Look really nice. I like the color box on the last one. Number 3 is my fav with maybe just a little bit more fill on them. Thanks for sharing!

they are not bad for your 1st.

They do lack a bit of variety when it comes to their facial expressions. Also every one them could have benefited from some fill flash. Lastly besides the last one they are a 1/2 body lenght shots..maybe the rest of the set has more closeups and/or wider angles.

I'm with Daniel on this one. Nice shots, but some fill flash would have certainly brightened the faces and lessened the "racoon eye" shadows. Some changes in facial angles and expressions would help. Have them look at each other, look away, look down, softly smile, thoughtful looks, etc.

I will be anxious to see your 2nd engagement shoot.
