Quinton used to be one of my middle schoolers in our churchโs youth groupโhe and a few others nicknamed me Uncle Dale back in the day (๐คฃ๐คฃ).
A couple weeks ago, he texted me and said, โIโm proposing to Bailey at 6:30AM at Lake Overholserโcan you be there?โ Iโm a morning person, so that was no problem. But I had some doubts about whether he could get his girlfriend out of bed that earlyโฆ I canโt even get Bre to wake up before 9 without bribing her with donuts or a bomb pop (those 3rd trimester pregnancy cravings)๐คฃ
I showed up as a very casual โmorning walker,โ camera hidden under my jacket like a rom-com spy, and when they reached the spot decorated by his friends, I popped out and snapped a few shots of the big moment!
Spoiler alert: they actually showed up on time.
Bailey is the nicest human being ever and Quinton has such a great heart! So proud of this full-circle momentโand so honored to capture it.
Congrats, Bailey and Quinton ๐โค๏ธ
Would you prefer an early morning or afternoon engagement?
