Digital Photography Just the Steps For Dummies

Step by step to shooting, sprucing up and sharing great photos
Get That Group Shot
* Find the best location and try props or natural elements such as trees to arrange people.
* Try a variety of poses. Have some sit and others stand. Stagger people in front and behind.
* Having people get close, tilting their heads toward each other, and even touching one another often makes the shot more intimate and engaging.
* For really large groups, moving higher and shooting down on them enables more people to squeeze into the frame.
* When a group is engaged in an activity, bring elements of it into the shot to add context.
* Use humor to get people to smile naturally. It's the next best thing to spontaneity.
