    <---Used one of those poses recently on his first official "shoot".

    Hey I thought the empty wallet/pocket of the man while the woman admires the ring made a cute shot. In all honesty, the one on that page turned out much better then the one I did.

    The funny thing is that when I first looked at it, I thought a few of the ideas were pretty cool, but easy targets for a website like this. Then I look closer and realize that one of such photos is also by a photographer I know. I still love their work :)

    I def think *some* fun(ny) shots are always good to have in a set ... and I'm sure some of the couples requested some of the poses mwink.gif. But yeah ..., when you put them all together like this (especially with the comments) most of them look wayyyy over the top mwink.gif

    I actually enjoyed the empty pocket one, and the "evolution of our love" (or whatever the title was), was pretty cool too ... I thought ... rolleyes1.gif

    rolleyes1.gif Ha ha! That is almost as good as the Awkward family photos, only at least some of these are much better quality photos.

    Angie, where do you come up with these great finds?

    everytime i see people making fun of other people's work, I always wonder what their own work looks like..

    It's like someone else posting your photos here, and other people BASHING your work..

    Nah, wasn't trying to be "mean" here ... just thought most of them were pretty funny.

    But I do believe every once in a while we all need to step away and have an other look at the photos were are taking.

    I had read this thread when it first was posted and got a good laugh. So last weekend I shot a wedding, and as I was almost through, I asked the Bride if there were any special requests before we wrap up....I almost died when she told me what she wanted......
