Thistle & Poppy was created for the dreamers and the lovers, those who believe in slow mornings, wildflowers, and the magic of being seen as you are. Together, we’ll craft imagery that feels effortless yet artful, photographs that don’t just show how your day looked, but how it felt.
I’m McKenzie Bigliazzi (pronounced “Big-lee-ozzy”), and I am a Colorado-based photographer who travels extensively to capture the essence of both intimate and grand moments. I am dedicated to transforming fleeting instances into timeless works of art, without making you feel weird in front of the camera. My photography balances candid, posed, and spontaneous moments, creating images that feel both authentic and artistic.
Hey, I’m Colleen– your photographer, guide, and hype person. I’m currently located in North Georgia and photograph elopements and weddings throughout Georgia, the southeast, and anywhere in the US! I started photographing weddings over 9 years ago, and as cliche as it is, I love love.
