Ryan planned an Asheville adventure with his girlfriend, Alex. Little did she know he was planning to propose to her on their morning hike to Max Patch!  Morning was such a good time to be up there, we nearly had the place to ourselves. We only saw a few other people, which was great! Sunset time in the busy months is typically pretty busy there!

I followed these two up the trail and around the bald until Alex stupid, dropped to one knee, and pulled out the ring he had been hiding in his pocket. Yay! These moments are the best!  The group of folks near up applauded, and Alex blushed.

We walked around the mountaintop for a bit and took some photos of the couple celebrating their engagement! It was such a warm beautiful fall morning, I was so happy Ryan connected with me and got me up there that morning, it was such a treat!

If you are planning to propose in the Asheville area, I would LOVE to capture this moment for you! I can help you decide on a great location and plan of action. I have photographed loads of proposals and feel very comfortable being in this “secretive” position.  Contact me today and we can chat!
