Default The Kiss...pulled from an engagement session

My couple last night said no kissing pictures because they were tacky.

This is my couple from three weeks ago. I am just now getting caught up. Tried to limit myself on PP, but when I came to this photo, I had to play.

I love it, BD! What a great moment.

Kissing is tacky?
I'll have to inform my opponent...

Thanks Lee. I have learned that in kissing pictures it is much better to grab a moment just before or just after. The actual kiss looks a little smushed and messy. I love this one because of the antiicipation on his 19 year old face!

Yep. That's a lot of what I liked about it. Seeing the guy serious about it and the girl having fun.

Cause you can't see his hands.

Nice, creative. If they don't like this, they are nuts.

Thanks everybody. This boy is my third cousin. His friend Mike married Mary who is Erica's friend. They suggested I be their wedding photographer and when he asked his mamma she said, "He's your cousin!" Small world. This is a picture of my kissing cousin.

You captured the moment perfectly. I agree that this is nicer than the actual kiss, especially because of the expressions on their faces.

Kelly
This is a photo your customers will love.
I always tell the couple when I want a kiss picture to not really pucker just put your lips lightly together. Puckering is not really attractive

Really nice, Kelly. What a great capture of the moment. The reversed contrast between the serious boy and the playful girl really makes it stand out.
