That idea of just one intentional photo, like a group shot at the end, feels like a smart middle ground

I don't like those pictures, those almost always look artificial and empty. I think you can have your camera at your disposal and capture the picture of the moment as it happens. Sure, take a group shot but don't count to three as it most definitely ruins it.

I guess for me, it's more about setting a low-pressure boundary so the whole day doesn't turn into a photoshoot
