Took these photos in order to get one to have printed in the paper with the engagement announcement. Couple was only in town for the morning....this was a "let's take the shot after church" setup.

Nice beautiful day -- and lovely fall backgrounds...but it was very bright. So I took them next to the building in the shade....with some trees behind them...it was a head and shoulder's shot anway.

Shot with the 85mm f1.8 and 550ex for fill flash.

I'm not sure which is the best....they all are of the same pose:

    They're all nice but I like the second one the best. It's tighter on their faces and they both have nice smiles going. I hope you don't mind me playing with it a little, I've become a bit of a photoshop-aholic, I'm afraid!

    Not much really, it was a good image to start with. I upped the contrast slightly, and burned the white areas in the middle (not very well, I must say) because I thought they distracted form the faces. Then I cleaned up his blemishes a bit and sharpened it a touch.
