ABOUT EMMALEE
I’m a Colorado-born photographer and storyteller with a focus on lifestyle, elopements, and destination weddings. I’ve been obsessed with reading and games since I could consume morsels of other worlds- and that love of stories has translated into a love for real-life moments; the sparkle in a lover’s eye, the touch of the reunited, and the magic in the mundane.
“Celebrate we will, because life is short but sweet for certain.”
Here’s what’s up…
I believe our real-life moments are worthy of documenting for the space they hold in our hearts. Ourselves as we really are, from the personal space you brew your morning coffee in, to the altar at the intentionally-planned wedding of your dreams, these photographs are YOURS and I want you to see the beauty in your precious moments. Whether you are holding your gallery in your hands or mounting it on the bones of your home- I hope you see the art I create with our time and think “this is US!”
With Monarch and Sage Photography, I promise to not only deliver a gorgeous gallery to treasure forever, I’ll be your ear to listen and hand to hold during the stressful moments, and the party who brings the music and gets down on the dance floor as your new best friend. Let’s create magic together!
“So glad EmmaLee jumped in last minute to photograph our micro wedding! She even arrived early but started by helping with set-up and decor before taking pictures of details, which put my mind at ease as we had guests arriving any minute. We could not be more happy we found her and our pictures were all we dreamed of!”
“EmmaLee has taken our family photos many times, we can always count on her capturing the special moments and she’s the best with my kids, so patient and always gets their sparkling personalities. We will always choose her!”
“In the chaos of wedding planning and general life, my fiancée and I were ecstatic to have a session with Monarch and Sage Photography. Not only were our pictures beyond what we’d dreamed, she made us feel so comfortable and helped plan the perfect activities to make it feel like a date. We’re normally not very comfortable in front of a camera, but Em helped make us feel like we just hanging out with her as friends. We are so excited to have her capture our wedding!”

“As a child, I’d obsess over stories, fact and fiction, and dream up what they’d look like in depth. now with you, I get to add to the collective of art in this world.”
