Sometimes you never know who you’ll meet during your travels, and it’s something I love about traveling to new destinations! I connected with Cassidy and Scott over Instagram, and we set out to get some couples portraits of the two of them at a waterfall near Ouray this summer.
I brought with me a gorgeous blue maxi dress with the most fun cape attached to the shoulders, and we made some serious magic! Cassidy and Scott are also so extremely welcoming, and I felt like I was talking to close friends almost immediately. They thoroughly enjoyed loving up on each other during our couples session, and now I can’t wait to take future couples here for elopements someday!
Ouray, Silverton, and Telluride all definitely have a special place in my heart now. You can even head on over to read about our amazing SXS ATV trip in Silverton, where I scouted out epic elopement locations in Colorado!

Your Photographer, Videographer + Collaborator
Hey there! I’m Kaitlyn, the lead photographer + videographer behind Skyewater Photo + Film, based in Seattle, WA.
An introvert at heart, I always value real connection, stories, and conversation over surface-level interaction any day of the week.
Having documented 200+ weddings and elopements on camera over the last decade, if there’s one thing I’ve realized it’s that I have a knack for being the calm, welcoming, and intuitive energy couples didn’t even realize they needed.
So, I invite you to think about what it would feel like to be fully present, unapologetically yourselves, and care-free on your wedding day instead of worrying about what everyone else wants. And take comfort in knowing you have my full support, every step of the way.
