Venues We’ve Shot — Denver Event Photography Locations

Denver & Colorado Venues Where We’ve Photographed Events

Over 17 years and thousands of events, From the Hip Photo has built deep familiarity with virtually every major event venue in the Denver metro area and across Colorado. We know the lighting quirks, the best angles, the load-in logistics, and the little details that make each space unique. That kind of institutional knowledge means fewer surprises on event day and better photos for you.

Colorado Convention Center

Denver’s flagship convention facility and the venue where we’ve logged more hours than anywhere else. From massive trade show floors to intimate breakout rooms, the Bellco Theatre stage to the outdoor terrace with mountain views — we know every corner of this building. We’ve shot multi-day medical conferences, technology summits, industry expos, and award ceremonies here for clients including Arrow Electronics, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, AASLD, and Psychonomic Society. The CCC’s varied lighting environments (harsh fluorescents in the exhibit hall, dramatic stage lighting in the ballrooms, gorgeous natural light in the atrium) require a photographer who can adapt on the fly — and that’s exactly what our team does.

Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center

The Gaylord Rockies in Aurora is one of Colorado’s premier convention resorts, combining 507,000 square feet of meeting space with a full-service resort experience. We’ve photographed corporate retreats, national conferences, and gala events throughout the property — from the Grand Lodge ballroom to the outdoor terrace overlooking the Rocky Mountains. The resort’s dramatic architecture and natural-light atriums create stunning backdrops, and we’ve developed strong relationships with the Gaylord’s event coordination team.

Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center

Connected directly to the Convention Center, the Hyatt Regency is a natural overflow venue for large conferences and a popular choice for corporate dinners, receptions, and breakout events. We’ve photographed award ceremonies, networking events, and multi-day conferences in the Hyatt’s ballrooms and meeting spaces. The rooftop Peaks Lounge offers one of Denver’s best skyline views for cocktail hour photography.

Sheraton Denver Downtown

Another Convention Center-adjacent hotel with significant meeting space. We’ve covered events ranging from corporate luncheons to full-day conferences in the Sheraton’s ballrooms. The grand staircase and lobby areas provide excellent candid photo opportunities during event arrivals and breaks.

Denver Union Station

The beautifully restored Union Station is one of Denver’s most photogenic venues — period. The Great Hall’s soaring ceilings, vintage chandeliers, and warm wood tones create an atmosphere that photographs brilliantly. We’ve shot corporate events, product launches, and holiday parties throughout the station and in the adjacent Cooper Lounge.

The Cable Center

Located on the University of Denver campus, the Cable Center is a sleek, modern event space with excellent natural light and clean architectural lines. It’s a popular choice for tech industry events, innovation summits, and professional development conferences. We’ve photographed events here ranging from intimate panel discussions to 300-person receptions.

Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum

There’s nothing quite like hosting an event surrounded by vintage aircraft and space artifacts. Wings Over the Rockies in the former Lowry Air Force Base hangar is one of Denver’s most unique event spaces, and the dramatic scale of the hangar creates incredible wide-angle photography opportunities. We’ve shot galas, corporate celebrations, and fundraisers in this one-of-a-kind space.

Denver Botanic Gardens

For outdoor events and garden receptions, Denver Botanic Gardens offers some of the most beautiful natural backdrops in the city. The combination of curated gardens, water features, and mountain views makes every photo look effortless. We’ve photographed nonprofit galas, corporate cocktail events, and summer celebrations throughout the Gardens’ indoor and outdoor spaces.

Red Rocks Amphitheatre & Park

One of the most iconic venues in the world — and yes, we’ve photographed events there. From corporate outings in the Trading Post area to large-scale conferences that include Red Rocks excursions, we know how to capture the dramatic geology and sweeping views that make this venue legendary. We built specific Red Rocks add-on packages for clients like Inspira Financial who wanted to extend their conference experience beyond the convention center.

Additional Venues We Know Well

We’ve also photographed events at the Denver Marriott Tech Center, the Renaissance Denver Downtown, The Curtis Hotel, the Westin Denver International Airport, the Inverness Hotel and Conference Center, Ellie Caulkins Opera House, the Denver Art Museum, the History Colorado Center, Moss Denver, Space Gallery, the McNichols Building, and dozens of other venues throughout the Front Range. If you’re hosting an event at a venue in Colorado, chances are we’ve already shot there.
