Dedicated to Perfection | Telluride Colorado | Telluride Wedding Photographer | Abie Livesay Photography

“Abie is simply THE BEST. My fiancée and I got engaged in Telluride, CO in January of 2021, and I needed a stealthy and professional photographer to capture the surprise moment. Abie was extremely professional in the planning leading up to the proposal, detailing out exactly where to meet and how to go about the surprise in our favorite town.
Abie's photography skills are unmatched. She knew exactly where to take us around town, and was dedicated to making the experience perfect. We got pictures in various locations on what was a freezing day in Telluride - describes Abie's dedication to perfection! Her editing was incredible, and our pictures turned out exactly as we wanted!” -John

Off-season in Telluride | Telluride Sleighs and Wagons Wedding | Telluride Colorado Wedding Photographer | Abie Livesay Photography

It’s off-season for our sleepy little mountain village which means Telluride and her people take a few weeks to absorb and cherish the summer and prepare for the season that she shines the brightest—winter. Although there isn’t a lot going right now and the Gondola is closed until Friday November 19th, that doesn’t mean we are without things to do. This is the perfect time to soak up the warm sun with a bike ride, hike or walk before the snow begins to pile up. Go to that restaurant you’ve been wanting to try out, just check out this list to find out which ones are open during off-season. Spend some time planning the rest of your year, prepare for the holidays, and just rest. Here is the best place to make your plans for the next few months.
As I close on the busiest part of the 2021 wedding season, I’m grateful for a few quiet moments to dream about winter and to reflect on some of the most beautiful and real moments with my brides and grooms. I’m so thankful for my clients, this place I call home and the gift of capturing your most precious day. Thanks for trusting me with your day, your people and your love!

xo, Abie

Night Strolls Through Telluride | Telluride Colorado | Abie Livesay Photography | Telluride Photographer

Maybe it's because I grew up in very rainy Pittsburgh, but I LOVE shooting in less than perfect conditions weather wise. This sleeting, foggy walk home from Cosmopolitan made for some beautiful views of the mountains surrounding Telluride. I love the inviting, warm glow from the homes and shops on the back alley.

Walking in Clouds | San Sophia Overlook Wedding | Telluride Colorado Wedding Photographer | Abie Livesay Photography

Weather in the mountains can be unpredictable, which makes them all the more mysterious, beautiful and alive. These are some of my favorite days, when our Telluride mountains decide to show off in a completely different way. The views here are NEVER disappointing, just look! Moments captured like this one reminds us of the beauty in the unpredictable.
