15 Groomsmen Photos You Need to Take on Your Wedding Day
PHOTO BY IVASH STUDIO
Wedding photographers love snapping shots of dapper grooms with their groomsmen on the big day. And while groomsmen typically like to keep photo sessions short and sweet, photographer Comfort Witcher says capturing high-quality groomsmen photos isn’t just doable—it’s quick and easy. She captures the creative and classic shots she needs, then lets the groomsmen go off to enjoy the festivities.
Meet the Expert
Comfort Witcher is the owner and head wedding photographer at Comfort Photography based in Columbus, OH.
Witcher plans her groomsmen photos well before the wedding day. “Beforehand, I ask about the wedding party in general,” she says. “Knowing their personalities can help me anticipate what poses will work, and it lets me get creative while staying true to the couple. It’s important for me to capture the authentic spirit of the day.”
A question groomsmen ask Witcher all the time? What to do with their hands. Witcher gets this conversation out of the way early in the day—either during groom prep or at the beginning of the groomsmen photo session. And, like most photographers, she’ll correct groomsmen if they look silly or uncomfortable as she’s photographing.
Her recommendations include crossing hands in front, crossing them in back, or putting them in pockets.
How to Pose for Wedding Photos, According to a Wedding Photographer
Witcher’s groomsmen photo shot list varies from couple to couple, but she does have a few can’t-miss staples. During groom prep, this includes tying ties and helping the groom with his tie or cuff links. This part of the day is more candid and provides the photographer with a lot of flexibility depending on the groomsmen style choices.
She takes the majority of groomsmen photos pre-ceremony—which only takes about 10 to 15 minutes. This includes group and individual photos with each groomsman and the groom. She’ll also capture creative group shots, such as congratulatory poses (where the groomsmen give kudos to the groom) and walking shots with groomsmen in formation.
Of course, Witcher says this hardly scratches the surface of groomsmen photos. Here’s a collection of groomsmen photo ideas to get those wheels turning.

Just Hanging Out

The beginning of the day for groomsmen is pretty simple: eat breakfast, grab a beer, and hang out. While it may not be super fancy, this is a great time for photographers to capture the spirit of the groomsmen.

Tying the Bow Tie
PHOTO BY CHI-CHI ARI PHOTOGRAPHY
One of the sweetest groom-prep photos is the groomsmen helping the groom tie his tie or bow tie. While it may be posed, the groomsmen never look at the camera for this one. This is a special moment the photographers love watching unfold as they click away.

The Fastening Train

Perfect for groomsmen wearing vests, this is a creative photo where one groomsman is helping another secure his vest. It becomes a “train” when the groomsman behind that groomsman is fastening, and so on.

The Personality Pic

One of Witcher’s favorite parts of photography is capturing the spirit of the wedding day, and few times does that come out more than groomsmen photos. Knowing about the couple’s personality ahead of time helps her cue the groomsmen up for photos that show who they, and the couple, truly are.

The Serious Photo

Some photographs, like the straight-faced serious photo, make the groomsmen look extra handsome. The underlying tone of this shot is lighthearted and fun—as most wedding photos are.

Showing Off Matching Accessories

It's common for the groomsmen to sport the same accessory on the wedding day, which oftentimes is a gift from the groom. A cheeky pair of socks or cufflinks, for example, are some of the unique details photographers love to capture.

The V Formation

For utmost symmetry, photographers will put groomsmen in a V formation with the groom positioned front and center as the point. This pose works particularly well when photogenic stairs are readily available.

The Hands-in-Pocket Stance

For groomsmen worried about where to put their hands, the hands-in-pocket stance is a great option.
Photographers will instruct the bridal party on what to do with their hands, and will often try to get a few photographs where groomsmen place their hands in pockets in unison.

The Final Touches
PHOTO BY KATHERINE ANN ROSE
Before the first look or heading off to the ceremony, the groomsmen are responsible for making sure the groom looks their best. This is one of the photographer’s favorite moments to snap away because those “final touches” photos are priceless.

Heading to the Ceremony

When it’s time to get hitched, photographers love capturing groomsmen en route to the altar. This photo depends largely on the prep space and venue, but it’s often something simple and candid like walking down the stairs or entering the church.

Walking Down the Aisle

Brides never get to see groomsmen walking down the aisle, so a photograph of this wedding-day milestone is a must.
Photographers capture this moment candidly and can go for close-up shots or wider angles to take in the full scene.

The 17 Best Gifts for Groomsmen That Are Both Practical and Fun
14 Groomsmen Posing Cues From Wedding Photographers (Updated)
The art of posing is developed through trial and error, repetition, and dedicated study.
Photographers are all handed a similar tool and asked to create their own unique representation of how they see the world. What characterizes a photographer’s work and what sets it apart is their imagination and execution, creating an inspired idea from an expansive library of knowledge, and years of diligent practice.
We recently launched our latest workshop, Photographing the Groom, in which we teach our approach to capturing incredible images of the groom and his groomsmen. While the 9-hour course is comprehensive, it’s important to remember that there are many ways to achieve great results.
So we’ve asked award-winning wedding photographers, each with their different niches & skills, to help provide some insight when it comes to eliciting dynamic, hilarious, and editorial poses from your groom & groomsmen.
1. Click, Strike a Pose
Southern California based photographer and cinematographer, Ning Wong, tells the guys, “Each time I yell ‘CLICK!’ they have to change their pose.
Think of it like you’re in a photo booth. I let them know that they should never pose the same as the person next to you, and the more ridiculous looking, the better. Usually the poses are pretty tame at first, but then they get a crazier over time.”
2. Back-Lighting for Dramatic Effect
“Maybe it’s because I also like edgy photos with a little more contrast where a lot of times brides will want the more softer look, so I just find the best light, use flash, or just have the guys be guys, and the fun photos should come naturally” says Nathan Nowack. Back lighting is the perfect technique for those moody cigar shots, giving the subjects just enough separation while illuminating the smoke.

“A lot of groomsmen will just leave their hands hanging at their sides which looks posed and just awkward.
I have 4 basic hand positions I use. Hands in the pockets, one hand in a pocket, arms crossed, and hands on the lapel which I use for the groom a lot. Guys also tend to stand very flat footed and stiff. So I will always have them put all their weight onto one foot. It naturally relaxes their shoulders and gives them a more relaxed look.”
JD Land (Website/Instagram)
4. Channel your inner ________
Sometimes it just takes a little persuasion for grooms to step outside their comfort zone. Ask them to channel their inner gangster, superhero, GQ model, whatever else inspires them to get camera ready.
Image by Jeremy Ellsworth (Website/Instagram)Dramatic lighting can help set the scene, like this shot from Dan Dalstra:
Image by Dan Dalstra (Website/Instagram/Wedding Maps Profile)5. “Butts to nuts”
Directions like “go nuts to butts” or Mike Allebach’s choice of “balltap the guy next to you” might help elicit a genuine laugh out of the guys and will most likely break the ice between the photographer and subject.
Getting group portraits of candid laughter is always a crowd-pleaser so always be sure to have a couple of phrases like this that might do the trick.
6. Harass/embarrass the groom
Remember that the friends and family the groom has chosen to surround him on his wedding day know him better than most. Ashley Fisher suggests to simply say, “You have thirty seconds to physically and verbally harass the groom,” and watch as a rowdy group of men tickle and fondle their groom.

Mike Allebach has his group walk as if they were straight out of have Quentin Tarantino’s film Reservoir Dogs, one of the easiest poses to execute.
Image by Mike Allebach (Website/Instagram)Image by Dan Dalstra (Website/Instagram)8. Tell a funny Story
Chad DiBlasio asks, “Who’s known the groom the longest?” and then asks them to tell a story, preferably embarrassing, about the groom.
This is an easy way to involve everyone and increase interaction, and Jeremy Ellsworth suggests having the guys call out the token funny guy to get them all laughing. “That either causes an awkward silence followed by laughter or and insult towards the funny guy, followed by laughter.”
9. Single out the groom
It is, after all, the groom’s big day, so singling him out amongst his groomsmen and giving him a little solo love with a dramatic lighting setup is one of Pye Jirsa’s favorite techniques.
An image from our Photographing the Groom Workshop!Image by Dan Dalstra (Website/Instagram)Shannon Cronin separates the groom from the rest of the guys just for one shot and “usually has the bride or someone off to the side to make him laugh.”

One of the perks of being a wedding photographer is the variety of venues we have at our disposal.
Utilize architectural elements of buildings, bars, and rooms to mold and shape your photograph into something unique.
“I try to pose them on stairs or something with layers. Then I tell them to talk to each other and tell stories about the groom and relax a bit. I pretend to load film so they start to feel comfortable. Then it always seems to just click and that’s when I shoot. It creates a nice, fun, relaxed image” says Christina Blanarovich:

Since you are spending a majority of your time getting to know the guys throughout the wedding day, gauge their personalities and then decide whether or not to try certain looks on them. If there’s time, Ning Wong gives the bouquets to the boys and tells them to do their best bridesmaid impression. This is a great way to get them to goof around and loosen up.

Arm WrestlePut a bunch of men in a room together and give them something to compete over, and you are sure to get some awesome action shots.
Image by Mike Allebach (Website/Instagram)13. Play Poker
Although this shot takes a bit of planning, if your groom is a huge poker fan this could be a home-run image. The key to this shot, similar to the tip above, is to have the men interact with one another and really get caught up in the competition.

Look at me like you’re pissed off because because I am taking too long doing this photoshoot.” – Kenny Kim (Website/Instagram)
How to pose for a wedding photo shoot: 50 ideas
To get good at wedding pictures, you should rehearse poses for a wedding photo shoot in advance. Wedding tells how to plan a shoot and find the best angles.
Bride and groom getting ready
A wedding photo album usually starts with the bride and groom getting ready in the morning.
To make the photo session stylish and modern, prepare everything you need in the evening: shoes, veil, clothes, flowers and props. When shooting the morning of the bride, every detail is of great importance. Therefore, you should pre-select a set of beautiful underwear, a snow-white bathrobe and do makeup before the arrival of the photographer. Decide who will be in the frame during the morning preparations. Do you want the bridesmaids and mother of the bride to participate in it? Then be sure to think about how you will pose. Here are the poses for the bride and her friends offered by photographers:
- The bride examines her wedding dress.
- A girl can hold a cup of coffee in her hand and look out the window.
- The bride looks into the lens through the veil.
- Bridesmaids help the bride do her hair and make-up.
- The bride poses while sitting on the bed in beautiful lingerie and a veil.
- Hugs with the bridesmaids.
- The mother of the bride carefully straightens her daughter's dress.
- The bride gracefully puts on a garter or stockings.
- A girl looks in the mirror and adjusts her make-up.
You can't do without accessories at the groom's photo session. The best photos will be those where the groom puts on a tie, cufflinks, watches. If there is a chair in the room, be sure to use it. The groom can sit imposingly in a chair or lean forward slightly, holding his hands in front of him. You can focus on the groom's hands, one of which will contain a box of rings. And in a group photo with friends, try to create a relaxed atmosphere. The most striking will be shots in which the groom and friends laugh, applaud, slap each other on the shoulder and actively gesticulate.
First meeting
The meeting of the bride and groom is always very touching. At this moment, you will be overwhelmed with emotions, someone may even burst into tears.
Therefore, the meeting scene is difficult to rehearse in advance. However, there are several universal poses for such shooting. Ask the photographer to take a picture a few minutes before the first meeting. The bride and groom at this time can stand on opposite sides of the door or house. Photos look good in which the couple stands with their backs to each other, and then turns and hugs.
Another important gesture symbolizing a trusting and warm relationship in a couple is a kiss on the forehead. At this moment, it is better for the bride to close her eyes and lower her head slightly. So the photo will turn out even more penetrating. If the bride is wearing a veil on the day of the shoot, you can take a picture of the groom lifting it up and smiling. Also successful will be the shot when the groom hugs the bride around the waist and kisses her.
Registration
Wherever registration takes place, it is important to capture this moment.
Pro photographer tip: Look into each other's eyes, be yourself, enjoy the moment. Then the photos will turn out alive and sensual. At the exit registration, be sure to pay attention to the bride before going to the altar. To demonstrate her figure, it is worth taking a full-length profile photo. Important: the posture of the bride must be impeccable. Hold hands during the wedding photo shoot. After you become husband and wife, have a photographer take close-up shots of your rings. And, of course, kissing at the altar is the best pose for a wedding photo shoot during registration.
A walk
A walk is an essential part of a wedding. Not only because the guests and the couple need to take a break before the party. During the walk, you will have a great opportunity to take authentic photos against the backdrop of nature or the city landscape. Photographers advise you to look ahead for ideas for inspiration and think about what props you will use.
Remember that they must match the concept of the wedding. For example, for a rustic photo shoot, you can prepare picnic items: a basket, beautiful dishes, a blanket and pillows. At a romantic wedding, arrange a photo session with a bicycle or in a boat if the event takes place near the water. Among the accessories that are also suitable for shooting: hats, umbrellas, bright rubber boots, suitcases, musical instruments. And to feel confident, try the following poses for a wedding photo shoot:
- The groom is circling the bride in his arms.
- The bride and groom sit on the floor or bench, leaning against each other.
- Photo of the bride and groom walking in an embrace, from the back.
- You can take off your shoes and run a little.
- The groom lies on the bride's lap or vice versa.
- The groom is on one knee and holding the bride's hand, looking into her eyes.
- The bride kisses the groom, raising one leg so that the shoe can be seen.
- The groom presses the bride to him with his back and looks at her, and the girl looks into the lens.
- A couple holding hands while walking in a garden, field or city.
Declaration of love
Of course, the choice of position largely depends on the moment. Frames with unique emotions are often obtained during wedding vows. Do not sit at the table while the groom confesses his love to you. Successful poses for wedding photography during toasts and vows: the bride and groom stand facing each other, beautifully raise their glasses and kiss gently. If you exchange vows at the archway, then after the speech, the groom can tilt the bride and kiss. Yes, just like in a Hollywood movie. At this moment, the bride should pass the bouquet to her girlfriend and wrap her arms around the groom's neck or shoulders. Below are other successful wedding photography poses:
- The bride and groom hug each other around the waist with both hands and look eye to eye.
- The bride smiles at the guests, but the groom does not take his eyes off her.
- The guests shower the couple with rose petals, the bride and groom kiss.
- The bride and groom look at each other and touch their foreheads.
- A second before the kiss: the groom slightly bends the bride, she hugs him by the neck.
- The groom kisses the bride's hand, which is wearing a wedding ring.
Portrait photography
Portrait photos are something you want to share not only with friends and relatives, but also later show to your children and grandchildren. To get great shots, prepare classic poses for a wedding photo shoot. They are not as emotional as a photo of the first meeting or a kiss at the altar. But without portrait photos, your album will seem incomplete. You can organize such shooting at any time of the year: outdoors in summer or indoors in winter. Here are the poses most often chosen by couples for a wedding photo shoot in the studio:
- The bride holds a bouquet in her hands and lowers her head slightly.
- The groom hugs the bride from behind, as if saying that with him she is "like behind a stone wall."
- The couple is leaning against each other, looking into the lens, and the bride is holding a bouquet.
- The groom gently hugs the bride by the waist and looks into her eyes.
- The bride holds the groom by the hand and puts her head on his shoulder.
- A girl hugs a man from behind, expressing love and trust in her husband.
- A couple embrace each other but look into the camera.
First dance
It is unlikely that you will be able to specially pose for a photographer during the first dance. But you can tell the photographer in advance what style your dance will be in and at what moments the most successful shots will turn out. For example, when you perform a complex lift or other beautiful dance move. The main rule for a photo shoot during a dance: the couple should look dynamic, smile at the guests and the photographer.
Here are the poses that usually look best:
- The bride and groom dance a waltz, their hands pointing at the photographer.
- A photograph of a dancing couple from above (from a balcony or stage).
- A shot of the bride's dress fluttering in the dance.
- The groom is circling the bride.
- A photo of a couple showered with rose petals, confetti or balloons.
- The groom bends the bride.
- Unusual supports.
- Curtsy of the bride and bow of the groom.
Party
You certainly will not be limited to a classic portrait style photo session. Group shots of the newlyweds with guests are the perfect decoration for your photo album. Use wedding hashtag signs, colored smoke, balloons, champagne, "Mr & Mrs" flags to spice up your shoot. Or order an LED photo zone for your wedding, which will look spectacular in the late afternoon.
For a bright photo shoot in the dark, sparklers, Chinese lanterns, burning letters “Love” are also suitable. And the best pose would be the hugs of the bride and groom against the backdrop of evening lights.

Photo tip: Dress with train
To show all the beauty of the train of the bride's dress, it must be carefully laid out at the photo shoot. Invite a friend with you to help with the dress and speed up the photography process. If there is no suitable girlfriend, then I lay out the dress, but I need to put in more time for shooting

Tip: Smile training
Go to the mirror and smile at yourself. Try different options: a slight smile with the corners of the lips, a wide one with teeth, a barely noticeable smile with only the eyes. In my practice, this simple practice is very effective for getting cool portraits.
You can fix the result on the love story of a photo shoot before the wedding.
For example, I have a promotion for newlyweds: when ordering a wedding package, an additional romantic photo shoot can be ordered at a big discount. Such shooting will be enough to determine your winning angles and get a series of tender romantic photos.

Wedding hashtag
You can come up with a unique hashtag. Notify active guests. For example, by sending out a template of a pre-prepared message. Then everyone will be aware of the brightest events taking place at different times of the day. This is the morning of the bride and the morning of the groom. Registration ceremony and gathering of guests. Entertainment friends during a photo session of the newlyweds.

Posing difficulties
Many newlyweds think that it will be difficult for them to pose for a photo shoot.
In fact, this is not so. I help with postures. Emotionally, shooting is easy. But, newlyweds can be physically difficult. You get tired of your outfits, heels and holiday tension. This can be avoided by properly planning your wedding day. Together we do this at a meeting at the conclusion of the contract.

Anzhelika and Roman's review of my work at their wedding (short version):
Our wedding took place in the Turandot restaurant. A place with stunning Renaissance and Baroque interiors. The restaurant is very nice, but quite dark. We understood that not every wedding photographer can boast of the ability to work with light, to really work.
Already at the first meeting, the responsibility and professional approach to business were visible. Everything in order:
- Alexey is a punctual person!
- It is convenient that the payment is divided into several parts.
At the conclusion of the contract / after the celebration / upon receipt of the photo. - It was easy and comfortable to work. I was struck by his attitude and approach to shooting - everything was thought out to the smallest detail, every fold and incredibly flowing train of the dress in the photo, our every movement, interior, every look.
- Aleksey, sees and captures emotions that lasted maybe a second, but remained in the photo forever.
- Beautiful design of the footage.
Advice to brides and grooms: If you are looking for a photographer, feel free to contact Alexey! Do not hesitate, this person will do everything perfectly and you will have spectacular and impressive photos! We recommend only Alexey Chernyshev and his team!

Feedback from the groom's mother Olga about my work at the wedding Artem and Diana :
On July 10, Alexei captured the main event in my son's life, the Wedding. There was an impression that Alexey was not a photographer, but a family friend, despite the fact that we saw him for the first time (the contract was concluded remotely).
Wonderful pictures, just fabulous photos, everyone liked them, without exception. Thank you very much for the professionalism, atmosphere and memory for life.

At fun weddings, there is always time for an original comic photo shoot. Personally, I'm not the first to suggest the idea of tossing the groom. Because it could lead to falling. But if cheerful friends themselves insist on this, and the newlyweds do not mind, then I am happy to take dynamic pictures of the flying groom.

Don't be afraid to improvise. If you have any idea, be sure to express it to the photographer. Even if there are doubts that the idea is good, say it anyway, an experienced craftsman will think it through and do everything necessary to implement it. Beautiful photos are the joint work of the newlyweds and the photographer.
