The results were amazing and we couldn't be any happier!
Grateful to have the opportunity to work with Mountain Magic Media. They did a photo shoot for a surprise engagement in Crested Butte and assisted me with the location scouting, as well as the setup for the magic moment. Lydia and T are extremely easy to work with, very communicative, and such a great couple/team. They make you feel very comfortable and natural with the photos (especially as someone who does not like taking photos). The results were amazing and we couldn’t be any happier. I highly recommend them to anyone in the greater Crested Butte area and we are very grateful!

If you are on the fence and reading this - just book them already!!
Wow, what an experience! Not only are Lydia & T wonderful to spend time with, they are the experience you are looking to book! We booked our wedding elopement adventure with them and from the initial conversation to the finished product we couldn’t be happier! They are up for adventure, no really, they explored all over with us and made our day so relaxing. From the first photo to the last, they really do make magic happen. We were lucky to capture the golden hour surrounded by wildflowers and have our moments come to life in photos. Lydia & T truly care about your experience, they listen to you and make sure you get the experience (and the photos) you want! We’ve found our go-to photographer to capture our moments & memories. Thank you so much for making our elopement better than we imagined!
- Heather & Kipp
Lydia and T of Mountain Magic Media provided us with the most beautiful and loving experience we could have asked for.
They went above and beyond in helping us plan the different locations where we would take pictures. They timed the different locations with the time of day and where the sun would be in the sky, providing us with the perfect lighting in every location. It just absolutely blew my mind how detailed they were in making it such a gorgeous experience. I enjoyed working with Lydia and T, not just for their incredible technical skills, but also their fun and adventurous personalities. I would absolutely recommend these photographers for whatever special day you have in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
We define this in simple terms: If it’s just the two of you (& maybe your pup!) plus up to 30 people, then you can book our adventure elopement packages. If you’re having more than 30 people total be a part of your day and photography coverage, it’s an intimate wedding.
Every adventure is unique and we will help you plan the specifics of yours. Typically, plan for 45 minutes to an hour (or sometimes more, depending on how quickly you warm up to the camera) at each location.
- Proposals & Engagements: 1-3 hours
- Elopements: 4-12 hours
- Weddings: 6-12 hours
- Boudoir: 3-5 hours
We’ll send you a quick questionnaire, a customizable quote to accept, and a contract to sign. Save your date by paying 25% of your full package amount for weddings & elopements or 50% for engagements, proposals, & boudoir as a reservation retainer.
Maybe somewhere along the way of this journey someone told you that you want RAW files. We’re here to tell you the bad news and the good news. The bad news is that if we deliver RAW images to you, your computer likely won’t have the software to open or view these images. RAWs are meant for professional photographers (like us) to develop the images. It’s like asking for half-baked cake. The good news is that you can have your cake and eat it too! We’ll deliver high-resolution JPGs to you. Your computer will be able to open them, your eyes will be able to see them, and your heart will fall in love with them. The the only thing you need raw in your photographs: raw emotion.
