You ought to consider SELLING them some of these prints. Lots of people pay big bucks to wedding photographers for this type of 'courtship' photos. Your shots are some of the best I have ever seen along those lines. When you send they the 'free' copies you promised, consider including an instruction sheet telling them how they can 'purchase' additional copies for family and friends. I promise you, they will want more prints from you. Also, did you get a model release from them? I hope so! This kind of shot does well in stock photography agenices. Congratulations! Very nice work.
