Claire Hunt Photography | Colorado Wedding Photographer
Capturing the undeniably-you with a documentary-style and joy-filled editorial flair – because no moment is too small to photograph.
Claire Hunt is a destination and Colorado film wedding photographer whose work is rooted in connection – with her couples and the people they love most. With over 6 years of experience and a commitment to working with only 10 couples per year, Claire takes the time to truly connect with her couples and their loved ones – and that connection is what allows her to capture each celebration in an undeniably-you way.
Her approach combines documentary storytelling with artistry, shooting 70% digital and 30% film (35mm and medium format) to create galleries that feel both timeless and true-to-life. Claire doesn’t just document from the sidelines – she becomes part of your celebration, connecting with your guests and capturing the spontaneous laughter during welcome parties, the quiet moments before walking down the aisle, when grandma joins the dance floor for a lap dance, and everything in-between.
Moments are constantly fleeting, and that reality gives Claire’s work its profound importance. She captures future memories within moments as they truly happen. Claire brings a welcoming, calming presence that helps couples feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, even those who typically feel uncomfortable in photos.
Claire’s couples appreciate refined details, fashion-forward design, and curated experiences, but never at the expense of real moments. They want to be effortlessly present with those they love most, trusting that every moment they didn’t have the opportunity to witness will be beautifully preserved. This work is more than photography – it’s truly Claire’s legacy to honor couples and their stories in this way.

Fun facts
Where are you originally from?
Originally from the south, I built my photography business in Nashville and I've had the privilege of photographing in the mountains since 2021. While country music is my least favorite genre (I'm sorry if you love it), you can absolutely expect a bit of a southern accent that just won't go away.
What are your favorite kinds of couples to work with?
Couples who value being fully present on their wedding day over perfection. You appreciate refined, intentional details and fashion-forward yet timeless design. You want curated experiences throughout your wedding weekend celebrations, but never at the expense of real moments. No moment is too small to photograph – from the big moments like the first kiss to the fleeting ones like dad's tears during the first dance or your guests dressed to the nines bringing the party on the dance floor. Most importantly, you want a photographer who brings a welcoming, calming presence, truly knows your story, and makes you feel seen, comfortable, and natural.
Do you travel for clients? If so, where?
Absolutely! I'm based in Colorado but I photograph destination weddings worldwide. I've photographed celebrations all throughout the US, in Cabo, Italy, Spain, and France, and I'm always ready for the next travel. Whether you're tying the knot on the island of Mallorca, an Italian-inspired venue in Florida, the coast of Cabo, or in the Colorado mountains, I create custom travel packages with no surprises or hidden fees. I accept a limited number of celebrations per year (10 maximum) to give every couple my full energy and attention, so if you're dreaming of a destination wedding, let's talk early.
Where do you find your design inspiration?
My inspiration comes from you – your story, your love, your personality, your celebration. I don't get my inspiration from Pinterest or try to force couples into a specific aesthetic. Instead, I focus on capturing who you actually are and the moments that make your day undeniably-you. That said, I'm deeply inspired by connection, travel, culture, European architecture, film photography, and the beauty of time. My goal is to create images that feel like you so it takes you back to that very moment years from now.
