Sean + Danielle | Portland Oregon Sunflower Surprise Proposal

Danielle and I have been friends for over six years, and the moment she introduced me to Sean I knew he was the one for her. They originally met on Twitter and I remember expressing my skepticism (just like any friend would) but the moment she got home from meeting him for the first time, I saw her face light up as she told me all about their first weekend together. Not long after they had met, he took a huge leap and moved out to Portland (from New Orleans!) so they could be together. I met Sean shortly after and couldn't help but love him too. So of course when he asked for my help orchestrating the perfect proposal to Danielle, my heart nearly exploded.  

We had tried planning this perfect day a handful of times. We tried arranging a camping trip, a big hike, a weekend at the coast, and each time something got in the way. Then one of my friends had tipped me off to this sunflower field in Hillsboro - West Union Gardens. I immediately texted Sean and suggested we just plan a "shoot" here and then when he was ready he could pop the question. Sure enough, it worked out perfectly, Danielle had no idea it was happening, and we all cried big happy tears. I couldn't have asked for a better partner for my friend, Danielle, and I'm beyond thankful I was able to be part of such a monumental moment for both of them.
