Recently I discovered these intriguing images shot by photographer Christoffer Relander He’s been creating these beautiful multiple exposure images, in-camera on his Nikon D700. Looking into how he did it, I discovered that basically it’s using what appears to be a gimmicky feature that blends two or more images in camera. The effect has been possible […]

![On the 10th day of Christmas my true love gave to me… GROUP PHOTOS THAT DON'T CRINGE!
I'd say in a poll of couples, wedding attendees and wedding photographers, that the highlight of the day is rarely doing the official group pics! And yet, when I see which pics get printed, guess what, they're mainly the group shots!
Happy New Years Eve by the way! I wonder if you've got a load of people coming over to party tonight? And I wonder if you'll take a pic of everyone, and share it?
Group photos are actually one of the most significant time capsules from the day. That everyone shot is a banger to look back at in a decade. Didn't we look hot!? They split up. They're sadly no longer with us. Aww, we should get back in touch with them. And them...
So to me, doing groupshots well, and making them fun is SOOOO important. No cringe, no ick, just creative, quick and slick! Ultimately I want my couple to be at their wedding reception for the maximum possible duration. Their pre-wedding meet is both to train them for quick portraits and to pin down that groupshot list so we can pile through it, in the right order in the fastest time.
And if you've got a dog. Or 2 ponies. GET EM INVOLVED!
It's no surprise that hardly any group pics are shot in portrait format, so there aren't many full slide filling zingers, but here's a mosaic of my fave groupshots from the weddings across 2025!
