    I think you did pretty well.

    I'd go the flash route for that time of day too. Also, watch what comes out of your subjects head :)

    Venue is nice and engagement006 has some nice expression.

    One question. How the hell did you manage shots with no traffic? :eek:

    i used flash for most of them :eek: i was shooting a 70-200 2.8 most of the day....maybe thats why?

    but it was at the convention center for most of the shots! theres never cars there!

    Oh. And the new stuff--if you do it again, try and get them to look at each other in their separate shots--maybe you can make a spread from the two?

    The whole posing thing is about relationships with your subjects. Which is an art in itself--how do you make someone comfy in front of the lens?

    You want to direct the couple without really directing them. It comes with time and experience. But the shot list this guy uses is good. He obviously has some ideas before he gets there and what I'd call a bunch of safety shots to go with the creative stuff.

    Also, I really think you want some CTO on the flash during the day to warm things up.

    That mower looks serious but I bet with the reel, it cuts much nicer than mine.

    Nice picture! Perspective is cool and i love how the one blade of grass stands proud and ready for a cut!
