Location (the city/town): Sapphire Point is located between Breckenridge and the Dillon/Frisco area. It's close to other picturesque spots, perfect for additional photo ops, and close to town if you want to nom on some yummy food or toast at a bar. Lots of my couples will use a nice dinner in the city as a decoy and then say they want to stop at Sapphire Point quickly before dinner - this is a great decoy option in the summer and early fall. In the winter and spring, the paths might be too muddy or snowy for just a “quick photo op.” Consider celebrating at a nearby cabin with a private chef and friends in tow - you can even hire me to capture those special moments, especially if you love documentary photography and want lots of candid moments of your proposal day captured rather than just the proposal itself and the portrait session afterward!

As we gather with our favorite people this holiday season, here are some tips to know when and how to take some quality snapshots.

Perfect Timing For Sunlit Shots:

As the winter sun sets early, around 4:30 p.m. in Denver in December, planning your family outing or photo session for 3:00 or earlier ensures optimal natural lighting.
