I got a text on a Wednesday asking if I were available for a secret proposal that Saturday. Evan had told close friends and family members that he planned to propose to Kayla on top of Enchanted Rock in Fredericksburg, Texas. They responded with: "That's great!. Whose your photographer?" A puzzled Evan asked: "Photographer? I need a photographer?"
Evan, Evan, Evan. If a tree falls in the woods and nobody hears it, does it make a sound? Of course you need a photographer! (I don't really believe this, but if it helps my business, why should I discourage this new fad?)
So, that Saturday, I find myself driving 70 miles to Fredericksburg, sitting in line for an hour to get into the park, and then climbing Enchanted Rock in the noonday sun.
What I do for love. Part of the fun was that Evan and I had never seen each other, so there was a secret agent quality to this assignment.
Evan & Kayla were/are adorable. And, if Kayla regretted getting caught on camera all sweaty, and in her exercise clothing, she was a good sport, and didn't show it. A diamond ring always makes you look good. So, as one very satisfied photographer, feeling good about being allowed to participate in one of life's most enjoyable moments, I only have one question: How do I get down from this thing?

This is a very nice post. It is also very helpful for us. I have been searching for types of posts. Some days ago I read an article about the post. But this better than the post.
