Engagement Photos

So, this was my first attemp at "professional" photography.  Luckily, it was for my cousin, so the stakes weren't quite so high.  I was still really nervous though and didn't really know what I was doing.  I think the biggest mistake though was the timing:  we met in the late afternoon, so the sunlight and shadows were brutal.  You can tell that in the pics.  Oh well, at least now I now that's not the best time for portraits!  Oh, and for any hardcore peeps, these were shot with a Nikon D40 with the built in flash.  Anyway, here's a few of my favorites...

(ok so these aren't good thumbnails...make sure you click on it to see the whole pic!!)

ooh! I really like the one of them standing on the corner! You're pretty brave to do those pics. I'm horrible at posing people, so I couldn't do portraits.

That's the one they ultimately chose for the paper!
