In various beautiful souvenir clothes or their academic costumes, graduates posed before cameras. They hoped that pictures could record their precious friendships and memories as well as their beauties.

Chen Yong, a photographer, said that it was not the first time that he took graduation pictures for university graduates in Chongqing.

“Nowadays, graduates are so creative that our directions are unnecessary. They are truly original,” said Chen Yong. He also added that university graduates hoped to record their precious days of youth by adding their own ideas to the graduation pictures, making them more meaningful.
