Your church photographer probably shoots in burst mode already. This turns those frames into a looping video for social instead of picking one shot and throwing the rest away.
You need a run of frames from the same moment. That's the whole raw material.
Import the burst. Edit the first photo how you want it, then copy those settings to the rest of the sequence.
Do this even if the edit is small. If the frames don't match, the loop flickers.
Export the whole edited set.
New project, import the photos.
Make a vertical sequence to match wherever it's going.
Select all, drag them in, set frame size to match your sequence.
This is the setting that matters. Each photo wants to be 3 to 5 frames.
Select all, right click, Speed/Duration. Longer than that and it reads as a slideshow instead of a boomerang.
Copy the whole run of photos, then reverse the order of the copy. First becomes last.
Delete the first and last photo of the reversed set.
Skip this and your loop hits the same frame twice at each turnaround, which reads as a stutter. It's the step everybody misses.
Nest the sequence before you crop or rotate. Then one adjustment applies to everything instead of you doing it forty times.
A sound effect or a short music bed. A silent boomerang feels unfinished.
Out to Instagram, TikTok, wherever your people are.
Good photos make this work. Church Video Made Simple covers exposure, white balance and composition, which is most of what separates a usable burst from an unusable one.
