Telluride + Crested Butte Adventure Photographer
The Experience
What you get with me is more than someone to show up and shoot your photos. You get a hype-man, friend, confidant, consultant, location scout and so much more. I will be by your side through the whole process. We can meet for coffee to discuss what you have in mind, you can text me inspiration photos, you can call me for wardrobe advice- anything and everything you need before, during and after your shoot; I am there.
Every package comes with a 25 page style and information guide, my exclusive location guide with over 20 locations to choose from, and unlimited consultations. Certain packages also include a personal stylist who will help pick items from your own closet, and select new pieces based on your personal style and where you like to shop.
The day of our shoot all you have to do is show up! You don't need to know how to pose, or know your angles, or have a best side picked out (although if you do...let's work it!). I will walk you through all the poses, and I have a whole tool bag full of fun prompts to get everyone laughing and having fun. You don't have to stress about getting candid photos, those moments will happen in a guided but natural way during our session.
After the session I will edit the very best images in a way that enhances the feel of the shoot itself. You will then get to select your favorite images from an online gallery. Additional images are $15 each and all you have to do is favorite the ones you love. You can order prints directly through the online gallery, select one of my print collections, or download the photos and print them wherever you like. Easy peasy!

Session Prep
Once you're on the calendar you will receive a location guide filled with incredible spots to choose from, a styling guide with pro-tips on what to wear + how to make the most of your session, and a questionnaire that will allow me to get to know you a bit before the big day!
The big day
The day of the session, all you have to do is show up! I come prepared with a glam kit, a changing tent, and a treasure box for little kiddos. You don't have to know how to pose or model; I will guide you through every step. We will have plenty of time to capture candid moments too. Just bring a go with the flow attitude, and I will handle the rest!
Receive your gallery
2-3 weeks after the session you will receive a link for your private online gallery. From here you can select the images you'd like to keep, and order art + heirlooms. You have 1 week from the gallery delivery date to make your selections, and two weeks to use your print credits.
Print Ordering
Once your final gallery has been delivered I will be in touch to schedule a print consultation. If you are local we can meet at my studio or at your home, or we can schedule a zoom call! Though you are not required to order from me, I use a professional printing lab and my images are specifically calibrated to their equipment, ensuring accurate colors and top notch quality.

FAQ
What sets you apart from other photographers?
My passion is capturing beautiful, emotional moments and integrating the stunning natural landscapes here in Western Colorado. You will notice a mix of wide landscape shots and tight, intimate photographs in your gallery. With years of photojournalism and portrait training under my belt, I know how to pose and guide clients to make them feel relaxed while looking their very best. I use natural lighting as often as possible and make sure my sessions are intimate & fun!
Will you Photoshop my images to hide any unwanted spots, wrinkles, etc?
I primarily edit for color, contrast and light. Minor edits such as smoothing skin, removing blemishes and whitening teeth will be made to all of your images, but I believe our imperfections are what make us beautiful & unique.
When will we get our photos?
Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 4 weeks (usually much less). You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and order prints!
Do you travel outside of montrose?
Yes! Ridgway, Ouray, Telluride, and Crested Butte are some of my favorite destination locations- but I shoot all over the Western Slope.
Do I have to order prints through you?
I highly recommend ordering prints through one of my professional vendors, but it isn't required. The difference in quality is huge when it comes to ordering through a professional lab, so I always love to help with prints! I have an affordable collection listed on my pricing page.
How do we reserve our date?
Shoot me an email or head straight to my booking calendar on the contact page! A 25% retainer is required to get your session on the books. The remainder of your balance is due the day of your session.
How are my photos protected?
Every session & wedding is shot with dual cards and two camera bodies. This means if one memory card fails, there is always a backup the images have been written onto. If one camera body fails, I always have another. I also upload all images onto an external hard drive the minute I get home from your session. Once images are culled they are uploaded onto another hard drive. When all is said and done, your images have been backed up 4 times!
Kind Words
“Not only is Savannah insanely talented, she is absolutely the sweetest and a tiny tot whisperer! My daughter fell asleep on the way to our session and woke up grumpy. Savannah worked her magic and had her giggling in no time. This is the second time we’ve had our family pics by her and I love the way she edits images to enhance the beauty, but doesn’t overdo it, so the photos have a timeless look. I’m so grateful to have these beautiful photos of our family!!”
“Savannah is the best! She really captured the moment when doing our engagement photos. She’s quick to reply and quick getting your photos back to you. She’s easy going and just the best. If you’re looking for a photographer who’s fun, knows what they’re doing, can really capture the raw emotions between you and your lover…savannah is your go to gal. You won’t regret it!”
“Savannah is a talented photographer who is adept at capturing the beauty of the landscape as well as special moments between her subjects. I booked a fall mini session for our family and met her for the first time when we arrived for the session. She is so fun and personable and puts everyone at ease. I also appreciate how she both has a plan and also easily works with the real life that young kids bring to a photo shoot. Our family pictures are gorgeous!”
