Even in my day (and I believe that would be around the same time as MC), we got mega numbers of wallet sized prints and we signed the backs of them. I have fun with them now that Facebook exists. I scan the photo and write a comment with what they wrote on they back when old high school friends find me on FB. It's been pretty funny.
We had our pictures done by an outside photographer but there very specific directions about what the head and shoulders shot needed to look like for the yearbook so the special shots weren't in there. We didn't do as many poses and outfit changes as the current generation does but I did have one of those double exposure pictures. It was (and still is) my favorite one that we purchased. One of the pics was a good smiling pic and the other was a very thoughtful/reflective type look.
In my day though, senior pictures were still very formal. I have a hard time with some of these really casual ones. Shots of kids in jeans with bare feet sitting in a park, etc. I just really prefer the formal portrait idea. I'm sure my daughter will want some more casual shots and I may buy one or two for her to have but the majority that I purchase will be formal portraits.
