Engagement Photos on Sunday & its supposed to rain....HELP!

I just got ours done the other day. 1 month before the wedding. We wanted warmer weather. I had the risk of rain. Legit all day it went from 80% chance to 0%. Our back up plan was buying a clear bubble umbrella, which we did not have to use.

We did talk about doing it at a cool brewery at one point. But FH didn't want to do any inside so we didn't think of too many places. Ask your photographer if they have any suggestions about places inside.

Libraries, museums, and local colleges seem to be popular indoor choices right now. A good indoor spot has a lot of natural light (think big windows). However, if we aren't expecting a downpour, I grab a couple clear umbrellas and tell the couple to relax and have fun with it! Grab a pair of cute boots, bring some extra make-up for touch-ups, and an umbrella if you have one. There are some beautiful rain pictures out there!

Buy an umbrella. Or reschedule.

You must live near me!we considered minnewaska for ours too! So beautiful! We ended up using bear mtn state park because there were some indoor areas we could use in case of rain. Ended up with some great shot by the carousel and archways of another building. Then it wasn't raining so we went up to the lookout by West Point and took some overlooking the river.

Embrace the rain! Seriously it makes for fun shots.

Buy a cute umbrella and roll with it

Yeah. rain can make for amazing pics! embrace the weather and bring an umbrella google 'engagement pics in the rain' one of my favorites is this couple(random google link). some of their shots....especially the closeups are amazing!!!

We're getting ours done outdoors on Sunday too in Toronto. We've been checking the forecast all week. Although we did come up with indoor locations as a backup, we've decided to go ahead with the original plan and going to buy the umbrella in the attached picture.

To answer your question for indoor locations, how about Vanderbilt Mansion or Mohonk Mountain House? Found them at

There's also Boscobel House and Gardens or Peekskill. According to

http://www.borrowedandblue.com/hudson-valley/articles/hudson-valley-engagement-photo-ideas-with-kerri-lynne-photography it's a "fun, artistic town with some cool old buildings, right by the train station."

Hope these help. Good luck!

I say go for outside pictures anyway. Some girls on here have engagement picture with umbrellas and in the rain and they are stunning!

I love the outdoors rainy photos.

About other places; ask your photographer, they should know great indoor places to shoot at!

Thank you for your ideas ladies! We are definitely doing it outside in the rain. I bought super cute rain boots and I believe I have a large umbrella to match. My photographer is super excited and thinks that taking pictures near the waterfall that's there will give the rain pictures an extra spark. Now to find a shirt to match the boots and I'm good to go for Sunday!

Umbrella pics are super cute! But a good backup is a library.. especially one with big windows and maybe a lot of steps.

Bear Mountain has some very pretty indoor spots I've heard!
