Sarah & Jim became fiancés on a romantic, cloudy afternoon in Virginia. Jim told me the location, and together we chose the spot where he would pop the question. To keep the secret, I sat down alone at a table in the guest area, enjoying the views of Breaux Vineyards. All the while, I had my camera + long lens ready to go.

Although Sarah was waiting for a proposal any day now, he still caught her by surprise! Jim booked me for a combination proposal and engagement photo shoot, so we got lots of fun pictures afterward.

Vineyards are my jam year-round, and you can see why with this winter proposal. Congratulations, lovebirds! Also- look at that ring!
