Rachel & Christopher

Balsam Grove, NC

These photos are proof there can be storms all around, but the most beautiful light can be just overhead. Seriously, the gorgeous light rays in these photos are brought to you by: giant thunder clouds.

Rachel and Christopher had already been awesome about rescheduling because of rain once. This time, we decided to dance in the rain if need be. We were blessed with the most stunning light and cool breeze of the entire summer. The pond on their family land is stunning! Engagement photos always hold meaning, but there is something special when the location is not only beautiful but meaningful.

Rachel and Christopher, thank you both so much for being willing to risk the stormy weather! I cannot wait for your September wedding!
