Tips on Group Photos

Always be prepared when doing group shots.
a. Look around for the right spot. (Perspective!)
b. Have your camera in working order- battery ready, even a back up if neccessary.
c. Use a tripod if possible.
d.Think about the amount of people in your group and how you would like for them to be position. What is your goal?
e. Be aware of lighting. Position them so that they are not facing direct sunlight.

  

2. Add depth to your group shot by positioning them uneven but proportioned. Triangular shapes work great.

3. Take multiple shots and don't be afraid to use your continuous shooting mode.

4. People, even a group by nature usually pose themselves without realizing it, so first give them a minute. and see what happens.
