Back-To-School Photos!

5 Must-Have Back-to-School Photos


1. Candid Camera
My favorite shots are taken in the stolen moments, like the two sisters making faces at each other below. A picture of your child laughing, pouting or packing their backpacks captures small, but precious moments.

2. Ah, Those New Shoes
The one thing I remember always looking forward to was the new school shoes. Help your kids remember those cool "kicks" by taking a picture of them - and try different angles, like the one below.

3.  A Close-up
The cutest picture I have ever seen of my sister is on her first day of kindergarten. It's a close up of her face. She had decided that her bangs were too long, so she cut (more, chopped) them for her personalized back-to-school makeover the night before. Needless to say, the missing front teeth added to the "adorableness" of the shot.

4.  Off to School
Grab a snapshot of your little ones heading off. Barbie backpacks and all!
**Bonus points if you can get the whole outfit in the picture. I can't help but laugh when I see my first-day-of-school pictures. Did I really think those lime green socks matched with that orange jumper?

5.  In Front of the School Bus A really cute shot is an over-the-shoulder look before jumping aboard the school bus. The same shot can be just as cute in front of the family minivan.
