Denver Senior Sunrise | Class of 2026 Senior Photos

There’s something so special about starting senior year with a sunrise. The Class of 2026 showed up before the first bell, rocking their custom overalls and senior jeans, laughing with friends, and soaking in the Colorado morning light — and I had the honor of photographing every moment.

Senior Sunrise isn’t just about the photos. It’s about the feeling of being together one last time before the year ahead — the traditions, the friendships, and the stories that make senior year unforgettable.

My favorite part? Watching everyone’s personalities shine through their decorated jeans and overalls. From sports logos to inside jokes, every detail told a story. These outfits are a rite of passage for Denver seniors — and photographing them makes the memories last long after the paint fades.

Pro tip: If you’ve spent hours designing your jeans or overalls, let’s make sure they get the spotlight they deserve. A mini shoot during your senior year is the perfect way to showcase them.

What’s Next on the Senior Year Bucket List?

If Senior Sunrise is the kickoff, here are a few other must-capture milestones we can photograph this fall:

  • Homecoming Week: Pep rallies, spirit nights, and the big game.

  • Fall Sports + Performances: Football under the lights, marching band halftime shows, volleyball, tennis, and cross country.

  • College Reveal Photos: When you know your next chapter, let’s celebrate it!

  • Best Friend Sessions: Grab your ride-or-die and let’s create photos you’ll both treasure.

  • Fall in Colorado: The golden aspens only last a few weeks — they make an epic backdrop for senior portraits.

Why These Moments Matter

Senior year flies by. It’s not just the cap and gown that matters — it’s the laughter at sunrise, the high fives after a game, the little in-between moments that you’ll want to remember.

I believe in documenting it all, because these photos aren’t just for now — they’re for your family’s story, for twenty years from now when you’re flipping through your album and remembering the people who stood beside you.

If you haven’t booked your senior session yet, there’s still time. Let’s create something bold, emotional, and unapologetically you.
