The last mission of that week in Sydney was to once again meet up with Nancy and Jonathan for some official engagement photos. Turns out, Jonathan popped the question (on one knee, beside a waterfall... *swoon*) about two weeks after our last session, and I couldn't turn down these two if I tried, so we met up at Wentworth Park in Sydney for an evening with the Canon.
First, you've got to see this ring.
I love the heart on the side.
And it's just as beautiful on her finger.
And on this random plant. :)
Nancy is beautiful all on her own.
and Jonathan compliments her so nicely.
By this point, it was starting to get dark, and I noticed the lights coming on in the fountain on the other side of the park. It looked like a perfect backdrop with geysers of water spewing up out of the ground at various heights, each lit by a light at the base of each spout. Naturally, by the time we got to the other side of the park, the lights had turned off for some reason... but the water continued to flow at least.
By the time we were done with that area, both Nancy and Jonathan were a bit wet and getting a little cold. We hung out for a few minutes, willing the lights to come back on, but to no avail.
That is, until we started to walk away!
SUCCESS!
It turns out, the lights are on timers. Who knew?!
Never one to pass up a photo opportunity, I asked if they'd be willing to play. Nancy was easy enough to convince; Jonathan wasn't so sure until she told him to go for it. When I asked if they'd be willing to get right in the fountain and they obliged, it was sheer, unadulterated magic.
In June 2012, Nancy and Jonathan will be married, and I will be the lucky one who gets to capture the first day of their lives as husband and wife. To say I'm excited is an understatement: this will DEFINITELY be one to watch for!
