Someone put this couple in a Denver magazine! We love photographing breathtaking Colorado outdoors for any occasion. However, every once in a while, it’s nice to have a little taste of the city! We celebrated Traci and Andrew at their downtown Denver wedding at the Brown Palace Hotel, and wow was it incredible! A Denver Dream Laced in gold and with hints of timeless elegance, this wedding was one for the books. Traci and Andrew welcomed family, friends and even their beloved dog to one of Denver’s oldest, most popular event venues. The Brown Palace Hotel proved the perfect spot for everything from bridal party shots to the ceremony. Located in the heart of the city, nearly everything guests might want is within walking distance: restaurants, museums, bars, music, shopping and more! Check out our blog here for other popular downtown Denver locations! Black & Gold Photographing Traci and Andrew with their wedding party was a blast! Friends and family were so bubbly that nearly every shot was a candid one – and that’s not a bad thing! Andrew and the groomsmen looked sharp in their black tuxedos and bowties. The bridesmaids glittered in gold while Traci looked wonderfully chic
Brianna & Ben's wedding was amazing. The rooftop wedding took place in downtown Denver, a perfect location for the couple and their guests to dance the night away!
Denver's RiNo district has a lot to offer. It's a trendy neighborhood, and a favorite location for locals to grab a bite to eat or meet up with friends to grab a drink. It comes as no surprise to us that this fun neighborhood is home to one of our favorite venues!
Stephanie and Justin left us positively speechless with their rooftop wedding in downtown Denver at The Curtis Hotel. From the couple's infectiously charming personalities to the ridiculously cool DIY animal masks to the secret, their big day was jaw-dropping and bursting at the seams with love from start to finish!
We loved being a part of Brent's Place grand opening. Nothing makes us happier than witnessing all of the great things that Brent's Place is doing!
We can't quite put our finger on why we loved this bridal styled shoot so much. Maybe it's the big moss covered wall that's capable of turning into a wooden one, the adorable pooch and her floral crown, or the beautiful, glammed up bride!
It's been another couple weeks full of fantastic adventures here at From the Hip! Our photographic exploits took us to California, Massachusetts, the United Kingdom, and Russia (more on those later). Here's some of what we've been working at here in the studio...
RiNo (or River North) Arts District is an area just north of downtown Denver that is chock full of awesome street art. Every street, for several blocks, is lined with incredible murals, covering what used to be an industrial part of town. RiNo made the perfect place to photograph a family brimming with confidence!
Contrary to popular belief, the middle of winter in downtown Denver is actually great time for family portraits with pets! We met the Kennedy family at Denver's Millennium Bridge for a family session with their newest furry addition!
