When Greg emailed me to ask about photographing his proposal at the duck pond at Virginia Tech, I was so excited! Nathan and I even went out a couple days before to scout out the location and find my hiding spot. Greg and Mahsa were driving down from Northern Virginia to visit her alma mater. Greg thought VT would be the perfect place to ask Mahsa to marry him, even though they have a rivalry going because he went to James Madison University.
The day of the shoot, I got to the duck pond early...pacing the agreed upon location to make sure no one snatched it up. Surprisingly there were tons of people that day so I was blocking the spot. When Greg texted that he had arrived, I ran to my hiding spot in the a huge pine tree and waited. The rest is history. Greg pulled out the ring and Mahsa was shocked! It was so sweet. |
