Brings back memories when I did film weddings before IPhones. Family and friends would line up o the left and right of me and when they heard my shutter click, a thunder of shutters started going.

When I did weddings I would get that sometimes, so I quickly adapted to avoid this and said out loud so all could hear, "I'm just going to set something up to check the lighting but this won't be the final shot. Once I check this I will set you up for the finished pose". Then I would take that perfect shot, say "hang on a sec. while I check that" and then rearrange them into a worse pose and then say, "I think we got that, let's move on."

The other thing was to have it all set up, as for composition, and then do final arranging of heads while I stood in the way of other's shots of the group and then when it was just right, use a remote button to release the shutter while I stay in the way of guests shots but out of the way of my camera, then disassemble the group.

That's why I never did weddings. That was funny, funny funny!

There is a lot of truth in that video - of which I can totally relate!
