Yearbook Page Idea: Make It a Throwback with ’80′s Day

A page from a yearbook titled, "80's Day," featuring pictures of students dressed up in '80's attire.Looking for a creative yearbook page idea? Get creative with senior / spirit week, and you’ll have some good material to work with. You know how senior / spirit week works. You come up with a theme for each day, and the students dress up for school according to that theme.

One of my favorite pages was “80′s Day.” This comes from our 2010 yearbook. The students dressed up in what they felt was 1980′s style clothing. We set up a studio in the amphitheater, took some pictures, and we had more than enough to make a great page. We were also able to sell some of the prints for a fundraiser.

The part I loved about this page idea was how the students interpreted “80′s Day.” One kid went for a Fresh Prince type of look, while another group tried to channel Run DMC. Some of the girls went with big hair, and bright colors were everywhere. It may not have looked exactly like the eighties… but the pictures are fun nonetheless.

So if you’re in search of new and different yearbook page ideas, get with your senior advisor and put together a spirit week for your senior class. Every day is potentially another page or another spread that you can have in your yearbook.

About Digital Photography How To

Digital Photography How To is intended to be a guide to people learning how to use their digital SLR cameras. Three years ago, I had never picked up a camera; now, I produce a yearbook every year and I moonlight as a professional photographer.

I write this website to share what I've learned in that time. The topics will range from truly beginners topics, to tutorials for post processing, to resources for yearbook and graphic design, to thoughts on transitioning from a hobbyist to a professional.
