For the adventurous, the sentimental, and everyone in between.
Colorado & Wyoming photographer specializing in elopements, couples, families, and unforgettable experiences.
Welcome to my online corner, I’m Arin McCleary.
I’m happiest with a camera in my hand and dirt on my shoes. Most days you’ll find me chasing good light, exploring new places, riding horses, hiking, climbing, or editing somewhere in the back of my car on the way to the next adventure. I photograph landscapes, people, and animals in a natural, story-driven way that feels honest and alive. Less polished perfection, more real moments and experiences.
Photos
For the dreamers, wanderers, surfers, climbers, and people chasing a life outdoors.
Selected work
 
Seniors
 
The people I photograph are rarely professional models. I’m more interested in honest moments, natural movement, and creating images that feel relaxed, personal, and lived in.
 
Couples
 
Whether we're wandering through the mountains or exploring somewhere new, every session is laid-back, fun, and completely stress-free.
 
Elopement's
 
Your elopement day should feel like an adventure, not a production. I'm here to help keep things relaxed so you can focus on each other and soak in every moment.
Let’s work together
 
Have a project in mind? Let’s talk about it.
