I LOVE IT!!!!! I think I may like it better without the faces showing. For me, had the faces been showing, it would have been too much of a personal portrait type of photo. Like this -- it is truly art and the emotion of the scene becomes the subject rather than any particular couple. I think you did really good, and I bet they LOVE their engagement photos if this is any indication of how the whole shoot went.

Nice capture - does nothing for me personally, but it's interesting. As a candid it doesn't evoke any feelings one way or the other - I'm just not moved by this at all.


I think this is a great image. It tells a great story, even without seeing the faces, it totally evokes emotion. Veeeery nice shot...

Good storytelling. I could easily see this as a movie poster or an advertisement for jeans.
