Shooting at The Springs Resort & Spa

Updated July 2026

The Springs Resort & Spa sits right on the San Juan River in Pagosa Springs, built around the geothermal Mother Spring the town is known for, so the whole property has steam drifting off the water even on a cold morning. Shooting here means working with the terraced hot springs pools, the riverside grounds, and the San Juan Mountains rising behind everything, so we plan portrait sessions around whichever light is hitting the water and the peaks at the time.

Because this is a destination-style resort built for soaking and slowing down, the couples who choose it usually want a more relaxed, scenery-first wedding day rather than a tightly scripted ballroom timeline. We build our coverage around golden hour on the river and the mountain views, and we make sure the steam off the springs reads well in photos instead of just fogging up the frame.

Insider tips for The Springs Resort & Spa

  • The Springs Resort & Spa is located at 323 Hot Springs Blvd in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, along the San Juan River.

  • It's built around a geothermal hot springs source with dozens of soaking pools along the San Juan River, so the setting leans toward a relaxed, destination-style wedding with mountain and riverside scenery rather than a traditional ballroom layout.

  • It's a bit of a reach. Candid Studios primarily covers the Denver, Fort Collins, and Colorado Springs corridor, and Pagosa Springs is a longer drive out in southwestern Colorado, so this would be treated as a destination wedding with travel planned into the timeline.

  • Yes, Candid Studios can photograph and film weddings at The Springs Resort & Spa as a destination booking, coordinating travel and coverage around the resort's hot springs and riverside setting.

  • Golden hour along the San Juan River and against the San Juan Mountains gives the most flattering light, and it's also when the steam off the hot springs pools tends to photograph best rather than reading as haze.

    Candid Studios Photography & Videography in Miami is outstanding.

Our final photos and video are cinematic, vibrant, and beautifully edited, and truly let us relive our day every time we watch them. Candid Studios has a proven track record with hundreds of five‑star reviews and multiple wedding industry awards, and our experience absolutely matched that reputation.

    Candid Studios Photography & Videography is absolutely phenomenal. From our very first conversation, their communication was prompt, clear, and super professional, which immediately put us at ease. On the wedding day, the team was friendly, organized, and truly felt like part of the celebration rather than just vendors in the background. They listened carefully to our vision and captured every moment beautifully — from candid, emotional shots to elegant portraits and all the tiny details in between. The final photos and video are stunning; the color, composition, and editing make it feel like we’re reliving our entire day every time we look at them. If you’re getting married in North Miami Beach, Sunny Isles Beach, or Fort Lauderdale, this is the studio you want on your team. Their 5‑star reputation is well deserved, and we would recommend Candid Studios to any couple looking for amazing wedding photography and videography.

    We hired Candid Studios Photography & Videography for our Fort Lauderdale wedding and were really happy with the entire experience. Ryan was responsive from the start, answered all our questions, and helped us build a realistic photo and video timeline around our beach ceremony and indoor reception. He gave practical suggestions about timing, how long family photos would actually take, and backup options in case the weather didn’t cooperate, which helped us feel prepared instead of stressed. On the wedding day, the team arrived on time, worked well with our planner and other vendors, and kept things moving without making it feel rushed. They grabbed the big moments — our first look, vows, and first dance — but also a lot of candid reactions from our families and friends that we didn’t see in the moment. We liked that their style felt more documentary than overly posed; there were still a few classic portraits for parents, but most of our gallery looks natural and relaxed, which is exactly what we wanted. The final photos and highlight film turned out great. Colors looked true to life, the video had clear audio even with the ocean and music, and everything was delivered within the timeframe they promised. Pricing was in line with other Fort Lauderdale wedding photographers we researched, and we appreciated that they handle both photography and videography as one team so we didn’t have to coordinate two separate companies. If you’re getting married in Fort Lauderdale — whether on the beach, on a yacht, or at one of the local hotels — Candid Studios is a solid choice. They’re professional, easy to communicate with, and experienced with South Florida weddings, and our photos and video feel like an honest, beautiful record of the day rather than a staged production. We’d comfortably recommend them to other couples looking for reliable photo and video coverage in the Fort Lauderdale and Miami area.

    Candid Studios Photography & Videography in Miami was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first consultation, Ryan listened carefully to our vision and then helped us translate it into a realistic timeline that worked with Miami’s light, traffic, and venues. He knew how to plan around the strong sun and evening glow on the bay, and suggested perfect portrait spots in areas like South Beach, Coral Gables, and Coconut Grove so our photos felt unmistakably “Miami” instead of generic. On the wedding day, the Candid Studios team was professional, calm, and everywhere they needed to be without ever feeling intrusive. They captured every important moment — our vows, first look, first dance — along with the candid laughter, emotional hugs, and wild dance‑floor shots that we would have missed in the moment. The finished gallery and film were absolutely stunning: natural colors, thoughtful composition, and a true documentary feel that made us feel like we were reliving the day from start to finish. Friends and family have not stopped complimenting the photos. What really sets Candid Studios apart in Miami is that you get a full photo and video studio in one coordinated team. They handled both photography and videography together, so the images and the film tell one consistent story instead of competing for the same moments. Our package was quoted transparently, included professionally edited images, a high‑resolution online gallery, and free RAW files, and the turnaround time was much faster than we expected. Knowing they’ve captured over 3,000 events nationwide since 2016 — including many weddings in Miami and South Florida — gave us complete confidence on a day you only get once. If you’re planning a wedding in Miami — whether at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Villa Woodbine in Coconut Grove, Villa Toscana in Homestead, or a beachfront ceremony on South Beach — we highly recommend Candid Studios. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, kept the day running smoothly even with the unpredictability of South Florida weather, and delivered timeless photos and video that we will cherish for years. This is the team you want if you care about candid storytelling, coordinated photo + video, and a truly professional experience from the first consult to the final gallery.

    Ryan captured every single moment perfectly and got some great candid shots. How he managed to be everywhere at once and the quality of service and photos delivered was beyond what I expected. I have gone on to recommend him to friends who are getting married soon and will continue to do so. If you need a photographer for your wedding or any special event, Ryan with Candid Studios is it!

    After our first consultation with Ryan, we knew we had chosen the right photographer for our wedding. Not only is Ryan highly professional but a joy and so much fun to work with. He made us feel so at ease, making us laugh & just enjoying each and every moment and it truly shows in the beautiful photos. He captured so many of the special candid moments with such attention to detail and creativity. Going through the finished photographs brought me to tears (happy ones). It was like reliving the day all over. Every photo touched our hearts in some way and we will cherish the memories forever!! Thank you Ryan and your team for all your hard work & dedication in making our wedding day in photographs so stunning! You have a true gift for capturing people’s emotions and it certainly shows in the quality of your work. We would highly recommend Candid Studios!! ***** Linda P. & George K. 5/2/26
