So you want to be a photographer: Transform your skills and build a profitable photography business PHOTO 043: Group Hug: How to direct, pose and light group photos
You take them at weddings, schools, family gatherings, cast shots, staff photos and more. We’re talking about groups photos. But how do you ensure your group shots don’t look like a lineup of criminals or a boring cluster of people?
In this episode, Gina and Valerie discuss a step-by-step process on how to create dynamic groups shots that really shine. Gina reveals her “go to” poses for ensemble shots such as the “90120”, the “Reservoir Dogs”, the “Cartier-Bresson”, the lineup and the “just act casual”. We discuss how you can direct a group, whether there are 5 or 50 people, how to coordinate everyone, how to ensure no one is closing their eyes and how to ensure you image is balanced. And much more!
