Where you'll shoot
Toss your cap on the deck with the Continental Divide behind you, sit on the flagstone patio by the fire pit, or walk the ponderosa forest for a quieter look. Most sessions use all three without getting back in the car.
Senior portraits and cap-and-gown photos on a private mountain property in Genesee, Colorado, with the snowy Indian Peaks behind you. About 25 minutes from downtown Denver.
Senior portraits for the yearbook, graduation announcements and the family walls. Change outfits, move from the deck to the forest, and get a real variety of looks in one session.
Most seniors shoot late summer through fallCap-and-gown photos for grads from Colorado School of Mines, CU Boulder, DU, the Auraria campus and beyond. Graduation weekend is also a good excuse to get the whole family in one photo.
Most ceremonies are in May, and many schools hold one in DecemberHood, tam and all. Years of work deserve better than a photo in front of the campus sign.
Regalia stands out beautifully against the peaksToss your cap on the deck with the Continental Divide behind you, sit on the flagstone patio by the fire pit, or walk the ponderosa forest for a quieter look. Most sessions use all three without getting back in the car.
For the warmest light, book golden hour, the two hours before sunset. You can check the exact window for your date on our photo sessions page.
Bring your cap, gown, stole, cords or hood, plus a few bobby pins. It can get windy at 7,630 feet, and caps like to fly off before you're ready to toss them.
Family is welcome, and pets too. Bring your own photographer, or ask us for names of photographers who already know the property.
Same rates as every photo session: from $150 an hour, golden hour from $250 an hour, with a two-hour minimum. See all rates.
Tell us when you graduate (or when senior photos are due), and who's coming. We'll come back to you with availability and the light window for that day.
