I've read everything in the wonderful sticky but just looking for any more little snippits of great info to help!

I have my first e-session on saturday for a couple who i am shooting their wedding at the end of June.
It was originally going to be just a pre wedding meeting but I suggested a free e-session. ( I need to build up my portfolio - dont have any e-sessions...)
So I want to get them into it. Having not paid for it- they are probably less likely to put as much into it so i want to try and get as much out of it as poss... i have scouted the area we are going to shoot and theres lots of ideas running through my head...
So basically i'd just like to know funny things to say, things to relax them at the beginning. Things to make them co-operate. Basically anything that i might be glad i read here....
Planning mostly natural light shallow dof but a couple of shots i plan to use light behind the couple with some speedlights...
Thanks guys!
