I often get asked, “Is marriage proposal photographya real thing?” The answer is yes and there are very good reasons for sharing the monment with a professional photographer present.

The Great Smoky Mountains National park is a place of beauty year round - and lends itself to making a marriage proposal all the more romantic year round! Austin proposed to his love, Belle, in Cades Cove . . . and she said yes! Look at their pictures and tell me they are not wonderfully in love!

Ryan and Jen were the inaugural couple to propose in my spot I have named Little Bear Valley in beautiful Cades Cove. And a bear was spotted! The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a place of beauty and romance - and these two added to that! Another great marriage proposal!
