So there I was with my camera, walking around like a tourist, when this cute couple walked up to take in the view. And then the guy got down on one knee, and there I just happened to be to catch it all. It was fantastic!!
When John called a few months ago to tell me he planned on proposing to his long time girlfriend, I was super excited for him. And then he told me he wanted to propose with a view and my camera… Ummmmm, YES!!
Isn’t her ring GORGEOUS!?
Thanks wind! Your a pal.
♥ ♥ ♥
I don’t know why, but I really love this one.
Tara’s parents were able to be here to celebrate, and I of course had to stick them in a few photos too!
Your folks are ADORABLE.
Mmmm…. I love these, too…
This, Tara’s mom told me, is their signature pose. ♥
