"What if it rains?" is the question in almost every planning call — so here is the full answer. Short version: light rain often makes better photos than harsh sun, Prague has beautiful shelter everywhere, and if the sky truly opens, we move the session for free. Nobody proposes in a downpour.
First: rain is not the disaster you think
Overcast light is the most flattering light there is — soft, even, no squinting. Wet cobblestones mirror the lamps, umbrellas make intimate two-person worlds, and drizzle empties the tourist spots. Some of the most atmospheric proposals we've photographed happened under grey skies.
Prague's built-in shelter
The city is full of covered beauty: the Rudolfinum's colonnade, the arcades around Old Town Square, the Municipal House arches, Old Town's vaulted passages, and the grand cafés for a warm, dry finale. A proposal under a baroque arcade with rain falling beyond it is genuinely cinematic.
How we actually plan for weather
Every session gets a sheltered plan B agreed in advance, so a shower means a calm switch, not a scramble. We watch the radar together in the days before; often it's just a matter of shifting two hours earlier or later around a front.
And if it's truly biblical
Genuine washout forecast? We reschedule within your stay at no cost — it's in our standard terms. The proposal happens in weather you'll love the photos of, full stop.
