Jack the corsage capture is excellent mate as all of them are, but you went the trouble and it is well worth a mention. Love the second one and how well you captured the blush. Great story of the day buddy and great work.

It was funny Jake .. our son ran in and had the corsage on his girl's wrist before I could unzip the camera bag .. I made him pose on that one .. funny how his girlfriend looked perfectly cool with it eh?

Pinning a corsage on a date. THAT has got to rank as one of boys/girls most awkward moments of adolescence. Your photo nails all that teen angst/bubbly joy. Your bevy of beauties, in their sherbert colored dresses, is a wonderful photo. They all probably played "let's pretend we're a princess" when they were little and here is their wish fulfilled. I'm happy for you that you could record that moment.
