Dustin and Karina had the cutest proposal yesterday! Dustin planned it all out to the last detail! He started with leaving a letter at her house the night before for her to find the next day that gave her some instructions on where to go and what to grab from home. Then at the designated spot Karina met with some of her girlfriends who took her shopping for a new dress and shoes. After that, he had a hair and makeup appointment set up for her to go to. Then a limo picked Karina up to take her to Treasure Island Beach where Dustin was waiting. I met her at the limo to get some photos and take her down to where Dustin was. He had picked out a gorgeous overlook full of flowers with a scenic view of the ocean. It was perfect. She came down the path to him, excitement beaming on both of their faces! After telling her the most beautiful intro of how much he loved her, he got down on one knee and proposed! She of course said yes and jumped into his arms! He spun her around in sheer joy and then put the ring on her. It was just the one she had wanted! They took a few minutes to enjoy the moment, and they also took some time to pray and thank God for this brand new journey together. It was beautiful. We did an engagement session for them right there on the spot. I am very excited for these two friends of mine! It is such a privilege for me to be able to witness and document these special life moments for my friends and my clients. I really cherish this part of my job. And I cannot wait to photograph their wedding this fall!!! Congratulations to Dustin and Karina! I know God will bless your marriage, and that you two will continue to fill one another's life with joy and love for all your years together!
