I prefer #2 as well. Distance allowed a greater DoF. Backgrounds have to be pretty much ignored at an even such as this.
Good Job, Christine.

Hi Everyone:

As I mentioned in another post, I was designated photog at
a family gathering yesterday which took place at the Dupage
Inn in Downers Grove, Ill.  As soon as this sweet couple
walked in, I couldn't take my eyes off of them.  My
husband has affectionately named pic 1 Dupage Inn Gothic,
which is our favorite of the 2.  I posted pic 2 for a
broader view.  The DA f4 16-45mm & 360 Pentax flash did
pretty well yesterday.  Yesterday was mostly low-light auto
focusing, which was a challenge at times,, but I've
pruned the pics & pitched about 30 & have about 100
pics.  All were converted to bw.  In some pics the flash is
a bit too hot, but converting to bw did help minimize this a
bit.  It was really tough to get non-distracting
backgrounds.  There were big screen tvs everywhere etc etc.
I even had to crop a vacuum cleaner out of one pic.  Anyway
. . .
