As photographers, we always have an eye on the weather. In a way we are amateur meteorologists. So when it started raining on our way to Sarah and Jim’s engagement shoot we were shocked and disappointed with our lack of weather forecasting skills. We met them at the beach in the rain and broke the news that we’d have to reschedule. Our cameras dislike the rain even more than we do! One hitch, Sarah and Jim were driving home to New York in the morning. They managed to switch things around, bring their dog, and try again the next evening. Everything went perfect the second time around. We managed to fit in a formal shoot at Salvé Regina in Newport, a casual beach shoot, a “fisherman American Gothic” reenactment, and an EndlessSummer II movie poster redo. Oh and Sarah lost the one key to their car on the beach which Melissa found just before it got too dark! Multitasking at its very best! As surfers would say, it was a bitchin’ session.
