Personal favourite: When it rains

I’ll be honest, out of all the weddings I’ve done photographed over the years, Claire and Reanne’s was probably hardest. While the wedding itself was lovely, the weather was particularly unkind with consistent, torrential downpours and bouts of drizzle in between.

Naturally, this weather affected not only the proceedings of the day, but also prevented me from getting any decent portraits of the happy couple.

So with the weather being what it was, I suggested we grabbed some umbrellas, go outside and make the best with what we had. I fortunately had two remote flash lights in my camera bag, so I knew that if I played my cards right, I’d get something pretty spectacular somehow.
