Graduation photos have come a long way. Back in the day, a lot of us had our photos taken at the local mall or at Sears and thought we were fly doing so. Now, Gen-Z has arrived and are giving us all of the things in their graduation images. They are making sure that when you walk into their grandmothers' living rooms and see their grad photos on the mantel, you'll have to do a double take.

These grads are making sure Black excellence is recorded in all its glory. HBCU students are bringing their A+ style game to these images, props and all. We have to give these young men and women their flowers for executing these dope photo-shoots all while taking their final exams.

Here is a curated selection of some of the flyest grads that we found on the 'gram. Let us know your favorite in the comment section.
