Honeymoon session · Denver
In short
Honeymoon session in Denver starts at $395: 90 min on location with a photographer who works in Denver, and 50 edited photos delivered to a private gallery within 5 business days.
Why choose Honeymoon session in Denver?
A honeymoon photoshoot in Denver is a 90-minute sunrise or sunset session for newlyweds at two locations, one of them away from where the couple is staying, delivering 50 retouched photographs, priced from $395. Honeymooners who choose Colorado rarely stay in Denver itself. Most base themselves in Estes Park, a 90-minute drive from downtown at the east entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park, or in a mountain cabin in the foothills. The session travels to them, and the planning question becomes which park road needs a reservation at the hour of the light.
Worth knowing about Denver
In 2026 the Bear Lake Road corridor of Rocky Mountain National Park, where Sprague Lake sits, requires a Timed Entry+ reservation from 5am to 6pm daily between May 22 and October 18. A summer sunrise honeymoon session there either enters before 5am or holds a reservation, released on the first of the prior month at 8am MDT, with about 40 percent more released at 7pm the night before. The rest of the park needs a reservation only from 9am to 2pm.

FAQ — Honeymoon session in Denver
Do we need a reservation for a sunrise honeymoon shoot in Rocky Mountain National Park?
For the Bear Lake Road corridor, yes, unless the couple enters before 5am: Rocky Mountain National Park requires a Timed Entry+ reservation there from 5am to 6pm between May 22 and October 18, 2026. Upper Beaver Meadows and the rest of the park need a reservation only from 9am to 2pm, so a sunrise honeymoon session there needs none.
Where do Denver honeymoon photo sessions usually take place?
Close to where the couple is staying, which for a Colorado honeymoon is usually Estes Park or a foothills cabin rather than downtown Denver. The 90-minute honeymoon session uses one location near the lodging and one in the landscape, timed to sunrise or sunset, and the photographer travels to the couple.
