We turned what could have been a dreary rescheduled engagement session into a notebook-inspired romantic shoot in the rain at Oak Mountain State Park! Like I've mentioned in previous blog posts, I always send a "one week out" email before engagement sessions. It includes a weather forecast, as well as some backup plan options for if the weather is supposed to be crazy. We knew there was supposed to be some rain, but Jeff and Kassidy were down to go ahead anyway!


I'll be honest — I don't think I've ever gotten rained on as much as I did at this session! But this is what Alabama is like in the fall, and we weren't scared of it! I called them again on my way down from Gadsden to Birmingham to make sure we were still good, and they were. So we broke out the umbrellas and rain jackets and went for it! No regrets, either. Their engagement photos could have come straight out of a cozy fall rom-com.
