I always try to finish a photo session with a grand finale moment. Like an epic kissing shot as the sun dips below the horizon, dancing on a mountaintop, a passionate embrace, just something to hit it out of the park and end on a good note. At this shoot, we DEFINITELY did!

Lauren grew up in the Pacific Northwest, so when I explained that it would be "very green, but also probably raining" at our location for pictures, she gladly accepted. Grey, overcast skies turned to rain as we walked around the mountains together for an hour to photograph Lauren and her husband Brian in honor of their two-year-anniversary (that very next day!). As we got back in the car to make the drive home, it started raining harder and harder and then the SUN POPPED OUT and there were rainbows and magic galore! We quickly pulled over as we passed a local park to get some final images in that sunshiney, rainy, green goodness!
