Engaged 2

Summer fun with an engagement photo shoot... nothing (for me) is more

enjoyable than getting IN the water...no matter what it is...

Engaged, and "baptized too!  Great composition and use of space.  The water is a visual metaphor for God's creative force to excite lovers and shower them with nature's power.  The art of this image is that I stay dry but still feel the thrill they are experiencing.  It's a 7 rating for me.  Great job.

The moment of exhilaration is captured perfectly.  Must be seen larger to fully appreciate!

Compliments!

Fred.  I really like these engagement photos and I think the couple will love them forever.  To me it is a metaphor for how you should feel on your engagement; wild, free, exuberant.  Great job.  Dana...

I'm with Dana on the metaphor aspect. If I see it as a metaphor at all, it's about people and the power and joy of their love. If I don't see it as a metaphor, then it's just folks rollicking in the water with that same sense of joy, which also seems enough. I prefer the other photo because of the angle and composition. This one feels a little heavier and the guy is mostly obscured, her arm a little awkwardly blocking his face. In the other photo the couple is more apparent and I think, in the other one, the shooting perspective, which gives more to the sky, gives it a more uplifting feel.
