Hello Uldridge. Welcome to our forum.
We look forward to seeing your photos.
Composition…. I find the first photo a bit busy and somewhat perplexing with respect to the cables.
Their inclusion distracts attention from the main subjects.
I tried a crop and liked it better… give it a try.
I do like the positioning of the couple.
A bit provocative, but provocative is good.
Second photo… again, I would crop to remove the metal plates.
Otherwise, I think the composition is fine.
I like that the bridge is only slightly out of focus.
It does divert attention, but it is an interesting diversion.

Thank you Sir Mandrake.. I’ll try to be more specific on my subject next time…
Im still little confuse on the DoF.. actually this photo is taken on my fisrt ever photoshoot.

Things to remember to get a shallow dof and good bokeh:
1. Use a wide aperture (small number) and
2. a long focal length, meaning to zoom in.
3. Get close to your subject and
4. have a long distance between your subject and its background.

Thank you Sir Mandrake.
I’d like to use a wide aperture however my widest aperture is f3.5 as of now.
Thank you.

f/3.5 is certainly wide enough to get shallow depth of field.
