The forecast was calling for rain, but we decided to move forward with our plans to meet at Great Falls in Maryland where Nick and Sarah got engaged….and I’m so glad we did! Even though it rained for half of their session, I love that they were totally willing to keep shooting and to have some fun in the rain! They kicked off their shoes and kissed in the rain and embraced the downpour…and I love that when I look through these images I think of them as a metaphor for life and marriage…sometimes you just have to embrace the rain! And I’m so glad they were up for it because I love these!

Nick proposed to Sarah on one of the foot bridges overlooking the falls…she was gazing down at the powerful water rushing beneath them in awe of God’s beauty and power and when she turned to make a comment to Nick about it, he was down on one knee! She said yes and they spent some time at the Falls enjoying the moment before calling family and friends with the good news!

Sarah and Nick, thank you so much for trusting me with your photos! I am so honored and can’t wait to be a part of your wedding day! I hope you enjoy my favorites!
