Pastor Begay will soon be meeting the Lord. I was asked to photograph his large family ( Cocopah Tribe and Navajo Nation) and I was honored to do so.
Pastor and Mrs. Begay

I think this would make the best headboard above a little boys bed...blown up on canvas.
My contacts over at Smugmug can do that ;)
Ivory Lace and Creme Bow
This was quite a lovely dress. Took my breath away...actually. I could not stop admiring it through the lens of my camera.
The Proposal
I was walking through Central Park when something subtle grabbed my attention off to the right. Before even realizing the magical moment I was witnessing...I raised my camera...and ....yes......this really cute tattooed guy in a hat stood before a beautiful blond in a flowing dress and then got down on one knee. I began to shoot. 
This sweet sweet couple were in their own little world. It was a long while before they realized I was even there.
Seriously, this might've been the most special moment I've ever had as a photog.
I must tell the story of how he proposed...beacuse it is so darn lovely.
So he hands her a hand bound packet of 8x10 photos. She is flipping through the images of their "married couple" friends who are smiling big and holding up scripture verses. Each married couple is encouraging this "dating couple" in the Word. The last photo in the packet is a photo of a ring.
That's when he gets down on one knee.
How adorable is this guy????????? What a great proposal. 
Soooooooooo.....because I saw all the Scripture verses when they showed me the packet.....I say, "Are you guys believers?"
It is the perfect ending to my story....
...."Yes!!!!!!!!"
I took their contact info and promised to send along the photos.
