Chad & Carlee — Engagement at Beaver Lake

Written By Joel Timothy

A friend asked me recently to be part of a big day for him, by capturing photos of his proposal to the love of his life. Honoured by the request, I met up with him where the surprise would take place, we made plans, and some hours later I showed up again to wander the shore of Beaver Lake at Hickory Creek Park and skip rocks. When the couple showed up, I continued to meander my way along and skip rocks, watching out of the corner of my eye for Chad to get down on one knee. He said his piece, Carlee shed tears, and a good time was had by all in the slow light of the setting sun. Here are the photos of this lovely evening. I hope you enjoy them.

love,

Joel

I'm Joel, a storyteller from a rural town in northern Illinois, now based in Northwest Arkansas. I grew up spending a lot of time out of doors, and much of my indoor time with my nose in a book, two things that combined to create a passion for beautiful things and inspiring stories. I love capturing the real moments of life, in a way that reminds us that beauty isn't reserved for the extraordinary, but a part of everyday existence. In my writing and in my photography I seek to portray life as it truly is: totally miraculous, and wonderfully beautiful.
