and Video packages from Micro Weddings, to full day celebrations. All of our packages include the two of us as shooters at no extra cost to you. We believe this provides the maximum coverage, ensuring no moment is missed and offering a beautiful mix of perspectives.

    We shoot on both vintage and modern formats for both Photo and Video.

    Photo packages include: digital, 35mm & 120 medium format photos.

    Video packages include digital cinema video, and Super 8mm.

  • We like to call it “Documentary” with guidance. We can be as involved as you need us to be for posing help, but we usually opt for “light posing” to acheive a nice mix of semi-posed and candid photos. We love nothing more than letting you enjoy your day as it’s meant to be, without forcing any "staged" moments that aren’t naturally happening. We believe this approach gives your gallery a more genuine, emotionally-driven feel.

  • We do not charge a travel fee for anywhere in Colorado.

    Please reach out if your wedding will be outside Colorado, we will work on a small travel fee to tie in with your package. We love to travel anywhere!

  • We know the wait can be a little long winded, so within a few days we like to send a little sneak peek of a handful of images. Typically you can expect within 4-6 weeks after the wedding for the final full image gallery, and 6-8 weeks for video.

  • Don’t worry! We want you to be as stress-free as possible on your wedding day. For most, this can be one of your first times in front of a professional camera.

    Using our experience, we provide gentle prompts to help capture beautiful, playful, and candid photos that you'll love — all while ensuring you feel as comfortable as possible.
