Rain-rain go-away… seems to be our mantra as of lately! Despite hurricane Irene that came through a couple weeks ago, Chris + Clare had a beautiful wedding! We lucked out being able to do a first look outside before it decided to pour; which was fortunate since those were the only pictures we were able to do outside that day. It’s weddings like this that make us reflect and sometimes see more clearly that the importance of a wedding isn’t about the decor, the guests, the reception, or even having ideal weather, it’s about two people who become one regardless of anything that happens (ahem…hurricane!), and Chris + Clare are one of the sweetest examples of this.
