As the saying goes, “The best-laid plans of mice and men often go astray.” Rain has become a symbol of this: it’s a curveball that nature throws our way and it can dampen nearly any mood (literally) or break down any plan we might have had. But that makes it all the more special when something incredible is able to break through the rain.
That’s exactly what happened for this adorable couple’s engagement photo shoot. You might know that Florida tends to have truly epic rainstorms, and the rain that poured down on the day of these two’s engagement was no exception. Not only did the rain make the outdoor atmosphere of the Magic Kingdom a bit less welcoming, but it threw a wrench in the schedule for the day too.
And yet, in spite of everything, this groom-to-be stepped out from under the umbrella, got down on one very wet knee, and made this one of the best days his soon-to-be wife will have in her life. Clearly, it was a good call, because do you see her amazing smile? She couldn’t contain her excitement, and the rainstorm seemed to fade away purely from how bright and joyful she was.
This engagement photo session was actually special for a few other reasons too. First of all, it was planned as a gift for the couple by the groom-to-be’s mom. It was a pleasure to plan it with her, and I can already tell how excited she is to welcome her future daughter-in-law to the family! Second, we received a special extra treat: the ability to get this sweet couple’s daughter in their engagement photos. She might not grasp what’s going on, but in the years to come, I know that she’ll treasure this special day and I’m thrilled that she’ll have these engagement portraits to look back on.
