Master Portrait Artist, Tim Kelly, shares one of the ways you can produce the highest quality large group portraits with great efficiency. Many photographers are overwhelmed by these assignments, but even if you're on location, you can still employ these techniques and your groups will be more thoughtfully posed than ever before.
Don't be afraid when these opportunities come up. Break the assignment down into a workable plan that can be executed in SMALLER steps. You'll build a wonderful big group if you think of it as multiple small groups! Good luck.

This episode was produced largely while we were in isolation (mandatory stay home order) in March/April 2020. We greatly look forward to producing new episodes just as soon as we have our crew back in the studio.

I think it's great that you accomplished, these photographs, but even greater than your first response was to share it with all of us. Thank you.

AMAZING work and thanks for sharing this technique which I have used for corporate photography and I would like to try this on family portraits like the ones you do. I suggest every photographer to get good at Photoshop... it is not your enemy, it is a tool that will allow you to make more money for your work.
