If and when you do get someone in front of your camera, it's always good to get them in the position/pose you ideally want them in, and just talk to them and make then laugh. You'll get a lot of funny mid-talk photos, but you'll capture a lot of natural smiles and expressions. Another good trick is, if they can't stop force smiling, ask them to close their eyes for a while, then ask them to slowly open them. When they open their eyes, they SHOULD have their relaxed and natural facial expression!
