Sometimes, the most unforgettable moments come with a little twist of unpredictability! That was definitely the case for Maleah and Silas’ proposal in Little Rock at the Old Mill in Arkansas. You can’t tell in all of the photos, but it was POURING rain. Like unbelievable. But despite the rain pouring down like it had a personal vendetta, we pressed on and made magic happen! The downpour didn’t dampen their spirits! In fact, it made this big milestone even more remarkable. I’m so pumped to share how, against all odds, we captured a truly memorable proposal and how the rain turned into a stunning backdrop for their special moment!
