I agree...but since I haven't got the experience many on this site has, I would have to guess that the action shots would occur after these still shots? I am also tired of models pulling on bikini straps. Some action would be great to see...but much more difficult to pull off.

I have read that a trend in wedding photography is that after the formal photos are completed, the bride wants to put her white dress through all sorts of distress and have great photos of it. IE: jumping into pools, wading streams, etc. By waiting ater the formal shots, the action shots can be taken.
