Rarely do I get to capture the actual engagement, but this weekend my brother-in-law got engaged! As I was crouched down behind a tree waiting for them to arrive, I was reminded of the first couple that I photographed. I hadn’t thought about this in a while, and I have no idea why because it’s a great story! My sophomore year in High School I was in Paris visiting family and a guy (20-ish) asked me to take a picture with his camera of him and his girlfriend. As I was taking the picture, he got down on one knee and proposed. Immediately I started snapping the camera, I caught on quick! I was so excited to tell people about how I was the one that caught that special moment on camera. I realize they could have asked anyone, but regardless, I really think that moment impacted me. Though I haven’t thought about it in years, I wonder if that was really the start of my career as a photographer…Well, enough about me. On to the good stuff!
David proposed in Waco on Baylor University’s campus.
It happened to also be homecoming, so of course all of the flowers were green and gold.
I was not allowed to use the flash. …for obvious reasons I guess…
Congratulations David and Molly, we are super excited to have another Leverenz!
