Georgetown, Coloado is a historic, former mining mountain town about 45 miles west of Denver and features cute shops and the Georgetown Loop Railroad.
Chances are you’ve driven past Georgetown on your way to go skiing and never given it much thought. However this little town is a great starting location for engagement photos because it’s close to Guanella Pass. You two can walk the streets of this once upon a time mining town that is now home to establishments like the Buckskin Trading Company and Grizzley Creek Gallery on 6th and Rose Street.
A quick drive up Guanella Pass road provides an engagement photo location with aspen trees, winding roads and wilderness.

WHY WE LOVE IT
The quaint downtown is adorable and usually quiet enough that we have it all to ourselves. My fianceé, Amy, and I love to take quick camping trips along Guanella Pass and hike up to Silver Dollar Lake.
