As a photographer, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing and capturing some of the most beautiful moments in people’s lives. There are some stories that stand out because they are deeply personal and filled with sentimental value. Josh’s proposal to Taylor on the balcony of the historic Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas, is a story that I had the honor of documenting.
For Josh and Taylor, the Driskill Hotel holds a special place in their hearts. It’s not just a charming, historic landmark; it’s the place where their love story truly began. It was on the balcony of this iconic hotel that Josh first told Taylor those three words, “I love you.”
Fast forward to a sunny afternoon in Austin- Josh had thoughtfully planned the proposal. This day would forever connect the Driskill Hotel to another monumental moment in their relationship. He reached out to me to capture this significant event, and I was thrilled to be a part of it
The sun began to cast a warm glow over the city. I discreetly positioned myself on the hotel balcony, ready to capture the magic that was about to unfold. Josh and Taylor arrived, and as they stepped onto the balcony, you could see the memories flooding back.
With the Driskill Hotel as the backdrop and the city of Austin spread out before them, Josh dropped to one knee and proposed to Taylor. The joy and surprise on her face were priceless, and it was clear that this moment meant the world to both of them. She said “Yes!” with tears of happiness in her eyes, sealing their love with a kiss.
But the surprises didn’t end there. Josh had secretly arranged for their family and friends to gather on the balcony, ready to celebrate with the newly engaged couple. Their golden retriever, a beloved member of their family, was also present to share in the joy. The outpouring of love and support from their closest loved ones made the moment even more special.
As a photographer, it was an absolute joy to capture the love, the tears, the laughter, and the pure happiness that radiated from Josh and Taylor and everyone present. Every click of the camera was a testament to their story book like of love.
