Well Many times looking at the channels can give you a clue, but not in this case.  I googled images: palms up and came up with some good ones.  I sort of assumed his hand was "palms up."  The face is problematic.  Love those old polaroids.   However there are several "reference" photos from this wedding and the subject is wearing a tux with black lapels.  So maybe the distributor might be able to help.

Be careful not to lose the grass in the background and the texture in the sidewalk.

I'd say his hand would be palm down on the grass to support himself?

I've managed to find a reference photo for the missing face. The faceless man had taken his jacket off and we're seeing a white shirt and black vest.

Jack, good work so far!

I agree with Phil about the grass and sidewalk.  The brides leg could also use a little shading that was lost and the reds and oranges are a little too saturated.
