New Year!
What do you do, when you have to shoot groups of people? One pro told me that he hires someone to pose and take group shots. He said it was less stressful on his clients.
There are a couple of quick remedies for taking group shots -- avoid long straight lines of eyes and make sure the person that is paying is in focus. Think triangles or clusters of three faces, and you will avoid the eyes-on-a-line problem. Keeping everyone in focus can usually be achieved by using small f-stops, such as f/8 or maybe even f/11, if there is adequate light.
