The Gehrmanns are renowned for photographing ridiculously adorable pets and equally adorable loved-up humans. Fortunately for us, Alex and Siobhan’s rainy engagement shoot ticks both boxes and is tooth-achingly sweet.

But first, the proposal… or perhaps non-proposal is the more fitting term. Siobhan gives us the low down. “We were driving to Bunnings and Alex turned to me and said “we should get married” and I’m like “yeah, totally” and then he goes “it would be cool if we didn’t have to go through the whole proposal ordeal and just decide together” and I said “yeah that works for me, that sounds awesome actually!”

Alex and Siobhan’s approach to life and love is perfectly reflected in these carefree snaps. Together with little Azula – their teeny black kitten – the pair seem barely aware they’re in front of a camera. As long as kisses are plentiful and kitties are safely tucked up in the car, who cares about getting utterly drenched in a crazy storm?
