Rocky Mountain National Park Timed Entry Permits : What to know from photographers who live in Estes Park and frequent RMNP all year!
Hey everyone! I don't post much here any longer, but wanted to share some news. We've been busy with our new YouTube channel that highlights our adventures outside, goes over some gear reviews, talks a a bit about our van life, and shares some knowledge about our craft.
Most of it is from ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK!!
Please go check it out, like a few videos, and subscribe! Thank you!!

For the time being we will only be posting to Instagram and not here on FB. The challenges we face as a nation have been a polarizing endeavor to say the least, and to be very honest, the way FB isolates and confuses isn't healthy for us as a business or as human beings.
Until it cools down, we'll see you there!

RMNP will be opening a lot of our favorite spots on Friday! So excited to be able to enjoy our wonderful backyard again!!
Being with Nadia and Mike on their elopement was really a pleasure. These two are kind and caring, and again, we felt as though we’ve made some new friends.

This world is full of good people, we’ve just got to try to be good ourselves.

Boom. Hoping for the best.
The outpouring of concern from our wonderful couples about our safety here in Estes Park with the Cameron Peak fire has been nothing short of amazing. You have all brought me to a state of amazing, humbling gratification for who you all are and the caliber of people we have been with.
Thank you, really. We are fine so far. Unless something drastic happens, we will be ok. You are ALL incredibly special to us and we feel very humbled to know you. Cheers!
We have been very lucky to continue to do what we love during this crazy year. We've also put our blog on the back burner for the foreseeable future, and will be using our Instagram for updates and new images. (does anyone read blogs anymore??) That being said, I just updated the gallery. Go check our some of our latest couples images from the last few months! https://www.joepylephotography.com/gallery/
For those getting married in the bigger Denver area, consider Scott Awbrey if you are in need of an officiant. He is a true gent with a good sense of humor. After working with Scott more times than I can remember, he's always come through with a fantastic ceremony that is as genuine as it is thoughtful.. https://www.revscottawbrey.com/
A nondenominational Colorado wedding officiant and minister serving Denver and the surrounding areas. Getting married? He will perform your ceremony.
Sarah and Matias in RMNP.
RMNP is such a wonderful place to have pictures of you two made! Get in touch soon if you’re interested, we have had a zillion inquiries lately for the fall and we don’t want you to miss out.
Our time spent with Kaycie and Travis in the alpine was truly awe inspiring. The color of the sky was magical, and we took our time and watched the sunset.

Feeling so fortunate to have RMNP just a ten minute drive from our home.

If you could have engagement pictures taken anywhere, where would it be? Personally, I’ve always wanted to see Scotland. It seems like a fairy tale.
A beautiful wedding day at the @estesparkresort and a quick adventure session in RMNP.
As much as I really dislike the fires that are happening in our beautiful state right now, it does create some fantastic evening light. Sarah and Matias were married last night and we were sooo humbled all evening by the light, the company, and the kindness shown by these two. Congratulations you two! It was a night not soon forgotten!
A small, intimate elopement is the best alternative to a big wedding. Get in touch if your plans have changed. Most of our big weddings this year have switched to small elopements and we’re happy to help you plan!
Evening light with a fantastic family in RMNP. We work with about three to five families per week here in the Estes Park area and it's always beautiful!
Elopements photos at 12,000 feet. Get in touch if this years plans have had to change for you! We have a package for just you two, under ten people, and more. Get in touch, our fall is nearly booked up.
Latest blog is up and running!! Angela and Andrew at the Wild Basin Lodge!
Angela and Andrew's Wild Basin Lodge wedding was a beautiful testament to what a small wedding could be.
New blog post from Katy and Alex’s after wedding pictures! By the way, if you didn’t know already, we have been busy with small elopements and after wedding pictures in RMNP. Keeping socially distant isn’t hard around here!

We love weddings at the Wild Basin Lodge, just outside of Estes Park. Here’s a few from Andrew and Angela’s beautiful time both there and on an adventure session.

Katy and Alex’s adventure session in RMNP was perfect. The weather, the sunlight, the locations, the laughter, and the congratulatory brews at Rock Cut- all on point!! We’re so fortunate to work with so many couples who appreciate the beauty of the outdoors.

Our inbox is full of new, exciting inquiries lately! Elopements are becoming the new norm for a lot of couples whose plans have changed this year, and Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park are the perfect place to be married if you’re looking to save a lot of money!

A few images from our latest engagement session we had in Hermit Park Open Space, just outside of Estes Park. It’s a beautiful place, and since RMNP is still closed, it’s a fantastic alternative for couples. We also found an amazeballs overlook for a small elopement too!!
@ Hermit Park Open Space
In this weird time of us all not knowing exactly what we should or shouldn't be doing, remember this: people still fall in love, get engaged, and get married. Kari and I had an amazing time with these two at Hermit Park the other day and, as we kept our distance, we made good friends. Enjoy! https://www.joepylephotography.com/marissa-and-michaels-engagement-session-at-hermit-park/
Melissa and Michael were had an engagement session at Hermit Park with us the other day and, while still keeping our distance, we all had a blast!
Rocky Mountain National Park will soon be open and that means weddings and elopements in Estes Park! We can't wait! Hope you're all hanging in there!
Beautiful wedding photography in a beautiful location. Join us in Estes Park, Colorado.
Oh, to travel. Anyone else feel me with this?
This is from Dovile and Corbin's adventure session at the Exit Glacier, Kenai Fjords.
We were witness to a beautiful, small wedding of two calm and beautiful souls the other day. It was so good to get a pause in the stay at home order and responsibly just “be” with a group of people again, especially when it’s friends getting married.
Pretty and amazing at once.
Catching up on some blogging! If you haven't been to the site recently, it's all new. Go poke around and let me know what you think!
Enjoy this wonderful elopement with Kristen and Cody at the Romantic Riversong in Estes Park.
What a lovely day with Kristen and Cody here in Estes Park and RMNP.
Skyview, you hold some fun receptions! Can’t wait to get my moves back out and dance with our brides and grooms. Hope you all are holding in there. Stay safe and keep your chin up!
I've been literally dumping days into the new website, and I just updated the gallery. So much history for us all here! Go check it out. Or not, either way it'll still be amazing. :)
Welcome to our gallery, and thanks for visiting.

How many of you brides and grooms have been in our van?? We've had several folks ask us about our van, Vegas. (appropriately named after an album by The Crystal Method) Here's a video for you! Keep in mind that we do not shoot video, for obvious reasons.
Two before and after photos. I don't like to show much of the SOOC shots, but I thought it might "enlighten" some. I find the post-processing totally fascinating and I love to learn as much as I can. Kari and I work hard to create beautiful, amazing images that our clients love and we've invested much into this life. We love it, and we wouldn't want to do anything else. (To be totally fair, having the best equipment and editing software helps, but you've got to know how and when to use it.)
