You’ve finally corralled all of your friends together for a night out – or, better yet, a reunion. The group text has been made, the location and time have been coordinated, and the guests have arrived. Now, it’s time to get some photographic evidence that you and your BFFs are finally all together. Even if you hang out every weekend, there are few occasions that don’t call for a quick group photo.

But, as any person in the 21st century will know, group photos often aren’t as carefree and effortless as they seem on social media. From getting everyone in the frame to finding a photo that you all like, things can get complicated fast. And it only feels more complicated when it comes time to caption your group photo.

After all, it’s hard enough to sum up your relationship with one friend in an Instagram caption. How do you capture the energy of your entire friend group? Putting words together that say more than just “ily” can be struggle, but it’s all worth it for the online clout a cute pic with your besties will get you. But don’t fret! Here are some quick clever group photo captions to tie things together.

Swipe for the full crew…

For those times when one group photo can’t fit everyone. Or if your crew was so big that you have to post a segmented panorama pic.

Choose your fighter

This one’s especially good if you and your friends are all caught doing something wacky or candid. Let your followers comment who they’d choose as their avatar in a duel.

Guess which one of us showed up the latest

If your photo is a group of close enough friends, then a little friendly competition shouldn’t hurt anybody. Not only will this humorous caption draw in plenty of likes, it will also boost comment engagement as your mutual friends guess who was the most fashionably late.

Reunited and it feels so good.

This one’s an oldie but a goodie. Much like those old friends you only reunite with every few months (or years), but always have a blast with.

Comment our friend group’s [insert fav TV show here] fan cast below

Let your followers decide the fan cast (assign each IRL person to a character in a TV show) of your friend group. For instance, request a New Girl fan cast if you’re eager to see which of your friends has the most Schmidt energy.

This was the one photo we all liked of ourselves.

After many shared iCloud photo albums, diplomatic group texts, and edits later, you finally have a winner. It’s time to celebrate.

For those friend groups that you almost forget exist IRL since you’re texting them so often.

I’d like to thank self-timer for making this possible

Here’s a cheeky shoutout if you and your crew decided to forego making someone the designated photographer and opted for a self-timer pic. The photo might not be as well-composed, but being able to take a group photo without anyone feeling left out is priceless.

No need for the Find My Friends app. I found them.

If you’re the type to always check that your friends made it home safely via Find My Friends, this one’s for you.
