Sometimes things just don’t go the way we plan them to. Sometimes plans fail, situations arise, and all expectations aren’t met. This happens often at weddings actually. People are late, something doesn’t match, a groomsman forgets his tie/shoes/socks/shirt/pants/etc. In the Pacific Northwest we have another thing that happens often. Rain. Sometimes it’s more than just a drizzle, sometimes it’s an all out downpour. That was the case for Jade+Kaitlin’s wedding. The thing to remember is that despite plans not always working out, is that you’re not celebrating the party, you’re celebrating the marriage, which is the only thing [ besides photos of course… :) ] that lasts. So congrats to Jade and Kaitlin for getting married and celebrating despite the rain and change of plans!

No joke, I shot all of the formals on Polaroid pack film. Awesome!
Photographed in Orting & Bonney Lake, WA

Amazing wedding. Wow.

Fantastic collection of images that I’ll keep in mind next time I shoot a rainy wedding (I’m in the UK so probably sooner than later!). Some photographers crumble under those circumstances but looks like you embraced it.
