We had the distinct pleasure of photographing this insanely colorful party at the Gaylord. A disco party at that! Time to get some inspiration going here for your next party, wedding or big event.
Mortified, a nationwide phenomenon devoted to chronicling teen angst by having adults share their most embarrassing childhood artifacts (journals, letters, poems, lyrics, plays, home movies, art) with others. To help the less romantically inclined crowd enjoy Valentine's Day, Get Mortified puts together Mortified: Doomed Valentines edition each year. The event hosts love stories happy, sad, and all hilariously embarrassing. The event we covered at Oriental Theater on Feb 13th, featured a story by former FTH photographer Josie and her (spoilers) fiancé Jackie. Mortified provides all kinds of services. They produce podcasts, host storytelling workshops and publish books. But the comedy and atmosphere of events like this one make them incredible to attend. This event was a great way to celebrate Valentine's Day. It is always exciting to cover a live event. This one in particular wasn't just hilarious, but therapeutic. Teenage angst is something we can all relate to. So are misadventures in affection. Mortified: Doomed Valentines Edition gives us all a chance to celebrate failure. And it helps us reckon with our own regrets and embarrassment in a fun way! The whole event was a blast! Our team at From the Hip Photo had a blast capturing the joy
We have been waiting for their wedding day since Josh proposed to Hayley in Larimer Square! The rain and the backdrop of the Botanic Gardens made for a whimsical and romantic day.
As Denver event photographers, our team at From the Hip Photo has had the pleasure of documenting some of the most exciting and unique events in the city. Recently, we were hired to photograph the Dry Dock Brewing Banned Booze Ball in Aurora, Colorado.
If you ask us which venue is our absolute favorite to photograph, the answer is easy: Spruce Mountain Ranch in Larkspur, Colorado. We, at From the Hip Photo, take exceptional pride in our ongoing partnership with this little slice of heaven enveloped by idyllic meadows and serene mountains. Our collaborations stretch back over a decade. Markedly, we have had the pleasure of photographing dozens of weddings and other events at the venue over the years.
A few Valentine's Days ago, we had the pleasure of putting on our ski's and catching a chairlift with Nikki and AJ to capture their incredible Mountaintop Matrimony during Loveland Ski Area's 30th Annual "Marry Me & Ski for Free."
Having a second photographer at your wedding is important for us and has the perks for you. Celebrate your wedding, and not worry about what is being captured and what is not.

Ever feel like you're being watched? Maybe a bit of déjà vu? There certainly was no shortage of spooks and scares at ILEA's '6th Sense' event earlier this month! Hosted at the Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, ILEA threw a Halloween party featuring creepy cocktails, snacks, and even a corn-maze! Check out some our photos from ILEA at Chatfield Farms below!

Back in February, we had the pleasure of visiting The Regional. The Regional is a LoHi restaurant that is famous for serving fantastic food sourced from local farms and ranches in Colorado. They also serve seafood sourced from various places in Massachusetts. This past spring they hosted a culinary event dedicated to the No Kid Hungry charity. Come check it out! The Regional Chef and owner Kevin Grossi opened The Regional back in the summer of 2016. He sought to recreate many classic American dishes from all over the country using locally sourced food. He focuses particularly on comfort food. As he describes in an article with Eater Denver, "We're not doing crazy things to our products," Grossi said, "we're bringing the down-home feeling down to Denver." However, after spending two years at their LoHi location in the Avanti F&B, The Regional will be moving to Fort Collins in the early fall. Grossi plans on deepening his regional dishes in the new location: “The Regional has always been about adding a local element to whatever food you consider ‘hometown’ cooking. That will never change. If anything, we’re just moving closer to where so much of it is already growing in our state.” Check out
