Dodging the Raindrops

All morning and early afternoon, Christina, Russ and I were facing rainy conditions, uncertain if we would be able to make our photo walk in downtown Chicago. Although we had planned several locations to visit for pictures, we ran out of time and couldn't get to them all. Maybe it was our lucky day after all. It seems as soon as we finished our (incomplete) outdoor shooting, and quickly headed off for the wedding ceremony, the heavens opened for a major downpour. You would never know that by looking at these pictures! *Click here* to view these pictures in a new browser.
