Picture this: a sun-kissed Vermont field, the soft rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze, and the stage set for one of the most magical moments a couple could imagine.
It’s the kind of scene you’d pin to your “Dream Proposal” board on Pinterest, only this time, it wasn’t just a pin—it was real life.
Annie, Keryn, and Bella knew exactly what they were doing when they envisioned this moment for Frank and Kate. They wanted it to be picture-perfect (literally). A pristine white blanket was spread out on the lush green grass, anchored by the elegance of a dozen white roses.
But that wasn’t all—there were white hydrangeas nestled in wicker baskets, adding just the right touch of rustic charm. And to make it even more Pinterest-worthy, white roses were artfully placed, standing tall from the ground at the back and right side of the blanket. It was like a scene straight out of a fairy tale, only better, because it was real.
As if that wasn’t enough to take your breath away, the path leading to this dreamy setup was meticulously mowed and adorned with a carpet of white rose petals. It was like walking on a cloud, straight toward a life-changing moment.
Every detail had been thought out, from the placement of the flowers to the blanket that was just waiting for Frank and Kate to sit on it and make a memory that would last a lifetime.
Now, let me tell you about my role in this little slice of heaven. I was there, camera in hand, but out of sight, hiding behind a tree like a stealthy ninja photographer.
But this wasn’t just any tree—I had to suck in my gut and balance on a rock wedged against the trunk to stay hidden. It was like trying to do yoga in the middle of a high-stakes mission, but hey, anything for the shot, right? The last thing I wanted was to spoil the surprise.
But as Frank and Kate walked down that petal-covered path, I was ready to capture every gasp, every tear, and every smile as it happened. It’s these moments that make being a Vermont wedding photographer the best job in the world.
We had been waiting for sunset, hoping to catch some cotton candy clouds and those dreamy colors that make an evening truly magical. And just as we hoped, the sky put on a show that made the proposal even more special.
Special thanks to Bella (Kate’s bestie) for stepping in as my lighting assistant—I couldn’t have done these photos without her help!
