Some days, taking nice pictures is easy--like when the sky opens up to perfect cloud formations, a golden, jaw-dropping sunset, and a gentle breeze blowing in the right direction so her veil trails ever so slightly behind her. On other days, mother nature pushes us to be better photographers.

It wasn't that the bride wasn't beautiful, or that their morning of tea ceremonies wasn't absolutely entertaining to watch, or that Naninas in the Park didn't have a gorgeous ballroom, or that their dance floor wasn't the party of a lifetime--Amy and Alan's wedding was everything a great wedding should be. But when downpour happened right before portrait time, we knew we were up against a challenge. A good one. And sure enough, being stuck under a single covering in Branch Brook Park actually became the best blessing we could have. Photography became the essence of what it had always been--light. And at the end of the day, we knew we hard learned a most valuable lesson--that we don't need amazing weather for amazing pictures. Thank you, Amy and Alan, for for climbing wet park benches and staying positive through it all (smile).
