Beginning of Grade 10

I must document the start of my daughter's Grade 10 year. She started yesterday but directly from the pool to school so there was no photo op. I made her pose today.

[Osia Strasner]

Wonderful portrait!! Love all the fall colors in your yard! And, she does look a lot like you, doesn't she? Lovely young woman!

[Jenn]

I LOVE that seat!!

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

Great that you document these steps in life! I like the 'steps' going up and the patterns on the wall. She's beautiful, your daughter!

[Maggiemae]

I would expect Grade 10 would be pretty senior? She looks happy about it.

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Vee]

Fabulous! I've been seeing a lot of these types of photos and really wish the concept was around while my kids were in school :)

[Colin Fawsett]

A super capture.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Photos like this are so priceless as it's no time at all before they're done with school and off on their own. Both you and her will appreciate the time taken to capture this moment. (She looks happy to have complied.)

[Melanie Rivers]

This is nice...she's very cute too! :-)

[Beryl Lloyd]

A beautiful young lady and a gorgeous shot -- she looks so happy !!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Sweet shot. I hope she enjoys this year at school.

[Lesley Chisholm]

Yay!! Finally. I'm so glad they are back. Have you done one like this every year?

[Leslie]

Love the made her pose. LOL she looks happy though and it's a lovely shot

[KWind]

@kiwichick Every year I take some kind of back to school shot. This is the first time I've had her sit down too. Here's last years: http://365project.org/kwind/365/2013-09-04

Nice memory! Love the bench too! Did you make it?

[👑 AnaZad]

Great capture of your beautiful daughter. I like that the famous wooden tree is behind.

[Peter Dulis]

Congrats .....:)

[KWind]

@eyeamlisa We bought the bench. It's four pieces that fit together. It's super heavy.

[Taffy]

Great memory shot!

[Ukandie!]

Great shot, I wish I had done something like this.

[Dione Giorgio]

Lovely composition. Beautiful shot and you have a pretty daughter. Congratulations to her.

[Maggie]

This will be a valuable addition to the family album - what a lovely looking girl she is. Super shot.

[Kathy]

Fantastic composition and what a beautiful girl!! Ahhhh, to be back in 10th grade!!! Love this capture and she will too!
FAV!

[Annika]

very cool set up - I envy you guys for always taking Pictures related to School. Over here noone does that. Oh well ... we dont even have proms and stuff like that. So thumbs up :)

[Andrew]

what a wonderful idea!

[Rachel]

A really nice idea. I always make my kids pose outside the school, and they hate it!

[Joyce]

Lovely portrait and a great idea.

[Bec]

Lovely idea - great portrait.. Have you done this for each year?

[Joan Robillard]

I like the sign because then you don't argue latter whether it was grade 10 or 11. LOL Beautiful young lady.

[Lindy]

Be finished in no time and out in the world.

[Pete Roberts]

What a lovely shot - one for the album definitely

[James_Nicholas]

and a poser too!

[Babs]

Lovely shot and a wonderful way to record the start of Grade 10. Love the driftwood sculpture in the background.
I am on catch up today after my has been here for a few days. Not able to comment on all the photos I have missed but I have looked at them.

[Princess Fairlane]

She's very pretty... Lovely portrait of her for the documentation. The props and everything on it are so cute :)

[Tremerryn]

A lovely portrait and looks so happy going to school.

[Margaret Brown]

A lovely photo to remind you how fast they grow up! Love the seat too!

[Rachel]

Brilliant portrait, love it!

[Simply Amanda]

Gosh she looks so much like her mama. Great shot. Love your hubbies trees.

[tony gig]

Wonderful capture K.

[Judith Greenwood]

She's a great sport! Wish mine would pose. Love your 'tree' - that's great!

[Karen Mitchell]

I love the idea of having first day of school shots!

[Nancy]

What a great way to remember a special day

[Sheralee S]

What a lovely shot as a keeper! So cute! Love the seat and sculpture.

[Rosie Kerr]

Lovely shot... I make the kids hold up fingers for their grade. Once we got past 10th grade, I hung signs around their necks (much to their sincere delight). Your solution is much more elegant. :)

[KWind]

@rosiekerr We've done fingers before too! I borrowed this old chalkboard from school so we've done it this way the last couple of years. I figured it would show the progression of their printing. I love your "hung signs around their necks" remark. It made me laugh. I can only imagine the comments and faces your children made in protest.

[Keeshi]

She reminds me of my daughter. I haven't been so methodical, and she's already an 11th grader. Sigh.

[J A Byrdlip]

so how long is the "oh, mom" drawn out when you hand the kids the sign with the grade on it? And yes, some day they will enjoy the photos and have a good laugh over them, especially if they do, indeed, "oh mom" you :-)
