When you're in love...

Our youngest daughter is engaged to be wed (next March). She wants me to do a postcard type wedding invitation, with a small triptych as the feature, so out came the very versatile Fuji 35mm X series lens. Thankfully we have unlimited bush at the back of our yard for a nice backdrop. It's only a matter if waiting for the sun to go down, as I don't have a flash for the Fuji.

I agree they all look good and it is a wonderful setting. Did you get one of the last pose with the couple looking at each other?

They look very happy. What's not to like?

Indeed they are happy Matt. Our youngest daughter is a treasure (as are all of our kids, of course). Her beau is a tremendous young man, respectful, considerate and kind.... and a mechanic, which always helps when you drive Fords.... :biglaugh:

Not sure Craig, there are more in the series that I haven't looked at yet.

I find the first photo sharpness a bit confronting.
There is too much different between the two subjects
being one blurred and the other quite sharp.
However I like the second one best and I also like
the third one in black and white.

Thanks for the comment Gerry. I've never looked at Instagram, so I don't know what they're about. TBH, I'm not a huge fan of the washed out/bleached look either, but my daughter likes it, so I have to do what I'm told! :)

Very nice portraits. I would like to see a little more space on the RH side of the second image to balance with the space on the LH side adjacent to your daughters face.
