Quotes, the next best thing to photos

There is no such thing as too many quotes in the yearbook. If you ask open ended questions, you will get quotes that really tell the story. It also gives you the opportunity to get one more student in the yearbook.

When you write your captions/copy, sometimes it is hard to think of something besides, “it was a great season/club/year.” By interviewing the people involved, you will get real stories that really bring the page to life.

Do you want to make your page better? Do you want to make the story personal for the readers? Do you want more than just a group photo and some names in a row? Then quotes are the way to go.

This is YOUR yearbook. Catch what YOU and YOUR classmates are thinking, feeling saying. Make those into quotes that add new depth and color to the 'same old-same old' boring page. You will really catch your audience. Next to photos, kids love seeing their own words in print.
