Seneca, nice shot. Remember the rule of thirds in your compositions. The photo would have more impact if the couple were moved over slightly. They are dead center.

Very apt suggestion, Hackbone.
Sitting quietly, doing nothing. Spring comes and the grass grows by itself.

We've all been there and done that. Just take your time and set up each shot. Just because it is digital don't go and shoot off hundreds of frames. Take you time, set it up, step back and review it then take the shot. That makes a professional, the overshooter is just a person with a camera who thinks he/she is a professional.

I know this when I leave my house but once on location I start the rapid fire. Thanks for reminding us "almost there's".

Robert, not just you......I have a fight with this also. It is so easy to fall into. Look for correct light (find the shadow highlight area) then put your subject in a correct pose but start with the feet and work up. If you have two of anything eyes, legs, arms, ears etc put them on different planes. Consider your background and what do you want to do with it, in focus or out. Even put some small pieces of tape on your lens (with filter attached) to alter the bright out of focus specular highlights in the backgound. Work for expression and remember ESP/expression sells portraits. Take the portrait and then study the image and make a change if necessary.
It may sound strange, but I'm bothered by the artificial fountain in this image. It's a distracting element for me in an otherwise idyllic setting. I realize you had no control over this, but I think the entire photo would have been much stronger with the couple in the left 1/3rd of the image and no fountain in the water.

Jiro, not to be funny or obscene but after your comment I began to wonder where her hands were.
