Class of 2026 Yearbook Photo Information
Parents of the Class of 2026
Congratulations! It’s time to start marking the milestones of your student’s senior year, which means it is time to start thinking about their senior yearbook photo in the 2026 Black & Gold yearbook.
If you’ve had a senior student before, you know that many families take senior photos the summer before their senior year of high school. The editorial board of the Black & Gold yearbook is still committed to ensuring every student has the opportunity for a free, professional photo in the yearbook. As such, we will continue to work with two photography studios to manage the nearly 600 senior portraits for the panel pages in the 2026 volume of the yearbook -- Keepsake Photography and Monty Nuss Photography. You must have your photo taken by one of these photographers for your portrait to be in the book.
This exclusive photographer process is for senior yearbook photos only. You are still able to use personal photos of your choice for all other purposes – senior tribute ads, graduation announcements, etc. All senior photos will be taken by one of the two photography studios selected through the editorial board’s RFP process -Monty Nuss Photography or Keepsake Photography. Each studio provides excellent photography for your senior, and has created specific opportunities for Rock Canyon seniors.
Seniors who do not schedule an appointment at the Keepsake or Monty Nuss studios will need to attend one of the FREE yearbook days at the school in August and September in order to ensure they will be included in the 2026 yearbook. Sign-ups will be made available to seniors at the start of the 2025-2026 school year in August.
In the meantime, both studios have created opportunities for families to begin getting senior portraits taken for the 2026 Black & Gold yearbook. Please use the links below to see options from Keepsake and Monty Nuss for RCHS seniors. PDFs of each studio's Senior Magazine will also be linked on the school website.

Finally, we offer senior tribute ads for purchase for any family who is interested. We will provide an updated link to information about purchasing a senior tribute ad for your 2026 senior through The Yearbook Company before August. They will open the site for orders mid-July, but can take questions at TheYearbookCompany.com until that time. Early-bird deadline is Oct. 5, so there is plenty of time to gather content for your senior’s ad.
We look forward to seeing your senior in the 2026 Black & Gold yearbook!
