For the aspiring photographer out there — LIFE.com asked professional photographer Tyler Stalman to offer insights on portraiture, lighting, and composition. Today, we’re featuring three of his tips.
Of this classic LIFE photograph by John Loengard of the Beatles in a pool in Miami, Stalman says:

Like this Loengard photo: you get all this extra depth in the picture, and there’s so much going on at once. Don’t be afraid to shuffle people around when you’re doing a group shot.
