I'll throw in my very non-expert opinion here, having shot just a few weddings basically in your position.
The dress in the first shot is blown out. I might have angled the vertical dimension a bit lower to capture the full length portraits and avoid so much "dead space" at the top.
The composition on the second one is ok, but the eyes are rolling all over the room (bad grammar intentional). Since I've never shot in a paid position where I had the authority to exclude other photography during the group shots (not that I would even then), I generally defer first to the "guest" photographers, telling everyone to take their turn one at a time, and to speak up before the photo to get the subjects looking at them. Then I take over the attention and get everyone to look at me for however many shots I need to take of that pose. BTW, it's always good to take a few shots of each pose, because you're almost guaranteed to have closed eyes in different shots. I'm sure the pros will be in shortly to fill us both in on a better way to do this (I'd appreciate that, too). :)
The fill flash was done excellently, but the background is very contrasty and thus distracting.
This is just MHO, and probably doesn't amount to much. Also, please don't feel bad - I've made most of these mistakes myself (and managed to pull off some others that you didn't think of). :o ;)

Agreed with Rune on the trees. Nice composition otherwise. I'd move to the other side of that tree line and shoot the barn from several angles. Looks like a lot of potential in that building. If you want the fence in the image, try it from the other end. Maybe the trees won't get in the way. The image also has the leaning-to-the-left feel to it.

My spouse and I have been notified through I-797C notice of action letter of the interview for (form-1-485, application to register for permanent residency). They require us to bring along a checklist of items for the interview including form I-864 that needs to be attached with Tax returns and W2 or certified IRS printouts.
Both of us have been in US for 15 years holding F1 and later H1B visas. The problem is that one of us (who is the dependent) has worked in several organizations without authorization. We would like to know what cause of action to take to mitigate the problem as well as the worst-case scenario in terms of our ability to obtain residency. Any advice, particularly those who know of someone who has faced a similar situation will be appreciated.

Hi All,
I have efiled for my AP and EAD. I have received the RN for the same. I am planning to travel out of country by end of November. I am pretty sure AP will not be approved by that time. I am planning to travel on H1B visa. My attorney tells me that AP will not be approved if I travel before it is approved. I have to be in the country in order to get the AP approval. Is that true?
Thanks,
DesiXP
no, Its not true. AP can be approved while you're out of country.

If you are efiling EAD, you dont have to send photo graphs - USCIS will send FP notice to take a picture. That picture will appear on your EAD.
It is required that you send photos for your ead as they put your picture on the actual ead card. I did not apply for AP so I am not sure about the requirements for that. Good luck to you.

If the position you are being sponsored is 50% or more different than the position under which you have gained your experience, then experience gained in the same company can be counted. Your attorney somehow has to show that the postion you have now is more than 50% different (duties etc) than the new one. This is a tricky one and you would need a GOOOOOOD attorney to do that.

I am surprised How NU is achieving some of the web faxes. Their home page makes you send a email/web fax to Dems&Reps before it lest you in.
neoneo,
It sound so weird that the GC holders you mentioned dont want to register. Sweet! Tell them that by registering on IV, their GC will not be revoked.
nice reply!
Its good to hear that GC holders are also willing to help us. Have them register on our site and request them to make phone calls. If you know US citizens tell them too. Tell them to mention that they are US citizens when they call lawmakers.

Alexey - I only have a very basic understanding of Grids in both Silverlight and Flex! With that said, the Grid control is fairly complex in both Flex and Silverlight. Porting between them might be tricky, but I've never tried so I am only guessing.
I'll pass your feedback on to some colleagues who may either have an answer or use your feedback for future Grid-related improvements :)
I'm going to play with Grid a bit inside Blend and see if I can come up with a workaround.
Cheers,
Kirupa

Hi, I am currently on my 5th year H-1B visa. I have an option to stay with the same firm and they will help me apply greencard. But I am also considering an opportunity in Bermuda for a 2-3 year program (with the same firm).
My question is if I come back to the US after 2 years, will I be able to apply H-1B visa again? Will it be a whole new H-1B petition/application process subject to the H-1B cap?
Or will it be just another H-1B renewal process following my previous two terms?
Do I need to wait for another two terms of H-1B to expire before starting the greencard process?
Can I ask my currently employer to apply for greencard concurrently while I am working outside the US?
Thanks,
E

My understanding is that you can transfer existing H1B. I am not a lawyer.If you have a copy of your H1B approval notice, you should be able to transfer to your new company. However, if you may have to visit US consulate back in your home country for Visa. You may want to double check with immigration gurus.

You will apply at the local SSA (Social Security Administration) office and not at USCIS. Your card will be mailed to you within 15 days in most states.
Please forgive my ignorance Gurus but I want to know when EAD is approved, how would one receive a SSN? Does that need to applied separately at the local USCIS office? If yes, then as per my understanding this would mean a further delay before one can start work, since it takes time to receive a SSN.
Correct me if I am wrong.
I am referring a common scenario for all H4 visa holders who do not have a SSN.
Please share some knowledge on this.

Here is my understanding after I read the report.
There is a law that says that I-485 applications will have to be processed within 120 days. According to USCIS interpretation, the clock ticks only after FBI name check, this check and that check. But the supervisors/adjudicators have authority to bypass the check and process the application after 40 days of no reply from FBI or other entities.
None of the above mentioned can be construed as legal advice.

I agree that an error in name order on an EAD is not likely to cause any major problems. However, You can apply for a replacement card by filing another I-765. If the error on the EAD is due to a USCIS mistake, no fee is required. However, if you caused the error by providing incorrect information, then you will have to pay the full $340 filing fee again.

I don't intend to get anyone's hopes high as I am not sure if this page on the USCIS website is an updated one or is an older one, but it says PP is available for 129 & 140.
