If Facebook and Pinterest are any indication, it is back to school time! I always have grand plans of taking beautiful pictures on the first day of school, but let’s be honest – things are way too crazy! My best tip for back to school photos is to schedule a few minutes to take some “official” pictures the night before and then just grab some snapshots on the actual day of school. I think this is a way to create less stress for yourself as a photographer and to enjoy their big day.
I looked up some sweet back to school photoshoot ideas in case you want to do something a bit more complicated than a traditional backpack/child photo. Enjoy!

If your kids are a bit older, how about this fun idea found here.
And here is my own big 3rd grader. I’ll let you in on a little secret – balancing apples and books on top of your head is not nearly as easy as the photos make it look. :)
