One of the busiest weeks I've had in a long time, and this would be the week that I choose to blog every day 😩 . It's late (literally the 11th hour) BUT it's happening! Lol
I am so happy to share the Wright Family story with you this evening! I briefly mentioned yesterday that we have a long history with rain affecting our work over the years, and today you get to hear the story!
I first met and worked with LaToya & Johnny in 2014 when I was contracted to photograph their Spring 2015 wedding in Chicago! Prior to that though, they were going to travel to DC for their engagement session!
And wouldn't you know it... The entire day of their December 2014 session was a chilly and rainy one. But not just light rain. Dark, 100% cloud cover rain 😩 . Because they were flying in for their session though, we didn't have an option to reschedule, so we shot their entire session in and around their hotel! At the very end of their session, we were able to sneak in a few shots outdoors, and in the end, we had a great time together :)
It's May 2015 and the day of their wedding arrives! But what's in the forecast again? Rain! Oh, and more rain! 😩 Fortunately they had awesome venues and decor for both their prep and ceremony/reception, so we were able to capture their day beautifully despite the weather being a drag.
The ONLY day that rain hasn't threatened our work together was in August 2015 for Toya's 1:1 mentoring session! Lol. And we are going to see if we can repeat this success with our upcoming session in Chicago this May!
Fast-forward a few years to September 2017, and baby makes three! I was so looking forward to photographing Toya & Johnny with their new baby girl Amaryah, but it wouldn't you know it... It rained the entire morning of their session. But, we're kind of pros at this now (lol) shooting indoors/making whatever we have work- and doing so beautifully :) This was no exception!
I absolutely love and appreciate LaToya & Johnny for trusting my artistic vision regardless of the circumstances we're presented with. It's been an honor to document their love story and I can't wait to continue document their beautiful family's growth for years to come!
