Paige + TJ

Sometimes no matter how much you prepare, things don’t always go according to plan. Weather in the Pacific Northwest can be unpredictable; especially during Spring! While shooting this Washington elopement at Moulton Falls, the clouds graced us with some famous Pacific Northwest downpours. As with most things in life, you just have to roll with the punches; and in doing so you can be surprisingly rewarded. The rain managed to make Paige and TJ’s love all the more organic and epic, as did the awe-inspiring forest backdrop.

If you’re planning an intimate wedding, adventurous elopement or something more traditional, don’t be afraid to leave a little wiggle room for the unexpected! What makes your wedding day memorable are those spontaneous, rain-soaked, dirty dress moments. Those are what you’ll be able to look back on and laugh, and that’s what will make your wedding or elopement imperfectly perfect. We live for those instances.
