Does anyone have experiece with this? I have a good friend who is lesbian and her and her partner might want some portraits taken, and while I'm all for it I'm just not sure how I'd go about it. (I hope that doesn't sound bad.) I am not sure what kinds of poses to suggest for them, or what all they'd generally be comfortable with, etc. Just any experience/advice on shooting would be helpful
Obviously I will talk with them and see what they want and everything but just so I can be sure to keep professional and not be acting clueless or silly..

Just threat them as any loving couple and you will be fine.
Currently playing with my EOS 1V & 5D MkII + various L-Series, Minolta MC/MD, M39 RFs, assorted 70-80's fixed lens RFs and occasional MF TLRs
I don't do couples photography but I know my friends that are same sex couples would be fine with you being open about it and asking them right out as long as you're honest about it and are comfortable with it.
