I am beyond excited to share more from Mitch and Maddie's proposal!

I knew from the moment I met Mitch that Maddie was a very lucky girl!

My assistant and I met Mitch at Clear Creek Trails a week before the proposal to hash out all the details and that is when Mitch told us of his proposal plans!

Maddie had asked Mitch when he realized he wanted to marry her and he told her he wanted to wait for a special day to tell her that.

That special day turned out to be the day he asked her to marry him!

Mitch had a puzzle created from a picture of the moment when he realized he wanted to marry Maddie.

He planned a scavenger hunt for Maddie to find each piece of the puzzle.

This well planned scavenger hunt included a stop to get her nails and make-up done!

The last stop of the scavenger hunt was Clear Creek Trails at which Mitch had the very last piece of the puzzle.

When we told him what an awesome plan that was and how impressed we were at all the thought he put into it, he responded with "She deserves it!"

At that point there was no doubt in my mind about how much he loved Maddie!

Then the big day arrived!

We met Mitch at the trails a little while before Maddie was to arrive!

Mitch was both nervous and excited, as expected!

Mitch told us that he had even starched his clothes for the special occasion!

Mitch had his speech written out and spent some time practicing before her arrival!

When he found out she was on her way, he created a trail of roses leading her to where he stood waiting!

This was moments before her arrival, Mitch anxiously peeking to see when she arrived!

And then the first look!

What a special moment!

Mitch met her partway, took her hand, and led her to the special spot!

Mitch began his speech!

Mitch completed the puzzle!

& of course the moment he got down on one knee brought tears to every one's eyes including mine!

Mitch and Maddie were so excited after she accepted his proposal, that they forgot about the ring and just embraced!

This is the moment when he asked her "Do you want to see the ring?"

After Mitch and Maddie had a few minutes to savor the moment we walked around the trails and got a few shots of the newly engaged couple!

Have you ever seen two people more happy!?!

Maddie is so gorgeous and has a beautiful smile!

Thank you so much Mitch, for choosing me to photograph your engagement!

I feel so lucky to have been able to capture such a beautiful and special moment in your lives!
