Authentic Collective -

Where do I even begin! Our elopement will forever be unforgettable because of Savannah & Greg! When we first got engaged, we intended on planning a full wedding, but a few weeks in we realized how stressful it had already become and knew we wanted something different, something special, just the two of us. After joining multiple elopement groups and following several different photographers, we kept gravitating back to Authentic Collective, their work was unmatched! After reaching out and having our consultation with Savannah & Greg we knew we wanted to go with them. Initially I was a little apprehensive that we wouldn’t “stack up” to the quality photos that they take, as we are very simple, far from extravagant, rarely dress up and their work is extraordinary! Without hesitation they provided all the details we needed to get started. We didn’t have a lot of questions through the planning process, I have a feeling this made them a little apprehensive about us as clients, but when we did have questions they addressed everything promptly. The day of our elopement came, meeting for the first time before our sunrise hike, they were instantly inviting, calming all nerves. Their eye for detail and romance made every moment of our two day elopement feel more intimate than we imagined it could be. To top things off, their affection for our dogs and ability to capture the most precious moments, mean more to us than they will ever know! We ended our two day elopement knowing we gained two new friends wishing we would have booked three days, so our time with them didn’t have to end! Authentic Collective is 100% worth the investment!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most perfect pictures! We found ourselves saying after we received the sneak peeks, how could we possibly get better or more pictures than these? You guys exceeded any and all expectations! You guys were great from the first meeting to the last day of our wedding! It was truly the most special day and we are so thankful that you guys captured it in the way that you did. I know I said it before but our time at Emerald Lake was so special and our favorite part of the whole week. Thank you for picking out that place and making it such a fun and memorable experience. It truly captured the beauty of our favorite place. Thank you thank you thank you so much for these perfect pictures. They are truly everything we wanted and more!

Savannah and Greg are AMAZING! We truly cannot imagine our day without them. They made us feel so comfortable that it felt like we were spending the day with friends. Their photography is stunning! When we received the preview photos, we were speechless. They also helped us create the perfect schedule, from our sunrise ceremony to a picnic in one of the most breathtaking places we've ever seen. It truly was the best day of our lives. We cannot recommend them enough and are beyond thrilled that we chose them. Highly recommend!

Savannah & Greg were such a blessing to have as a part of our wedding day!! We had a micro wedding in July at Maroon Bells in Colorado and they were so helpful with helping us get everything we needed! They were respectful and accepting of my pronouns (I’m non-binary and I noticed that they used my pronouns and that alone made me feel so comfortable) and they rolled (gracefully) with the fact that we had several last minute guest cancellations that impacted our photo list. We went on an easy hike with them to take our newly wed photos and it was amazing!! The hike was beautiful and it was great getting to chat with them!! They knew the area and even got us some sneaks back very quickly - we can’t wait to see our full gallery with our film and video!! Booking them was the first things we did once we got engaged and it was the best decision we made!! Much love to them

Where do we even begin?! We had the most incredible experience working with Savannah and Greg, and we truly cannot thank them enough for everything. When we first decided we wanted to elope, we had absolutely no idea where to begin. We stumbled upon them on Google, and we were so amazed by their work. We looked at every single gallery on their website and Instagram page, and we just could not have been more obsessed. They truly create art. After the first call with the two of them, we immediately knew we wanted to work with them. They were so kind and down to earth, and they are so genuine. They were with us every step of the planning process as well. We are from out of state and although we love Colorado, we are certainly no experts when it comes to the landscape. They curated the best locations for us based on the things we told them were important to us. Greg and Sav have spent thousands of hours scouting out the most amazing places in Colorado to get married, and the places are all so beautiful that you will have a hard time picking just one! They will help you find the perfect place that you are looking forward based on your likes, interests, etc. They have multiple amazing guides that they have spent so much time crafting. You can tell they have poured their hearts into their business, and you can see it in the quality of their work. They are excellent communicators, and they answer any question you may have throughout the entire planning process. The actual day of our elopement was the most relaxed day we could have asked for. Sav and Greg helped us stick to our timeline without ever making us feel like we were rushed. We were able to do and see everything we planned. They were so patient with us when taking photos/videos and never made us feel awkward. We had the best time with them throughout the 10 hours we were with them, and they felt like old friends we had known forever. We received our sneak peeks of the photo gallery and the teaser film, and I think we have looked at the photos and watched the film hundreds of times. They have MORE than exceeded any and all expectation! We've said it before, but truly, their work is ART. We are SO proud to show off the photos and video, and we can't wait to see the final product (not sure how it can get any better than what we've already received)! If we haven't convinced you to book with them, let their 100+ 5 star reviews and social medial galleries speak for themselves. We could not be happier with our choice, and we cannot thank Savannah and Greg enough for making the most important day of our lives beyond what we could have imagined.

We had the pleasure of working with Sav and Greg for our elopement, and we truly cannot praise them enough. From start to finish, they were everything we could have asked for: friendly, accommodating to our evolving interests, and always responsive. They listened to our vision and crafted an experience that felt personal, unique, and entirely special to us. The locations they found for us exceeded our expectations, which made our time with them an experience we will remember forever. We spent a lot of time on Instagram looking at various photographers, but once we came across Authentic Collective, we knew our search was over. The style and quality of their work speaks for itself.

On our elopement day, their professionalism and creativity shone through in every interaction. Not only did they make us feel comfortable and relaxed, but they also made sure that our time together flowed effortlessly, capturing the most intimate and beautiful moments without us ever feeling rushed. They are amazing at setting up shots that allow for capturing special moments all while not making you feel overly directed or staged. Their approach allowed us to be present in the moment while knowing that we were in the best hands. The experience they provided us before, during, and after our elopement, and the quality they delivered is well worth the investment. Even though we only spent 8 hours together, by the end of our time together, they felt like friends.

We are thrilled with our gallery and experience, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for photographers who combine talent, passion, and an incredible ability to make your day truly one of a kind! If you’re looking for the perfect photographers for your special day, you’ve found them. Hiring them for your elopement or microwedding will be the best decision you make.

When we decided we wanted to have a small, unique ceremony with beautiful pictures, we didn’t know where to start. We found Savannah and Greg online (Tik Tok actually) and from the moment we reached out, they were extremely helpful, responsive, and friendly! They helped with planning, they reassured us, and they took the stress out of planning a wedding in the wilderness, making it simpler. We will let the pictures speak for themselves, but we are clearly pleased with the results. They are more than breathtaking! The experience and memories Authentic Collective gave us is something we will never forget! We love y’all!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Savannah and Greg. We got married last week in Yosemite and they were kind, professional, and understanding at every turn. During the consultation periods and figuring out what we wanted, they were so helpful and guided us to a plan that encompassed everything we wanted and more. They were a pleasure to work with and made the day even more fun and enjoyable. We also got many compliments from the guests about how kind they were and how efficient the formal photos were after the ceremony. The photos are outstanding; we could not be more pleased and grateful that we booked them for our wedding. I would recommend them ten times over, they are worth everything.
