We did it! I am very proud of all 8 participants of the workshop. They braved the cold and rain. Real troopers. A fantastic bunch. And they took some lovely photos.
All week I thought of the weather and kept an eye on the forecast. Come Sunday it started raining in the morning. The persistent kind of rain. The non-stop kind. I couldn’t decide whether to re-schedule and call it off because even by English standards, it really wasn’t raining that hard, it was just persistent. Here, persistent rain can be gloomy, sun-less pitter-patter-pitter-patter all – day – long.
We went ahead anyway. My thinking behind forging ahead was “If you were shooting a wedding, you don’t cancel it just because of persistent rain.” plus I also I knew we had some kind of shelter. But it was a risk and thankfully, it paid off.
Thank you very much everyone. You all did a great job! And lastly, let me not forget to thank my lovely 4 year old for being such a perfect and happy model despite the gloomy conditions and the unfortunate mudslides!
