Hi Cal, I will be shooting a wedding next Saturday. I like this shot. Good idea! It will give me some consideration to do the same. Something different than the tradional poses.
Cal, I have never shot a wedding, but I have been paid to shoot where there are a number of people involved. So, I know there is a tremendous amount going through our minds.
On this shot I like the idea and relaxed pose of the couple. I am not sure I would have left the flowers and purse in the shot, but my wife said they should stay. So, if it were her picture trust me they would stay! Also, I would have him unbutton his jacket and have her head tilt in to touch his to add to the relaxed atmosphere you are creating here.
The lighting looks very nice here. Good balance between flash and ambient, looks like its off camera left difused. Whatever you did here its nice.
I hope to assist a local pro this spring/summer on weddings so if I get to shoot I will send them up.
