To the new fabulous upper school editors:


 * TAKE ATTENDANCE WHEN TAKING ADVISORY PHOTOS!!!!!
 * Advisors tend to forget about one advisee.
 * Make it easier for yourself so you don't have to take the same advisory's picture multiple times


 * Take the advisory pictures as early as possible
 * You can never anticipate when kids won't be there, and there's only one time a week to do it (Tuesdays after homeroom), and other things always get in the way (blood-drive, special collections, college work-days, etc...). You can always take candids, but you can't always take advisory pictures


 * Vary the look of the advisory photos.
 * Not every picture has to be two rows of people standing in front of a chalkboard.


 * Take the time to get good pictures of people having fun with their friends, maybe ones where they don't know they're being photographed - that's the definition of a candid after all.
 * When gathering candids for your pages, try not to use pictures of two kids who don't ever talk to each other standing three feet away from each other against a wall looking awkward.


 * Balance the page.
 * Try your hardest not to have 78 pictures of Betty and Shirley and only one picture of Irwin. Irwin is cute too - we want to see his face.
 * Every time you use a candid of someone write the page number next to his or her name on the class list.


 * Don't forget headers and footers.
