Photo stories As a yearbook photographer, your job is to tell the story through your camera’s lens. Take wide, medium and close-up shots. Remember to take horizontal and vertical photos. Brainstorm with your team to plan how you will cover all aspects of the story. On location, make sure you capture the images you anticipated seeing, but don’t be afraid to take unassigned photos when you see a moment that helps tell the visual story.

Yearbook photojournalists must cover all aspects of the story. To cover the story thoroughly, remember to show what happened before, during and after the event. Take a variety of images featuring as many of the students who participated as possible.
