Nicole + Zach

After spending the first two years of their relationship long-distance between Wyoming and South Dakota, Nicole moved west to join Zach. Enjoying the ability to spend more time together, they took a weekend trip over Memorial Day to Alcova Reservoir in central Wyoming. While there, Zach’s cousin was taking professional pictures for the marina, which brought the perfect opportunity to cover up a surprise proposal. At a scenic rock outcrop, the cousin offered to take a picture of the two. They climbed to the top of the rock for the photo when Zach unexpectedly got down on one knee and asked Nicole to marry him. After a moment of pure shock, sheer excitement rained over Nicole, and the two are now planning their happily ever after.
