A computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by a computing device, criteria for timing a capture of a photograph by an associated camera device; receiving, by the computing device, an instruction to capture the photograph at a time determined based on the criteria; obtaining, by the computing device, information regarding a status of one or more photograph participants from one or more wearable computing devices worn by the one or more photograph participants; determining, by the computing device, the time to capture the photograph based on the criteria and the status of the one or more photograph participants; and capturing, by the computing device, the photograph at the determined time.
