This past Saturday we had the privilege of photographing our friends getting engaged at the Luthy Botanical Gardens near Peoria, Illinois.  Conner orchestrated an amazing and romantic proposal that made everyone who was there cry.  Everything was planned out thoroughly with drawn out maps and precise timing.  Even though Plan B had to be put in action due to the weather, the moment was beautiful and family and friends were all there to get to see the proposal.  Long story short Conner has been leading Emily through reenactments of their first 5 dates with this one being the 4th.  Great choice right?!  She'd be expecting it on the 5th, he was tricky :)  After having her read a letter he had written to her, he led her to the center of the conservatory and had everyone come in and get to watch the proposal take place. All the intricate plans and jokes about queso aside, it was so exciting to see two very dear friends get engaged.  Congratulations to Conner and Emily on their engagement we're so excited for you guys!!This work by JD Maloney is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License.
