It's a nice capture
With people shots it's all about the composition to me... and getting them at that magical moment - that captures their best bits (ie the ones that those that love them love about them, could be a smile, an expression, anything)...

Having people 'pose' obviously provides you with the opportunity to improve the technical aspects of your portraits.
That said.....If I could pass on one general 'tip'....it would be to try and capture people as naturally as possible.
