ENGAGEMENT LOCATIONS

Civic Center Park

Updated onJuly 7, 2021

Home / Engagement Locations / Colorado / Civic Denver Park

Civic Center Park is an engagement location featuring flowers, fountains and an amphitheater near the State Capitol and Denver City and County building.

Most Denver natives have been to the annual Taste of Colorado event at Civic Center Park but chances are you haven’t considered it for your engagement photos. The area provides plenty of background options like colorful flowers and trees to the amphitheatre and a view of Denver’s iconic cash register building. With so many options, it’s an ideal place to begin your downtown Denver engagement session.

Located in the Golden Triangle neighborhood, Civic Center Park is walkable to the State Capitol, Denver Art Museum and 16th Street Mall. It’s only a short drive away from other great Denver engagement locations like the Wynkoop Street Bridge, Larimer Square and Union Station.

The ideal time for photos here is 90 minutes before sunset because the sun falls behind the mountains and City and County building the closer you get to the posted sunset time.

WHY WE LOVE IT

On a quiet, weekday evening Civic Center Park is a hidden gem. It's close to downtown so you can have partial skyline views from the center of the park. It's a great place to begin the session and capture lots of variety before driving to LoDo for other dynamic downtown locations.

“Justin ran the show, made us all feel at ease, and was such a good communicator. When you hire Justin you’re hiring a hell of a lot more than a photographer.”

pricing info


Real weddings don’t fit neatly into four, six or even eight hour packages. Our collections don’t require you to know your timeline months before your wedding.
As a a documentary photographer, I love moments. And it turns out a lot of moments happen before most photographers arrive or after they leave. That’s why all of our collections include up to 10 hours!

We’ll work together to make sure I’m there for all the great moments you expect, and the ones you don’t. You’ll never have to worry about planning your day around the photographer’s schedule.

Wedding collections include:
– full day coverage with two photographers
– online image gallery for viewing and downloading
– full resolution digital images with print release
– carefully crafted timeline and quick turnaround
Fill out the form on the right to check our availability and then we’ll reach out about detailed pricing.
