What to Do If It Rains on the Day of Your Photo Session

1. Choose clothing that will work in rainy weather conditions.  While you’re choosing an outfit for your shoot, choose a few items that will work if it rains too.  For example, pairing your cute dress with some rain boots and an umbrella works really well.

2. Do your best to stay calm.  It’s important to remember that your photographer knows how to make the best of different weather conditions, so while the skies might look gloomy, your photographer will know just how to take advantage of this to make your photos look amazing.

3. Change your location.  If your shoot was going to be outside, why not think about a few indoor options that would work just as well – even your own home can make for some beautiful portraits.  And who knows, the weather might just clear up after an hour.

4. Trust your photographer.  Your photographer wants to give you the best possible results so listen to his/her suggestions for how to make the most of your photoshoot if it does start to rain.

5. Move your shoot out by an hour or two.  Speak to your photographer about the possibility of moving the time of your shoot to see if the rain clears up.

At the end of the day, the more you embrace the weather and just have fun with it, the more amazing your photos will look.
