How do you say "I like your smile" in your native language?

Event: Wife's convocation i.e. graduation
Place: Local University
Time: Morning
Camera: Nikon D70
Lens: Sigma 24-70 f2.8
Flash: SB800
Cam settings: A mode, f2.8, 50mm, horizontal

Dialogue -

Me: 'Hey pop, could you take a picture of me and the Mrs?'
PIL (pop-in-law): 'Yeah sure. I just press the button right?'
Me: 'Uh-huh.'
PIL takes camera from me, looks thru the view-finder and asked, 'How come it's so tight? You only get head-to-waist.'
Me: 'Oh don't worry about it, just press the button.'
PIL: 'But it's not nice if you can't get a full body shot!'
Me: 'Okay'. goes up to PIL and rotates the focal length to 24mm.
PIL: 'It still looks tight!'
Me: 'Try a vertical shot.'
PIL moved the cam to vertical position and said: 'Ah! this is so much better! you get a full shot!' *click!*

Me go and check.
Outcome: Out of focus, too much background, distracting background etc...

The old man totally ain't got a clue.

Yeah pop, whatever...

How do you talk "photography" to one who seems to think that photograpy is only about "pressing the button" and always "full shots"?

You just can't.
