About Me

Hi I’m Alton

Alton Richardson Weddings is a wedding and elopement photography studio based in Boulder, Colorado, built for couples who care more about genuine connection than perfect poses. With two decades behind the lens and a life shaped by the mountains — climbing, skiing, fly fishing, and trail running — Alton brings an authentic, documentary eye to every wedding day. All families, genders, and orientations are warmly welcomed here.

What you can expect from me?

Honest, Documentary Coverage I'm not here to stage your wedding — I'm here to document it honestly. Every photo in my portfolio features real people on their actual wedding days, capturing real emotions and energy as they naturally unfold.
Two Decades of Craft I've spent the past two decades pursuing photography as both a passion and a career. That experience informs how I see people and moments, allowing me to anticipate and preserve the irreplaceable, unrepeatable memories that make each wedding day unique.
In-Camera Creative Techniques My work pairs intentional composition with in-camera techniques like reflections, rings of fire, and double exposures. These creative elements serve as a bridge to the chaotic, emotional, and joyful moments that define your day.
Collaborative Creative Process I don't treat weddings as transactions. I collaborate with couples to create meaningful images that honor connection and mutual trust — pictures that feel as unique as you are.
Wide Travel Availability Based in Colorado, I serve the greater Front Range, Summit County, Wyoming, New Mexico, and destinations across North America and beyond.
