King Gillette Ranch: Allyson and Matt's Engagement

This past Sunday I couldn't help but smile from ear to ear when I heard how Matt proposed to Allyson. There was one part in particular, however, that has still left me grinning and cramping my cheeks. Moments before Matt popped the question, he was hugging his sweetheart and holding her close. In his mind, and how he tells it, he was freaking out! He was worried she felt the square box in his pocket, worried she would figure out what was happening, worried that SOMETHING might go wrong!

Allyson, however, had a much different point of view :) Seeing as she is almost 12 inches shorter than Matt, her story is told from a lower standpoint. Moments before Matt proposed, he was holding his true love close just listening to the silence. With her head pressed tightly against his chest, she could hear Matt's heart beating. Rather, it was RACING with anticipation!! While they had walked up a little bit of hill, she couldn't figure out what had gotten Matt so worked up! haha. Thankfully, her curiosity was replaced with elation as just seconds later Matt presented her with a little blue box from Tiffany's and asked her to be his wife :)

We had such a great time with these two as we hiked all around the King Gillette Ranch, soaking in the sights, the beauty, and capturing Matt and Allyson's love. We can't wait to shoot their wedding in August!

Matt and Allyson, you guys are so great! Thank you so much for giving us the privilege of documenting your wedding. May you continually have an ear turned towards one another's hearts, both now and always.
