They all casually pose, some on the floor, others with arms on others shoulders and teachers still in the middle with children gathered round them.
Taken in groups of 5/6 then put together in a line.
My DD's school has just had one similar... all in a line, some leaning on the others shoulders, some with their arms around the others shoulders, teachers sitting on the floor with some children sitting on their laps and other children laying on the floor etc.. really casual and some kids are laughing on it (my dd included) and its so much nicer than the individual blue background ones.
I highly rate it!
Edited to say, our photo's say name of school and class of 2010 on the bottom... ours aren't ward henry though0 -

This has just reminded me about my Daughters school class photos, they do it 'traditional' style but one of the teachers/parents/assistants takes the pics rather than a company and then they sell them at the school summer fair for about £3.50, good idea for fundraising if anyone is on the PTA and wants to suggest the idea at their school.MFW Start Sep 07 £79484, Now £587740

This was discussed on Jeremy Vine (R2). No consensus was reached. Younger parents i.e. below 35 yo favoured this newer format and older parents the more traditional all school/year/class photograph, brushed hair and smart uniform approach. Think you can probably listen to the program again via iplayer0

I caught bits on iplayer and all I heard was negative comments.
I saw my friends photo last year and loved it and after listening to Mr Vine thought I was in the minority. Hence the question!Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

They do look great but neither me nor my daughter was interested in buying one. They came in a large frame to go on the wall and couldn't really see the appeal of having other peoples kids on display in my living room. Its probably just me though .0

I have to say I HATE these type of photos! I work in a primary school and ours school has done them the informal way for the past couple of years, and again the feedback is mixed.
I dont really get it , why would you want children holding umberellas or cheerleaders pompoms? And as a member of staff I had to half lie on the floor propped up on one elbow with a child grinning in my ear! Awful stuff, I much prefer the old style pic with 3 rows of children and the teacher in the middle! The photographer has had to come back both years and retake all 14 classes photos as they were so bad the first time round, the staff pic is awful too, we all look different sizes and some peoples heads are twice the size of the person next to them, due to the editing of putting together different groups shot seperately.
Maybe I am just old-fashioned!0 -
