You will recognize Griffan and Rich from my very 1st couples shoot<\/a>.\u00a0 Griffan is one of my dearest friends, and we have seen each other through a lot of relationship ups and downs over the years.\u00a0 When she started dating Rich almost 2 1\/2 years ago, you could tell right away they were meant for each other.\u00a0 I couldn\u2019t be happier that they are getting MARRIED!!<\/p>\n

Rich emailed me 3 weeks ago with the subject line \u201cTOP SECRET\u2014For your eyes only\u201d.\u00a0 We emailed back and forth over the weeks and came up with an idea to hopefully surprise Griffan with a proposal, and\u2026.get it all on camera!\u00a0 I made up a story about wanting to try out a staged picnic, and asked Griffan if she and Rich would mind being my guinea pigs.\u00a0 Anyone who knows Griffan will know how incredibly hard <\/em>it was to keep this a secret.\u00a0\u00a0 I cannot even count how many times in that 3 week period Griffan bemoaned not being engaged!!! <\/em>Ha ha.\u00a0 Well, her wish came true.<\/p>\n

I could go on and on, but I\u2019m better with pictures than I am with words\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

P.s. This was the first shoot where Houston came along, and he ROCKED IT!<\/p>\n

This is in the car on the way to Discovery Park.\u00a0 Yes, she can put on mascara in a moving car\u2026and I can shoot backwards \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
