You might be asking, "With a blog title like that, why would you post pictures from a rainy day?" To which my reply is, "Look closer my friend, taking good photos means focusing on bright spots no matter the weather!"
This wedding was fun even though it was a cold, wet, damp, dim, pants-soaked-up-to-your-knees kind of Chicago Saturday (ironically enough, it is sunny and 86 as I write this- the weather always keeps us guessing in the mid-west!).
Moving on, my point is that we should just be realistic in saying that the weather, shooting conditions, and equipment will not always be the most ideal, but just roll with it! There is still beauty that can be found right infront of the lens and it is up to you to bring out the bright spots for your client or audience.
These 'sunny spots' are what make the composition colorful, interactive and interesting. Something that says, "so what if it was crummy weather, we still had a beautiful time and these pictures portray a valuable memory."
On this day, it was cold, wet, and my lenses kept fogging up, but thankfully the event was still captured and this couple still has some fun little moments to hang on their walls and keep in their photo albums.
