Will you Marry me......?

Ok,so now let me tell you just how sly Josh is. I was working a wedding when I got a voicemail from Brandi's boyfriend Josh. He really didn't go into any detail over the phone about what he needed, so when we were finally able to talk that next Monday, he filled me in on the wonderful surprise he had for his future bride to be! He was going to propose! I was speechless for a moment, because I was so honored that he wanted me to be in on their forever! I had never been with a couple for a proposal and let me just tell ya, it isn't easy. My eyes were getting misty and starting to run, and for a photographer, you need your sight, and at that moment, mine was giving in to the tears. But anyways, back to the story. So, he sends his lovely lady 11 roses to work that Friday before the portrait session. He is sure to make a big deal about one of the roses missing, just to keep her off the diamond trail. And he works it out with a friend that works at the floral shop next to the Carter House, to leave the 12th rose waiting for Brandi. And so he did. When we got to the Carter House I was nervous, and just hoping I wouldn't mess something up and I know Josh had to be feeling the pressure as well. So getting the nod from Josh, a little ways into the session, I take Brandi off by herself for some pretend shots, just to buy Josh some time. And from the corner of my eye, I could see him walking back with the rose. I had Brandi step out into the sunlight to see her soon to be fiance' holding her ring and her rose. And this is the part where my eyes were filling up, and the group touring the Carter House were holding their breath nearby. Josh had filled them in on what was about to take place, when he had gone to get the rose. After it was all said and done, there were tears, clapping, shouts of Congratulations and well wishes, but the most important thing was that SHE SAID YES! It was simple and sweet and tells the story of how Brandi won her Josh....forever! Much Love.......
