Engaged On The Swings

Wonderful news, I just got engaged to my girlfriend Sara two days ago! We were in the famous wine town of Montalcino and found a small playground overlooking the hills of Tuscany. I told her that I wanted to bring some wine and photograph the sunset from that spot. But instead, I just took photos of us swinging on the swings. It was a quasi-engagement shoot without her knowing. Then as the sun set I got on one knee and asked her to marry me on the swings.

Sara I love you so much, and I consider myself the luckiest guy in the world. Good luck to you now that you're stuck with me!

Oh and please help me convince Sara to let us register at B&H photo-video. :)

More photos from the trip soon. Have been a little preoccupied and there's been a lack of internet connection. A lot more to post soon.
