I love the "almost kiss". At my engagement shoots all the time I'll instruct the couple to get close ... to almost kiss ... and to "hold it". I torture them ... hold it, hold it, hold it. I usually get a great reaction out of them as I make them wait for it because I tease them as they know it's coming and they just can't wait and it's almost like a magnet that they can't separate until POW there it is. :-)
The thing is, the kiss itself usually just smashes the faces together and doesn't really look all that great in a picture. But that moment of anticipation "just before the kiss" is often the best moment of all. So if you can capture it naturally, so much the better. But if you have to set it up ... it's not that hard to do. :-)
