Wedding & Engagements!

Since Denver’s City Park is a convenient and easy location, weddings here are great! Using the park for the ceremony and holding the reception at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science pairs out well! Using the boathouse exterior architecture adds fun elements, too! Is the love of your life the otter to your otter? Then, this is the place to be! Being around the dinosaur fossils and the space odyssey exhibit can create backdrops that really speak about your personalities! The large rooms are open and can host many people to join for the wedding. Choosing this location for your engagement pictures is a good spot with the water, city, and mountain elements in the backdrop.

Maternity Photos

They say that having your maternity photos in mother’s nature is the way to go! We can’t argue that. The wide-open spaces here with the Denver skyline make for fun lines and creative pictures.
