May 19, 2021 Earl + Amanda | Patapsco Valley State Park Proposal! | Eldersburg, MD
A little over a week ago, I met Earl, Amanda, and their families at Patapsco Valley State Park to photograph the first time their families got to meet! With both families being quite a distance from each other, and a year of isolation to boot (thanks covid), this was a well welcomed and overdue gathering. It was a chilly day with on and off rain showers, and the men gathered around the grill cooking the meat, while the women hung out around the fire.
Once we found a break in the rain, we headed out to do some family photos – and little did Amanda know, something big was about to happen. I asked her to take a step forward to position her for a photo, and behind her Earl got down on one knee. The first words out of her mouth were asking who knew this was going to happen! And then she enthusiastically said yes. After a bunch of hugs and happy tears (when Amanda’s daughter got emotional, I lost it too), their families headed back to the pavilion for more warmth and food and we stole away for a few private moments.
Earl, thank you so much for trusting me to capture the beginning of this next chapter for the two of you. I love your love and wish you both all the best!
