A Casual Pose

You may recall this couple from an engagement photo I posted back on 5-08-06. They were posed casually sitting in front of a tree.

I decided to take a photo of them by another tree during their wedding last Saturday, just for a contrast to their casual pose at the engagement session. But seeing that their best photos seemed to be when they are relaxed and not "overly posed," I asked the groom to just lean against the tree and then the bride to lean against the groom. Simple, but effective!

We had perfect lighting with the sun cooperating by giving a nice overcast light for this shot. We couldn't ask for a better day for an outdoor wedding at The Country Squire in Grayslake, IL. Picture Perfect, as they say...
