    Great video once again, Sergey.
    I took a life lesson from this session. Keep the people I want in life, directly infront of me, parallel to myself and focus just on them. Everyone else, do not require my focus lol

    Great info! I’ve learned this through failing the hard way a number of times. Now I do this, but I also shoot once around F4-5.6, raise iso to accommodate, switch to manual focus, ask everyone to move and shoot the background at F1.2 so I can merge if necessary

      made standing people get close as possible and lean forward.... make little bigger distance between you and group. or go for little higher f-stop such as 1.4, 1.8 or 2.0
