Where to get passport photos in Denver

The Denver metro has passport-photo counters from downtown out through Lakewood, Aurora, and the Tech Center. Pharmacies and big-box stores handle most of the volume.

  • Walgreens and CVS — same-day photos at most metro locations, about $15-$17
  • Walmart photo centers — the cheapest option at roughly $8
  • Some King Soopers locations offer photo services
  • FedEx Office and The UPS Store — convenient when mailing an application
  • AAA Colorado — discounted photos for members
  • USPS Passport Acceptance Facilities — many Denver post offices take photos and accept applications

The Denver reality: sprawl, snow, and the drive to Aurora

The Denver metro is spread out, and a cross-town errand on I-25 or I-70 — especially in winter — can turn a five-minute photo into an hour of driving.

The region's US Passport Agency, the Colorado Passport Agency, sits in Aurora and handles urgent applications by appointment only. You must arrive with a compliant photo; the agency does not take pictures.

Skip the drive and create a compliant Denver passport photo from your phone with FastPassPhoto. Upload any recent photo and the AI handles the white background, 2x2 crop, and head positioning to US spec in about five minutes.

You get an upload-ready digital file for online renewal plus a print-ready 4x6 sheet, backed by a money-back compliance guarantee.

If you need a printed photo, download the included 4x6 sheet and send it to any Denver Walgreens, CVS, or Walmart for one-hour pickup — usually under a dollar.

For online renewal through MyTravelGov, the digital file is all you need.
