How A Midwest Thunderstorm Resulted In Magical Engagement Photos

There are certain moments in our lives — vacations, wedding days, family picnics — when rain is basically the worst thing ever. But once in a while, the rain we dread so much creates a memory we never saw coming.

This was the case for Jeff and Jessica, a young couple who recently planned their engagement shoot in the small town of Kelly, Kan. only to have it interrupted by one of those famous midwest thunderstorms.

Of course the lovebirds and their photographer, from Salt and Pine Photo, decided to turn lemons into lemonade — which resulted in one of the most enchanting engagement photos we’ve ever seen. Here’s their story:

The day started out fine, the couple is all smiles stealing kisses on Jeff’s family farm.

Their photographer Darryl thought an outfit change might give the rain a chance to stop — and it did for a minute.
