some of you who follow us on twitter have asked us about our recent update, ‘probably our most interesting engagement session yet!’ well here is your answer; we shot this session during a downpour in the dark- half outside half in a library. whaaat?! we called timothy and jessica earlier last wednesday expecting to reschedule; instead they said they were up for some ‘different’ photos so we grabbed a couple of flashes and jumped in the car to head to athens!
we met them at the library, toweled off (why? who knows.), and dove back into the rain to start shooting. to be honest i was scared. looking up through the rain into the dark, locked academic buildings around us i had no idea how we were going to make this happen. luckily, jessica and timothy are the sweetest, most patient couple in the world. they talked to us, entertained each other and jumped at whatever insane thing we suggested. they stood in the rain while we tested flash angles- chatting away like they didn’t even realize that they were chillin’ in a flood.
we finished up in the library where i welcomed the green florescent light like i never have before. as we shot them cuddling through books i realized how amazing these two are. nothing can stop them. i never saw a hint of frustration from either of them regarding soaked jeans, sharing an umbrella or strange looks in the library. they spent every second together being together- talking, laughing, cuddling- and it was incredible. no doubt when they’re married they won’t let bothersome things like taxes, laundry and bills get between them. because they’ll be together. and when they are together, they are together.
my fave! i love how all of the green showed up:
the rain…the rain…the rain.
so many people are going to wish it would rain for their engagement shoots now.
and rightfully so.
That fifth image is INSANE. I LOVE it :)

i love the musty smell of an old library! especially on a rainy day!!! and there is something very scandalous about rolling around on the floor between stacks of books after hours… ;) this is such a romantic shoot!
