Spicen Up Those Group Photos

If you have ever tried to take group photos you know how difficult it could be to get everyone to look alive, let alone smile! I received my weekly newsletter form photojojo and found an interesting technique on how to make everyone in the photo more relaxed, and well just more alive:

Step 1: Set the timer on your camera. Make it short, like ten seconds.

Step 2: Arrange everybody in your shot, making the sure the camera’s zoomed out enough so you won’t cut off anybody’s head.

Step 3: Here’s the tricky part: have everybody that’s going to be in the photo come around behind the camera. (Except Great Aunt Lily who don’t move so good. She can stay.)

Step 4: Ready? Press the button! Now everybody has to run to get into the photo before the timer goes off. Yikes! Hurry!

Neat little trick to get some of the shy folks in the group to lighten up for those group photos. Try out and let me know if it works for you!

'till next time,
