Wow, job well done. I do love the first one. It's a moment they will treasure forever.

nice pictures by the way.
Very close. I think that's why I posed them as alike as possible. The hands, legs, and face angles. Like saying...if they don't know each other, they should be together...

They are a really cute couple. Really good chemistry too.

You are correct. Overexposed it a bit...(love that in the wedding/engagement pictures) around the couple.

You're so good at the technical elements of photography that it frees you up to do that one all important thing when taking engagement pictures: have fun. They are having fun but, clearly, you are too. It shines through these photos.
Thank you very much for taking your time to write such a lovely comment. As you said, I tried to put in as much energy as I can into this photo because of the weather. (so gloomy) So, running and smiling really help. Also, having fun was the most important part.

Like I said to liverlipsyyz, he/she wasn't the only one.

Thank you all again for looking.

These are fantastic. Thanks for sharing. A great moment captured in the first one. The third one makes you wonder about what they are thinking. I love that about the image.

I love the first one--especially how her hand is reaching out for him. Really fantastic.
