The Grand Proposal

This is on top of the Grand Teton in Wyoming. It was an amazing alpine climb that we started from the moraine below the Lower Saddle at 3am. This is not staged as I caught my girlfriend (fiance) totally off guard! I set up the camera on a tripod for a shot which is nothing out of the ordinary. After taking a picture I asked her to stand up while I got down on one knee and pulled the ring out of my jacket pocket. She started crying and happily accepted. Luckily I had the wits about me to reach into my pocket and engage the shutter release remote to capture this moment! I got some amazing pictures on this trip to the Tetons but this is certainly my favorite! Hope you all enjoy!
