The best portraits sometimes materialize before our eyes and fall right into our laps. That’s what just happened to wedding photographer Wes Eisenhauer of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, who captured this gorgeous shot of his daughter under a rainbow.

Here’s his explanation of what happened: “I ran outside to take a picture. My daughter chased after me. I told her to go back inside because she was in her pajamas and didn’t have any shoes on. She didn’t listen. I’m glad she didn’t listen.”

Since sharing the photo on Reddit and Imgur yesterday, it has already been viewed millions of times.

“I’ve been taking pictures for about 3 years professionally, and I learned how to use my camera by taking pictures of my daughter,” Eisenhauer tells PetaPixel. Here are some of the portraits of his daughter he made over the past few years:
