On 12-13-14 I documented a lovely lakeside proposal. Adam had scouted Independence Grove the weekend before to find the perfect spot, and we’d talked back and forth about how best to capture the moment. Originally I had planned to hide in the cover of some fir trees, but since they were so far removed from the lake, we decided it would work better if I instead pretended to be taking nature photos of a slightly closer tree.

It was a chilly, overcast day, but at about 2pm all that was forgotten when Adam and Madison appeared together walking down the path. As I pretended to take tree photos, I snapped a few of their approach. Moments later Adam was on his knee and Madison was saying YES! It was a beautiful moment with just the two of them, and I was so honored to capture it all!!

Here are some photos from the proposal and check out her gorgeous ring at the end! *swoon*

Congratulations!
