Karah + Dan Upper Bidwell Park | Engagement

Karah and Dan just celebrated the newest chapter in their lives with their engagement session in Upper Bidwell Park.  The smoke from the recent Northern California fires created a beautiful golden glow behind them as we documented this time in their lives.  Karah and Dan were well prepared for their session with bouquets of flowers, their wedding day guest book, and a map to document their world travels.  If you would like to see more recent engagement sessions, please click on  Tiffany and Austin, Haylee and Derek, and Kaylin and Brandon.

How They Met

Karah and Dan first met as freshmen in high school. At their first meeting, they did not initially like one another; but they were only fourteen-years-old.  And a lot changes from when you are fourteen-years-old.  During their junior year, they officially met again; and they were now actually in the same social circle and hung out together.  Dan tended to scare Karah, and she was not a fan of his flirting tactics.   Their high school had a school trip to England, and Dan and Karah went on this excursion. Dan ended up asking Karah out on a date while they were in Paris.  Can Dan get any more romantic?!

The Proposal

Karah and Dan just recently spent six weeks in Europe. Dan carried around an engagement ring in a zippered section in his wallet for six weeks.  On the last day of their trip, Dan sat down with Karah at the edge of the steep at the Cliffs of Moher. (He did not scare her!) They began to discuss their trip.  Dan then became very quiet.  Karah suggested that they start to make their way back to the tour bus for lunch, because their time was about up before the bus left. Dan started to talk again; and as he did, he rose up onto one knee and asked Karah to marry him.  Karah said yes!  Their first date was in Paris, and their engagement was in Ireland!  Dan is setting the bar pretty high for their future anniversaries!

Karah and Dan, you two are amazing together!  I loved having the opportunity to photograph this new chapter in your lives.  I took many pictures of the two of you, because you two work so well as a couple.  I know that Dan enjoyed whispering into Karah’s ear to give her the best smile and giggles.  Whenever Karah looked at Dan, I could see the love and trust she had for him from the look in her eyes.  I hope you two continue your adventures together and that you continue to create memories over the years.  I cannot wait to see where your love takes you!  I hope you enjoy some of my many favorites from your engagement session!

      Thank you for the kind words. I think Dan deserves the credit. I do not know what he was whispering in Karah’s ear, but she could not stop laughing and soon we were all laughing!
