LPT: If you're taking group photos of family or friends, don't stop after the "official" picture. Keep your camera up and take one more photo after everyone thinks you're done, you'll often capture the most natural smiles and expressions of the entire session.
I was taking a group photo of my family recently. After we got the "official" picture, I said, "Okay, we're done," but instead of putting my phone down, I quietly took one more photo. Later, when we were going through all the pictures, that last one was everyone's favorite. No one was forcing a smile anymore. Some people had started laughing, a couple were looking at each other instead of the camera, and everyone just looked much more relaxed and natural. Since then, I've started doing it every time I take group photos. It only takes an extra second, but that "we're done" photo has surprisingly often turned out to be the best one.
