Welcome to the first issue of Showcase Denver, proudly brought to you by Production Paradise. We present the very best of the city's visual media industry, with listings of local talent available in our dedicated Photo and Film directories.

Denver saw its first boom with the discovery of gold and has continued to carry an eager prospectors mentality into the 21st Century, bringing together creative young minds from all over the world.

Influenced by the city's active approach to life, photographers, production companies and advertising agencies have found a niche using Denver's natural beauty as a backdrop for their innovative interpretations of visual media.
