Stand in a row according to the posture analysis of the group

The most common way to take a group photo is to queue up, such as our graduation photo. This method is relatively inflexible. We can make some gestures, and the most important thing is to keep our movements consistent.

Stand on the diagonal

This method requires the group to stand diagonally and not cover people's faces. Photographers can take pictures through the diagonal principle, giving people a sense of extension. Of course, this method needs a good reference as the background.

Stand in an arc

In this way, short people need to stand on both sides and tall people need to stand in the middle, which can narrow the height gap between tall people and short people, make the picture more harmonious and can accommodate many people.

Stand in multiple rows

This method is very common. Generally, it is divided into sitting posture, semi-squatting posture and standing posture according to height, and then the person in front can't stop the face of the person behind. In addition, the distance between the front row and the back row is about half a shoulder.

Standing on the steps, the latter sitting on the steps.

This way requires everyone to stand in the latter, sit on the steps, stand in the air and act in unison.

Take a high angle/crane lens

Everyone poses according to their position. If possible, you can shoot with a drone. If not, you can find a commanding height to shoot. This is a great effect.

Taste in tune

If the number of people is not particularly large, everyone can do an action, such as lying in the position as mentioned above, then shooting, and hand-drawing at the back, which is also very interesting.
